Making GraphViz look like Whimsical ----------------------------------- I'm fond of Whimsical look and feel, and I like how GraphViz can render nice flow charts from simple textual description. So here's my attempt to make a simple GraphViz digraph render as if it was built in Whimsical. .. code-block:: digraph { edge [color="#808080", arrowsize=.6, penwidth=3, minlen=3]; node [shape=box, fontname="DIN Next, sans-serif", style="rounded,filled", penwidth=5, fillcolor="#8010d0", color="#f0f0f0", fontcolor=white, margin="0.35" fontweight=bold] bgcolor="#f0f0f0"; {rank=same; "External Webhook" -> "Adapter" -> Mux -> Plug -> "External API"} Core -> Mux -> Core [minlen=1] "Slack API", "External Webhook" [fillcolor="#4040ff"] } Output (auto-generated by ``sphinx.ext.graphviz``): .. digraph:: services edge [color="#808080", arrowsize=.6, penwidth=3, minlen=3]; node [shape=box, fontname="DIN Next, sans-serif", style="rounded,filled", penwidth=5, fillcolor="#8010d0", color="#f0f0f0", fontcolor=white, margin="0.35" fontweight=bold] bgcolor="#f0f0f0"; {rank=same; "External Webhook" -> "Adapter" -> Mux -> Plug -> "External API"} Core -> Mux -> Core [minlen=1] "External API", "External Webhook" [fillcolor="#4040ff"] Same flowchart rendered in Whimsical for comparison: .. image:: images/flowchart.png :target: /_images/flowchart.png
