Add new graph command #34

Open tonybaloney opened 8 years ago

tonybaloney commented 8 years ago

To enable fast visualisation of plumbery templates, I propose a new command 'graph' to be added which generates DOT graph files and optionally saves them to a PNG file using GraphViz https://pypi.python.org/pypi/graphviz

Python already does this really easily so this should be a simple task. It doesn't need to go into endless details, but show the multiple fittings, nodes and networks and how they relate to each other.

Graphviz has been around for a loong time. Maybe an alternative could be https://graph-tool.skewed.de/ (not tested)
