Visualization

6. Visualization

Visualizing your workflow helps you understand the execution flow and dependencies between nodes. GenSphere provides a visualization tool to render your workflow as an interactive graph.

6.1 Using the Visualizer

The Visualizer class in GenSphere allows you to visualize your workflow.

Example:

from gensphere.visualizer import Visualizer

viz = Visualizer(
    yaml_file='combined.yaml',
    functions_file='functions.py',
    schema_file='schemas.py',
    address='127.0.0.1',
    port=8050
)
viz.start_visualization()

6.2 Features of the Visualizer

• Interactive Graph: Nodes are displayed as a graph where you can zoom in/out.
• Node Details: Click on a node to see details such as inputs, outputs, functions, and schemas.
• Execution Flow: Visualize the dependencies and execution order.

6.3 Running the Visualizer

When you run viz.start_visualization(), the visualizer starts a local web server. Open your browser and navigate to http://127.0.0.1:8050 (or the specified address and port) to view the visualization.

Note: If you're running in an environment like Google Colab, you might need to set up port forwarding or use a different method to access the visualization.
