Can you send me your settings.xml and an example for an ivy.xml with that
you're able to generate graphs with multiple levels of dependencies?
After several tries I wasn't able to do it.
It seems that transitive dependencies don't work in my setup.

Thanks,
Felix

So far I only get one level of dependencies in the graph and not those 
dependencies
of dependent modules.
I assumed that this has to do with the 'transitive="true/false"'-setting in my 
ivy.xml
but that does seem to be the case.
I'll keep searching - if you can point me to an obvious mistake, please let me 
know.

I don't know much about pom.xml's, but I do know about ivy.xml's. If your 
ivy.xml points to a dependency that has an ivy.xml with another dependency, 
both should show up in the report and the generated png image. I didn't have to 
do anything special to make that happen.

Thanks Shawn. That looks good.

I have another (probably stupid) question.
In my graph I always just have 1 level of dependencies.
Dependencies of a dependent module are not shown.

What has to be done to show those too?
Is it perhaps that I have to generate pom.xmls for all modules
and store them in my repository?

First, I use ivy to produce the dependency report in various formats. Then, I 
use dot to convert the dot formatted output to a png image with the following 
ant target. I don't remember exactly where I got dot.exe from on the internet, 
but the dotExecutable is an ANT variable since it is different depending on 
which platform ant is running on.

<target name="report" depends="dependencies.check" description="Generate report on 
dependencies in several formats">
<delete dir="${env.BUILD_DIR}/report"/>
<mkdir dir="${env.BUILD_DIR}/report"/>
<ivy:report xml="true" graph="true" dot="true" todir="${env.BUILD_DIR}/report" 
conf="${env.DEPENDENCY_CONF}" outputpattern="[module](.[ext])"/>
<ac:if>
<isset property="dotExecutable"/>
<ac:then>
<exec executable="${dotExecutable}">
<arg line="-T png -o ${env.BUILD_DIR}/report/graph.png 
${env.BUILD_DIR}/report/${ivy.module}.dot"/>
</exec>
</ac:then>
</ac:if>
<reportSandboxes/>
<echo message="${line.separator}Report available 
at:${line.separator}${env.BUILD_DIR}/report"/>
</target>

Subject: making dependency-graphs

Hi,

in our company we're evaluating ivy (together with artifactory or nexus).
ATM I'm trying to find out easy ways of creating dependency graphs since that's
what many people like to see (including me).

However so far I found ways to create graphml-files which imho aren't very 
usable
since they require a whole lot of clicking in yet another tool (yed) which is
not an option for the average developer or manager.
Then there's graphviz which is a little bit easier, but still not usable for a 
manager.
Then I downloaded the dependency-analyzer which probably does nice things, but 
it needs
a maven-installation to work.

Is there no way to create a graph easily and fast?
My dream would be the possiblity to view dependency-graphs inside the 
artifactory (or nexus)
webgui.

Thanks for any hints and help.

Felix
