How to use the bcomps command: Decompose graphs into their biconnected components. Graphviz filters: acyclic, bcomps, comps, edgepaint, gvcolor, gvpack, mingle, nop, sccmap, tred, and unflatten. More information: <https://graphviz.org/pdf/bcomps.1.pdf>.

Solution

bcomps — Decompose graphs into their biconnected components. Graphviz filters: acyclic, bcomps, comps, edgepaint, gvcolor, gvpack, mingle, nop, sccmap, tred, and unflatten. More information: <https://graphviz.org/pdf/bcomps.1.pdf>.

Decompose one or more graphs into their biconnected components:

bcomps {{path/to/input1.gv path/to/input2.gv ...}} > {{path/to/output.gv}}

Print the number of blocks and cutvertices in one or more graphs:

bcomps -v -s {{path/to/input1.gv path/to/input2.gv ...}}

Write each block and block-cutvertex tree to multiple numbered filenames based on output.gv:

bcomps -x -o {{path/to/output.gv}} {{path/to/input1.gv path/to/input2.gv ...}}
