NAME

Gtk2::Ex::GraphViz - A Gtk2 wrapper to the GraphViz.pm module.

DESCRIPTION

GraphViz can be used to produce good-looking network graphs. Wrapping with Gtk2 allows those images to respond to events such as mouse-over, clicked etc.

By implementing callbacks to the respective signals, you can create fairly interactive network graphs. For example, when the user double-clicks a node, you can open up a widget that contains information on that node.

SYNOPSIS

use GraphViz;
use Gtk2::Ex::GraphViz;
my $g = GraphViz->new; # First do all the work in GraphViz.pm
$g->add_node('London', shape => 'box', fillcolor =>'lightblue', style =>'filled',);
$g->add_node('Paris', label => 'City of\nlurve', );
$g->add_edge('London' => 'Paris');
# Now the actual Gtk2::Ex::GraphViz portion takes over
my $graphviz = Gtk2::Ex::GraphViz->new($g);
$graphviz->signal_connect ('mouse-enter-node' => 
	sub {
		my ($self, $x, $y, $nodename) = @_;
		my $nodetitle = $graphviz->{svgdata}->{g}->{g}->{$nodename}->{title};
		print "Node : $nodetitle : $x, $y\n";
	}
);

METHODS

new;

The constructor accepts a GraphViz object as the first argument.

my $g = GraphViz->new; # First do all the work in GraphViz.pm
my $graphviz = Gtk2::Ex::GraphViz->new($g);

get_widget;

Returns the widget that can be added to any container and presented in a window.
