ant-dependency-viewer

Introduction

ant-dependency-viewer is a Python script that visualizes the dependency graph of an Ant buildfile.

Dependencies

1. Python 2.7
2. graphviz
3. Python graphviz package (pip install graphviz)

Usage

./ant-dependency-viewer.py -f BUILDFILE will print a textual representation of your Ant buildfile to stdout. If you would like a graphical representation rendered with graphviz, use add the -t argument to specify the output format: ./ant-dependency-viewer.py -f BUILDFILE -t FORMAT. FORMAT can be one of pdf, ps, svg, fig, pcl, png, gif, or dia. This will produce two files in the same directory as the buildfile, the dot source and the rendered view of the dependency graph.
