Problem

How to use the gvmap command: Find clusters and creates a geographical map highlighting clusters. More information: <https://graphviz.org/pdf/gvmap.1.pdf>.

Solution

gvmap — Find clusters and creates a geographical map highlighting clusters. More information: <https://graphviz.org/pdf/gvmap.1.pdf>.

Generate a clustered map layout from a DOT format graph:

gvmap {{graph.gv}} -o {{output.xdot}}

Generate a map using existing cluster subgraphs from the input:

gvmap -D {{graph.gv}}

Include graph edges in the [o]utput map:

gvmap -e {{graph.gv}} -o {{output.xdot}}

Specify a [c]olor scheme (1: pastel, 2: blue-yellow, 3: white-red, etc.):

gvmap -c {{1|2|3|...}} {{graph.gv}} -o {{output.xdot}}

Set the maximum number of [C]lusters (by default 0, meaning there is no limit):

gvmap -C {{10}} {{graph.gv}} -o {{output.xdot}}

Only draw cluster 2 (by default, all clusters are drawn):

gvmap -highlight={{2}} {{graph.gv}} -o {{output.xdot}}
