Graphize is a django application that adds a new functionality
to the manage.py script that exports the selected models from sql
to graphical format, such as a Pajek file or a Neo4j REST database.
Disclaimer:
This software is under hard development.
Configuration:
Just add the graphize app to your settings.py file and create a
graphize_settings.py in the root of your django project directory.
You may include in this file all the models you want to graphize in
a dictionary called "graph_structure". Each element of the dictionary
is a tuple that in this first version just includes an element with
another dictionary that specifies aditional fields that we want to
add to a specific element.
A sample code could be:
from app1.models import Model1, Model2
from app2.models import ModelA, ModelB
MODEL_1_EXTRA_DATA = {'type': 'model1'}
MODEL_1_BLACK_LIST = ('unwanted_field1', 'unwanted_field2')
graph_structure = {Model1: (MODEL_1_EXTRA_DATA, MODEL_1_BLACK_LIST),
Model2: ({},()),
ModelA: ({},()),
ModelB: ({},()),
}
Usage: python manage.py graphize OUTPUT_TYPE OUTPUT
Where OUTPUT_TYPE can be:
- neo4j: Neo4j Graph Database
- pajek: .net pajek file
- sylva: sylva format file
and OUTPUT is the destination server/file.
Example:
python manage.py graphize neo4j http://localhost:9999
python manage.py graphize pajek myfile.net
