toolpath-dot

Generate Graphviz DOT visualizations from Toolpath documents.

Overview

This crate renders any Toolpath Document (Step, Path, or Graph) as a Graphviz DOT string. Steps are colored by actor type, dead ends are highlighted, and the DAG structure is preserved visually.

Depends only on toolpath -- no external rendering libraries.

Usage

use toolpath::Document;
use toolpath_dot::{render, RenderOptions};

let doc = Document::from_json(json_str)?;
let dot = render(&doc, &RenderOptions::default());
println!("{}", dot);

Pipe through Graphviz to produce images:

path derive git --repo . --branch main | path render dot | dot -Tpng -o graph.png

Render options

use toolpath_dot::RenderOptions;

let options = RenderOptions {
    show_files: true,           // list changed files in step labels
    show_timestamps: true,      // show timestamps in step labels
    highlight_dead_ends: true,  // dashed red border on dead-end steps (default)
};
