Hi infojunkie,
as I'm working on http://drupal.org/project/graphapi which has views integration I was wondering whether we could integrate our modules.
graphapi tries to use graph.inc data structure and supports output used by 3 modules:
http://drupal.org/project/thejit (2 displays)
http://drupal.org/project/graphapi (internal jquery-graphapi.js)
http://drupal.org/project/graphviz_filter spitting out a textual digraph through it's views-graphapi-style-graphviz-filter.tpl.php as there is no D7 version yet.
But I'd like to push code from http://drupal.org/project/graphapi to http://drupal.org/project/graphviz_filter to concentrate on the views integration and outputs for thejit.
I'm trying do document http://drupal.org/node/1389294 and sub pages to highlight use cases.
Are you interested in this effort of graphapi providing views integration?
I'm interested too in your applications like CCK Schema, Workflow Graph, Taxonomy Graph whether these can be merged into graphapi too. This is a long shot as some of graphviz node displays are hard to manage abstract in graph.inc structures.
Cheers.

s.daniel commentedThere is a D7 Version now. Has anything else changed since the last post?
For the record: I personaly think integrating the modules would be the way to go.

s.daniel commentedComing from Graphviz output from a view?.
Moving all logic to create graphs that currently lives in the graphviz filter module would be better served to reside at graph api in my opinion. However infojunkie is the one to actually decide.
Proposal:
@clemens.tolboom: Lets apply to be co-maintainers for graphviz_filters.
Create a 7.x-2.x-dev graphviz_filter branch and integrate it with graph api there. -> Let graphviz_filter focus on integrating Graphviz, providing an api to it and a text filter.

clemens.tolboomI second on @s.Daniel :-)
We could indeed more code from graphviz_filter to Graph API and back.
I'm not keen on co-maintaining but it's cool to help with the transition as a git contrib.
@s.Daniel you should poke infojunkie to apply for co-maintainer then.
