Hi, Thank you so much for this great plugin. Unfortunately, it is not currently supported on iPad devices (an information message pops up stating iPad is not supported for this plugin when you try to activate the plugin), is it possible to fix this issue? Best regards, David

Hi David,

I'm not associated with this plugin, but suspect that there is no way to complete the "Install Graphviz" step of the plugin installation within iOS.

One of the terminal applications for iOS (e.g., https://osxdaily.com/2018/12/11/ish-linux-shell-ios/) or connecting to your iPad though a SSH session might allow graphviz installation. I suspect Apple's app sandboxing would not allow Obsidian to access anything you installed via a shell. If you attempt that route, though, I would love to know how it pans out.

Thanks for the hint. Not sure I’ll find the time to work on this but if so, I’ll sure keep you updated.

Thanks for bring this up. Another option is to use some public online graphviz render solution. If you know such solutions, please share it here. Thanks.
