I know this theme has been discussed many times on different other
forums, but I am still trying to understand how it could be possible
to generate graph representations (similar to the ones produced by
Graphviz) on Google App Engine.

I'm using GAE with Python 2.7 and everything looks great.
I would like to add graphical representations of network graphs on my
application and I tried different approaches.
Every one of them finished in a failure:
- I tried PyGraphviz, but unfortunately it cannot be installed on GAE
because it requires compiled libraries (for graphviz) wich cannot be
installed on GAE platform
- I tried Google Graphs with the experimental graphviz option but, as
it seems, my graphs (less than 1000 nodes) are too big to be generated
by Google Graphs
- I tried Canviz which is not exactly what I wanted to do (since
Canvis is javascript client-side and I preferred a server-side
solution). Unfortunately, however, Canvis just does the drawing. It
still needs to call graphvis binaries for doing the layout and so it
makes impossible to have beautiful graph drawings generated on GAE.

No solution seems to solve the problem.
Did somebody managed to solve this issue somehow?
Would you suggest any possible solution to the problem of drawing a
network graph with a python application hosted on GAE?
