I would be keen to have support for additional layouts (as described in the documentation)
I believe that the layout can be defined as a graph attribute: https://graphviz.org/doc/info/attrs.html#d:layout
The default layout is dot
but I think it's possible to use another layout. For instance:
digraph g1 {
layout="circo";
// ...
}
For reference, the layout can also be defined as a command line argument: https://graphviz.org/doc/info/command.html#minusK but Kroki does not (yet) support command line arguments. See: https://github.com/yuzutech/kroki/issues/169
In any case, I don't think we should add each layout as diagram types. In my opinion, the diagram type should be graphviz
and the layout should be defined as part of the diagram source or as an attribute (not supported yet).
Thanks for the prompt response.
You are quite right, I hadn't noticed the layout=
syntax.
I think it would be a useful feature to allow specification of this within
an attribute to support DRY behavior (e.g. to produce different layouts
with the same source file) but it is by no means urgent. For the mean-time
the layout=
option is just fine for me.

Isn't this solved by #827 (see https://github.com/yuzutech/kroki/issues/827#issuecomment-891716477)?
That's correct, thanks. It's now possible to specify diagram options: https://docs.kroki.io/kroki/setup/diagram-options/#_graphviz
Currently kroki appears only to support the
dot
command of Graphvizhttps://github.com/yuzutech/kroki/blob/964b2ea3edfc603117d23b2e928106d66384e09b/server/src/main/java/io/kroki/server/Server.java#L85

circo
dot
fdp
neato
osage
patchwork
sfdp
twopi
In each case these could be the name of the graph, with
graphviz
remainingdot
for backwards compatibility.WDYT?
