Convert sqlite3 databases to directed graph .dot files

README for sqlite3todot

If ever there were some itch-scratching going on, this would be it. This is a simple tool to create .dot directed graphs from sqlite3 databases.

It can optionally include things like clustering, and tables to ignore, from a "meta" database.

To build: gcc -o sqlite3todot -lsqlite3 sqlite3todot.c

As an example to run, rendering the example meta database, with the meta database as the meta database for that example meta [I can't go on]: cat meta.sql | sqlite3 meta.db ./sqlite3todot meta.db meta.db > verymeta.dot dot -Tpng -overymeta.png verymeta.dot

Alternatively, there's a script called "testlayouts.sh" that renders all of the layouts graphviz has at time of writing. Simply pass it the dot file you created before, and open the file it suggests: sh ./testlayouts.sh ./verymeta.dot
