pw-dot

Create .dot files of the PipeWire graph. See also: dot, for rendering graph. More information: https://docs.pipewire.org/page_man_pw-dot_1.html.

  • Generate a graph to pw.dot file:

pw-dot

  • Read objects from pw-dump JSON file:

pw-dot -j|--json path/to/file.json

  • Specify an output file, showing all object types:

pw-dot --output path/to/file.dot -a|--all

  • Print .dot graph to stdout, showing all object properties:

pw-dot --output - -d|--detail

  • Generate a graph from a remote instance, showing only linked objects:

pw-dot --remote remote_name -s|--smart

  • Lay the graph from left to right, instead of dot’s default top to bottom:

pw-dot -L|--lr

  • Lay the graph using 90-degree angles in edges:

pw-dot -9|--90
