Add GraphViz as one of the diagram sources #304

Closed acrodrig closed 8 years ago

acrodrig commented 8 years ago

GraphViz has a javascript implementation that can be embedded:

This would make the diagrams all the more powerful.

It's probably going to be too slow. The demo already takes a few seconds to load on my laptop. Embedding in Quiver and doing live reload every few keystrokes would kill the performance.

acrodrig commented 8 years ago

Got it. Then other generic diagramming solutions should be added. The two offered are very nice, but not general enough in my (limited) experience so far.

ylian commented 8 years ago

Closing this but I will work on a more generic diagram library soon.

acrodrig commented 8 years ago

Take a look at:

http://jburrow.github.io/canviz/

It's an alternative library that is pure JS. DOT is a vert well know language for diagrams and it would be awesome to have it supported in Quiver.

@acrodrig Thanks. This is helpful.

nkgm commented 5 years ago

@ylian have you given this any more thought? Would be really useful to be able to use DOT in a diagram cell.
