Requirement

  • Redmine 4.0.0 or later.
  • ruby 2.6
  • Graphviz http://www.graphviz.org
    • There are 2ways about setting up graphviz for this plugin.

    • The one is using Gv which is ruby binding of graphviz.

      • Recommended for unix system.
      • The plugin uses fork() and IO.pipe to capture STDERR which holds error message output from Gv.
    • The other one is using external dot command which is on the PATH.

      • For Windows system, Only this way of setting is available.
      • The dot command is executed twice by the plugin when one graph is rendered. First one to render the image. Second one to create clickable map.
    • Example of installed graphviz package.

      e.g.) CentOS 5.5 using Gv.
        graphviz-2.26.3-1.el5
        graphviz-gd-2.26.3-1.el5
