network diagram in document
Sometimes you would like to draw network diagram and incorporate it into your document.
It’s so easy with sphinx and nwdiag. For example, prepare such a text as follows and save it as, say, net.diag.
nwdiag {
internet [shape = cloud];
internet -- router;
network eva{
address = "192.168.10.0/24";
router;
Nerv [address = "192.168.10.10"];
Seele [address = "192.168.10.11"];
Gehirn [address = "192.168.10.12"];
}
network theLupin{
address = "192.168.20.0/24";
router;
lupin [address = "192.168.20.10"];
fujiko [address = "192.168.20.11"];
jigen [address = "192.168.20.12"];
}
}
And merge this file into your sphinx document with as follows.
.. nwdiag:: net.diag
Then you will see beautiful network diagram as follows.
