Application to detect cyclic imports. With this application you can analyze the dependence of your applications

• python-graph-core (1.8.1)
• python-graph-dot (1.8.1)
• pysmell (0.7.3)
• pyplete (0.0.2)
• django-form-admin (0.3.2) (optional)
• jquery.graphviz (fronzen into the app, only to svg-js format)

In your settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = (

    'django_detect_cyclic',

)

In your urls.py:

urlpatterns = patterns('',

    (r'^admin/detect_cyclic/', include('django_detect_cyclic.urls')),

)

Make sure that you have in your urls jsi18nurl:

js_info_dict = {
    'packages': ('your.app.package',),
}

urlpatterns = patterns('',

    url(r'^jsi18n/$', 'django.views.i18n.javascript_catalog', js_info_dict),

)

• The nodes are applications, or (if you use the option “Show modules”) modules in the applications
• One edge means that the source node imports from the destination node
• Every edge of a cycle has the same background color and the label contains “Cycle X”
• The labels of the edges contain the weight in parentheses
• If you use the “Show modules” option, each node will have a background color. If two nodes are from the same application, they will have the same background color.
• If an edge is dotted, every import in the source happens at runtime, whithin the body of a function or method

It is possible that you have to remove the pyc files:

find -iname "*.pyc" -exec rm "{}" \;

You have two ways, you can run a command:

python manage.py detect_cyclic
python manage.py detect_cyclic --include-apps="app1,app6,app7,app11" --file-name="my_graph.svg" --exclude-packages="migrations,templatetags" --verbosity=2
python manage.py detect_cyclic --include-apps="app1,app6" --show-modules --file-name="my_graph.svg" --exclude-packages="migrations" --verbosity=2
python manage.py detect_cyclic --include-apps="app1,app6" --only-cyclic --file-name="my_graph.svg" --exclude-packages="migrations" --verbosity=2

Or you can access via web to the wizard:

/admin/detect_cyclic/
