Graphviz and dot system dependencies #124

Open ghost opened 6 years ago

ghost commented 6 years ago

Some graph tools use the DOT language provided by Graphviz, for example Plantuml (http://en.plantuml.com/starting). In a comparable way as the DiagrammeR package does, but using V8 system dependency.

It is easy to use Plantuml in a local Shiny with a call to the Jar file of Plantuml (see http://en.plantuml.com/starting).

However to deploy the app on Shinyapp.io, it requires the DOT executable that comes with Graphviz (see https://graphviz.gitlab.io/download/) in "user/bin/dot".

Could you please add the Graphviz system installation to shinyapps to have the dot executable ? Thanks a lot !

The way this repository works with shinyapps.io is that there are install scripts named for R packages that will be run when that R package is installed on shinyapps.io.

What R package is depending upon Graphviz?
