NAME
pyreverse - parse python sources files and extract diagrams
from them.
SYNOPSIS
pyreverse [options] <modules>
DESCRIPTION
pyreverse is a python source analyzer. It parses a python
packages and produces UML diagrams in different output for-
mats. (dot, all formats available for dot, and vcg). With
different options, you can have fine tuning on what and how
modules, classes and attributes will be shown in the dia-
gram. You can combine several modules in one project
(except with -c ).
If no -c and no --diadefs option specified, pyreverse will
create
- a diagram 'classes_<name>' for the classes in <modules>
and
( if there is more than one module in <projects> )
- a diagram 'packages_<name>' for the package dependencies
in <modules>
With -c <class>, pyreverse creates a diagram for that
<class> with filename <class>.<format>. You can do -c
<class1> , -c <class2>.
OPTIONS
-h, --help
show help message and exit
-p<name>, --project=<name>
set project name to <name> if not using -c option.
(default:'No Name')
-i<file>, --ignore=<file>
add <file> (may be a directory) to the black list (not
parsed)
-f<mode>, --filter-mode=<mode>
filter attributes and functions according to <mode>.
You can combine modes using '+' like 'SPECIAL+OTHER'.
Correct modes are :
- 'PUB_ONLY' : filter all non public attributes
(default)
- 'ALL' : no filter
- 'SPECIAL' : filter Python special functions except
constructor

- 'OTHER' : filter protected and private attributes
[currentt: PUB_ONLY]
-d<file>, --diadefs=<file>
create diagram according to the diagrams definitions in
<file>
-c <class>, --class=<class>
create a class diagram with all classes related to
<class> [current: none] the class must be in the file
<modules>. By default, this will include all ancestors
and associated classes of <class> and include module
names (i.e. '-ASmy' ).
-a <ancestor>, --show-ancestors=<ancestor>
show <ancestor> generations of ancestor classes not in
<projects>
-A, --all-ancestors=[yn]
show all ancestors off all classes in <projects> [cur-
rent: none]
-s <ass_level>, --show-associated=<associated>
show <ass_level> associated classes. <ass_level>=1 will
only take classes directly related to the classes in
the project, while <ass_level>=2 will also take all
classes related to those fetched by<depth>=1.
-S, --all-associated=[yn]
show recursively all associated off all associated
classes [current: none]
-b, --builtin
include builtin objects in representation of classes
[current: False]
-m [yn], --module-names=[yn]
include module name in representation of classes. This
will include full module path in the class name. [cur-
rent: none]
-k, --only-classnames
don't show attributes and methods in the class boxes;
this disables -f values [current: False]
-o <format>, --output=<format>
create a *.<format> output file if format available.

Available formats are all formats that dot can produce
and vcg. [default: dot]
EXAMPLES
Here are some examples for command line options :
pyreverse <project> -a1 -s1 -m
-a1 -s1 will include one level of ancestor and associ-
ated classes in the diagram of the <project> modules,
while -m will show the full module path of each class.
You can use the same way the -a, -s, -A, -S options.
Note that on class diagrams (using -c ) -a and -s will
rather reduce than enlarge your diagram.
pyreverse mod/foo.py mod/fee.py -k
This is interesting if the diagram for <project>=mod is
too complicated: you can show only the class names (no
attributes or methods, option -k); or take only the
modules you are interested in (here fee.py and foo.py).
