Nodes not identified in graph #70

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create this dot file:

graph condiments {
    ketchup -- mayonnaise -- tartar -- lemon
    ketchup -- bbq
}

2. Create and run this python script:

import sys
import pydot

# first arg is the dot file
if len(sys.argv) < 2:
    exit()

g = pydot.graph_from_dot_file(sys.argv[1])

print g.get_node_list()

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The output is an empty list, I expected a list of nodes (ketchup, bbq, etc.)

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

pydot-1.0.28 with Python 2.7.1, OS X

Please provide any additional information below.

+1. 

If you have nodes implicitly defined, like:

a;
a -> b -> c -> d;
c;

Only the "explicitly" defined nodes (the ones given their own lines) will be 
accessible. It really shouldn't work this way.

Graphviz uses implicitly defined nodes as well. It would be useful to have a 
lib acting the same way.
