I'm having an issue with the styling of my edges in a DOT not being represented when visualizing the graph with pyvis.
I am just reading the DOT with the from_DOT method but the edges with styling [style="dotted"] or [style="dashed"] have the same appearance as the other (solid) edges.
Of course I tried adding each edge to the graph with add_edge and then do the styling with something like dashes=1 for dashed edges and dashes=[1, 6] for dotted edges but that's not really the most elegant solution considering the from_DOT method already exists and the edge styling works just fine with my DOT files when I play around with vis network.
DOT file:
digraph {
a [label=12, entity_id=12, entity_class="truck"];
b [label=7, entity_id=7,entity_class="bike"];
c [label=3, entity_id=3, entity_class="car"];
a -> b[label="solid edge"];
a -> b [label="dashed edge", style=dashed];
a -> c [label="dashed edge", style=dashed];
a -> c [label="dotted edge", style=dotted];
}
This is what I get with pyvis:

Here is the relevant generated js code:
Details
// initialize global variables.
var edges;
var nodes;
var network;
var container;
var options, data;
// This method is responsible for drawing the graph, returns the drawn network
function drawGraph() {
var container = document.getElementById('mynetwork');
var DOTstring = "digraph simple_graph { a [label=12, entity_id=12, entity_class=\"truck\"]; b [label=7, entity_id=7,entity_class=\"bike\"]; c [label=3, entity_id=3, entity_class=\"car\"]; a -> b[label=\"solid edge\"]; a -> b [label=\"dashed edge\", style=dashed]; a -> c [label=\"dashed edge\", style=dashed]; a -> c [label=\"dotted edge\", style=dotted]; }";
var parsedData = vis.network.convertDot(DOTstring);
data = {
nodes: parsedData.nodes,
edges: parsedData.edges
}
var options = parsedData.options;
options.nodes = {
shape: "dot"
}
network = new vis.Network(container, data, options);
return network;
}
drawGraph();
And this is what vis network draws:
