Add export to graphml function to widget #10

Closed enzococca closed 2 years ago

enzococca commented 2 years ago

If possible insert a function to export to graphml?

yGuy commented 2 years ago

Do you mean a function to export the graphml as a string variable to python? Could you suggest some API? like

widget.export_GraphML()?

You can already export the graph to graphml with one additional step, in an interactive manner: Open the graph in yEd-live with the button, and then use the save as file option from there.

Hi sebastian, yes I mean to export like widget.export_graphml.

I wrote a parser xml to export for yed graphml from a dot file made by graphviz.

If you are interested I can share with you

Regarding the dot file export/import. Does it do much more than the structure? yEd-Live already has basic graphviz dot file import - just drop the dot file into yed-live and it will load immediately.

I forget to write: The graphml generated I import in yed desktop after swimline I save it again in graphml. This graphml I use like connector in blender for 3D recostruction

Yes you are right. In my workflow of my system(GIS plugin in python for QGIS software) after generated a graphml with a template I open it with yed desktop to do a swimline and export in jpg.

With yed in Jupyter i think I could do all in my system without recall other system out of my. This is more confortable for an user experience.

So from this consideration It is my request.

I am not convinced that this is a useful feature to have in a notebook. Exporting the graphml feels like trying to automate the layout algorithms, which is what we explicitly exclude in the license terms. For the interactive scenario, clicking the export to yed-live button will let you save the graphml in a separate step, interactively.
