Python Object Graphs ==================== ``objgraph`` is a module that lets you visually explore Python object graphs. You'll need `graphviz <http://www.graphviz.org/>`_ if you want to draw the pretty graphs. I recommend `xdot <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/xdot>`_ for interactive use. ``pip install xdot`` should suffice; objgraph will automatically look for it in your ``PATH``. Installation and Documentation ------------------------------ ``pip install objgraph`` or `download it from PyPI <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/objgraph>`_. Documentation lives at http://mg.pov.lt/objgraph. .. _history: History ------- I've developed a set of functions that eventually became objgraph when I was hunting for memory leaks in a Python program. The whole story -- with illustrated examples -- is in this series of blog posts: * `Hunting memory leaks in Python <http://mg.pov.lt/blog/hunting-python-memleaks.html>`_ * `Python object graphs <http://mg.pov.lt/blog/python-object-graphs.html>`_ * `Object graphs with graphviz <http://mg.pov.lt/blog/object-graphs-with-graphviz.html>`_ .. _devel: Support and Development ----------------------- The source code can be found in this Bazaar repository: https://code.launchpad.net/~mgedmin/objgraph/trunk. To check it out, use ``bzr branch lp:objgraph``. Report bugs at https://bugs.launchpad.net/objgraph.
