Development
===========

|PyPI version| |License| |Supported Python| |Wheel| |Downloads|

- GitHub: https://github.com/xflr6/graphviz
- Changelog: https://graphviz.readthedocs.io/en/latest/changelog.html

Installation
------------

|Binder-HEAD|

Development environment **binder** : https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/xflr6/graphviz/HEAD

Local installation
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Install in a venv_ in development mode (includes all ``extras_require``):

.. code:: bash

    $ git clone https://github.com/xflr6/graphviz.git
    $ cd graphviz
    $ python -m venv .venv
    $ source .venv/bin/activate
    $ python -m pip install -r requirements.txt

.. admonition:: Platform: Windows

    ``.venv\Script\activate.bat``
    to replace ``source .venv/bin/activate``

.. hint::

    alternatively: ``pip install -e .[dev,test,docs]``
    (same as ``pip install -r requirements.txt``)


Tests
-----

|Build| |Codecov|

- GitHub Actions
  `Build workflow <https://github.com/xflr6/graphviz/actions/workflows/build.yaml>`_
  (Python 3.8 to 3.11, experimental: PyPy 3.8 to 3.9)
- Codecov
  `test coverage <https://app.codecov.io/gh/xflr6/graphviz>`_
  (`main branch <https://app.codecov.io/gh/xflr6/graphviz/branch/master>`_)

**Run the tests** (in the current environment):

.. code:: bash

    $ python run-tests.py

Run **only tests** that are expected to ``PASS`` or ``XFAIL``
**without Graphviz** executables:

.. code:: bash

    $ python run-tests.py --skip-exe

**Run the tests** with tox_ (**installing** into a virtualenv_ or many of them):

.. code:: bash

    $ python -m tox

**Run the static type checker**
(pytype_,
supported `platforms <pytpe_platforms_>`_
and `Python versions <pytype_python_versions_>`_):

.. code:: bash

    $ pip install pytype
    $ pytype

**Run the code linter** (flake8_):

.. code:: bash

    $ python lint-code.py


Documentation
-------------

|Readthedocs-stable| |Readthedocs-latest|

- Read the Docs Project Home: https://readthedocs.org/projects/graphviz/
- stable: https://graphviz.readthedocs.io
- latest: https://graphviz.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

**Build the documentation** with sphinx_ and sphinx-rtd-theme_ (in the current environment):

.. code:: bash

    $ python build-docs.py


Overview
--------

Use ``help()`` in the REPL to shows/structure methods and attributes in dependency order:

- Introduction: https://graphviz.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#online-help-internal
- ``Graph``: https://github.com/xflr6/graphviz/blob/master/docs/api.rst#graph-1
- ``Digraph``: https://github.com/xflr6/graphviz/blob/master/docs/api.rst#digraph-1
- ``Source``: https://github.com/xflr6/graphviz/blob/master/docs/api.rst#source-1

.. tip::

    In the above, cooperative multiple inheritance classes reveal their
    (diamond) MRO structure and methods are shown in **method resolution order** (MRO),
    which should be an extension of their dependency relation...

    TLDR; you might find this presentation helps to follow the implementation.
