Re: [openstack-dev] Heat dependency visualisation
Nice. What would be even nicer is a change to python-heatclient so that heat resource-list has an option to output in dotfile format. +1. It would also be interesting to check if the dependency analysis is capable of exploding a resource-group. Say I have a ResourceGroup where each resource in the group is a Nova server that referencing the same Neutron security group. A naive analysis will show that the ResourceGroup is referencing the security group, but the fact is that each Nova server is depending on the SecurityGroup individually. Similarly, it would be interesting to see how this tool is handling nested stacks.

Re: [openstack-dev] Heat dependency visualisation
Nice work. We discussed similar work weeks ago. And the idea is to generate the dot file from a heat template, and then draw figures from the dot file. Even in the reversed direction, we can generate a heat template from a dot based file. Seems the community are eager to seem some heat template visualization tool.

FWIW the naive analysis is actually how it works internally (dependencies don't cross nested stack boundaries), at least for now. - ZB Similarly, it would be interesting to see how this tool is handling nested stacks.
