Frequently Asked Questions

  • How do I install GraphDonkey?
    It depends on what you want to do, but this page will help you achieve your goals!
  • Do I need Python/Qt to run GraphDonkey?
    No. Not if you're using Linux (or possibly Mac). It will become available for other operating systems shortly. Of course, you can always clone the repository (with its submodules) and work from there.
  • I really don't like Graphviz. Can I still use GraphDonkey?
    Of course! While it was originally built to only support Graphviz, it is no longer the case since GraphDonkey Jack-in-a-Box v0.2.0. Graphviz is still bundled by default with the app, but using the flexible plugin system, anything that turns text into (binary) image data can be used instead. Take a look through the user base to see if the plugin you desire is offered somewhere, or read up on how to create your own plugins.
  • I came across a bug. What do I do?
    Take a look at this page, or leave it with the community.
  • I have a custom language. Can I use it in GraphDonkey?
    Yes. Absolutely! If it's really custom, you might need to create your own plugin, otherwise, I suggest you'd look right here to see if your plugin exists already.
  • Do you have plans for the future?
    Loads. GraphDonkey will keep on evolving as long as there is interest by me or the community. Take a look at this page to see what I've planned for the future.
