Tip
titleConfluence 3.0 compatibility

graph-from-table macro users need to upgrade to 1.2.0

Dependencies

  • Graphviz must be installed and configured on your Confluence server

Graphviz on Windows

  1. Download and run the Windows installer
    • Defaults to install in C:\Program Files\Graphviz2.16 or similar
    • Automatically adds this to your Windows path
    • Confirm that you can run dot.exe from a newly opened command line
  2. Restart Confluence
  3. Verify it works by creating a page with a simple flowchart macro like:

    No Format
    {flowchart} 
    A -> B
    {flowchart}
    
    Info
    titleIf you get errors about not finding dot.exe
    1. Download the plugin jar file
    2. Unzip the jar to a temporary directory
    3. Edit the graphviz.propertiesfile
      • Replace dot.candidate.paths setting with something like (yes, use forward slashes (smile)):

        No Format
        dot.candidate.paths=c:/PROGRA~1/Graphviz2.16/bin/dot.exe
        
    4. Zip all files in the temporary directory to create a new jar file
    5. Uninstall the graphviz plugin and re-install your customized version
    6. GVIZ-1 will make this easier

Graphviz on Mac OSX

  1. Download and run the installer.

Graphviz on Linux and Unix

  1. Install the graphviz.rpm, the graphviz-graphs.rpm, and the graphviz-gd.rpm packages
  2. Open the directory GraphViz is installed under and confirm the path
  3. Login as the user who runs Confluence or starts the Confluence service
  4. Append the path to the bin directory of GraphViz to the 'Path' variable

Info
titlePrevious history

This is a package of the Graphviz macros developed by Atlassian that have been available for a long time. Previous to the availability of this package, the plugin had to be built from the distribution. The package also includes the Graph-from-table Macro that was previously packaged in the obsolete Scripting and External Content Macros.
