# 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`

- Specify an output file, showing all object types:

`pw-dot --output {{path/to/file.dot}} --all`

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

`pw-dot --output - --detail`

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

`pw-dot --remote {{remote_name}} --smart`

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

`pw-dot --lr`

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

`pw-dot --90`
