Graphviz v0.14 Release Notes

  • 👌 Improve handling of escaped quotes (\"). Different from other layout engine escapes sequences such as \l and \N (which are passed on as is by 0️⃣ default), there is no use case for backslash-escaping a literal quote character because escaping of quotes is done by this library. Therefore, a backslash-escaped quote (e.g. in label='\\"') is now treated the same as a plain unescaped quote, i.e. both label='"' and label='\\"' produce the same DOT source [label="\""] (a label that renders as a literal quote). Before this change, use of '\\"' could break the quoting mechanism creating invalid or unintended DOT, possibly leading to syntax errors from the rendering 🖨 process.

    ➕ Add notebook section to documentation.

    ➕ Add sphinx.ext.viewcode to docs (note that this currently lacks links for methods, so that not all of the code is linked; use the source repo for reading on).

    👌 Improve test and doc building config.
