About:
graphviz2drawio is a command-line utility that parses Graphviz DOT files and converts them into the XML-based file format used by draw.io and Lucidchart. This enables developers to generate complex diagrams programmatically using Graphviz and then import them into these popular diagramming tools for further editing and collaboration. The tool bridges the gap between code-based diagram generation and visual diagram editors.
Key Features:
  • Parses standard Graphviz DOT syntax
  • Generates compatible mxGraph XML for draw.io and Lucidchart
  • Preserves node and edge relationships and basic styling
  • Command-line interface for easy automation and scripting
Use Cases:
  • Converting existing Graphviz diagrams for use in draw.io
  • Automating the creation of system architecture diagrams
  • Generating flowcharts from code for documentation
Alternatives:
  • dot – The standard Graphviz renderer outputs to image formats (PNG, SVG) but not directly to editable draw.io files.
