Moin,
as the subject says: happy birthday.[0]
I'd like to announce a new update, which can be found on CPAN:
http://search.cpan.org/~tels/wikimedia-graph/
The online manual also got updated:
http://bloodgate.com/perl/graph/manual/
I try to summarize the changes and new features in brief below, a full
revision history can be found in the changelogs for the involved Perl
modules.
If you have any problem, do not hesitate to open a bug at
http://rt.cpan.org or just send me an email.
Happy graphing,
Tels
Notable changes
* The wikimedia integration can output graphviz code, which means you can
use dot/neato/fdb/whatever to render the graph as PNG file
* align: left|right|center for all labels possible
* invisible edges
* enforcing a minlen for edges
* joints: edges can join other edges, or split up on the way to their
target node
* support for image-based nodes (e.g. use an icon/png as a node)
* local (per-node, per-edge) and global flow that lets you define how the
graph should "flow", e.g. in which direction the edges are laid out.
This even works with relative flow (relative to the current node) *and*
absolute flow (relative to the orientation of the, well, global world)
* autosplit nodes are much improved - they had quite a few bugs,
especially when setting attributes on them
* improved layouter, can handle groups/autosplit nodes and joints much
better
* improved HTML output, all implemented features work now on major
browsers (IE; FF, Opera and Konqueror, except for very small nits)
* Links in SVG now work correctly on Firefox (workaround FF bug)
* many, many bugfixes, improved handling of syntax and documentation
0: The first version of Graph::Easy was released 27.12.2004, but it wasn't
actually usable until very late Januar, possible later.
