Has anyone used this for diagramming code bases? #372

As the subject says, I wonder if anyone has tried to use Diagrams to give a pictorial representation of code? I've got a couple of relatively complex Lambdas that might benefit from that sort of approach. Figured I'd see if anyone has tried and what sort of experience it was.

I would imagine you would have to take the output of some static analysis and convert it into the Nodes, Clusters, and Edges of this library.

Here is one list of Static Analysis tools for python: https://luminousmen.com/post/python-static-analysis-tools

You might specifically looks at pylint with Pyreverse

Pylint comes with Pyreverse, with which it creates UML diagrams for your code.
