Re: Thought of the day: graphing web applications

[Pedram Amini <pedram () redhive com>]

While I don't have a bundled solution for you. I do recommend that you 
take a look at the following two components from PaiMei 
(http://www.openrce.org/downloads/details/208/PaiMei):

     pgraph
     utils/udraw_connector

Install uDraw, launch it in server mode (-server switch), as you spider 
your target start creating nodes and edges, you can modify the default 
color attributes as you create the nodes:

     import pgraph
     import utils

     # connect to localhost on default port
     udraw = utils.udraw_connector()
     graph = pgraph.graph()

     # node id's must be numeric
     page1 = pgraph.node(id)
     page2 = pgraph.node(id)

     page1.label = "/some/path/login.jsp"
     page2.label = "/some/path/process_login.jsp"

     # page1 has interesting forms:
     page1.color = 0xFF0000

     edge = pgraph.edge.edge(page1.id, page2.id)
     edge.label = "inherits variables username, password"

     # add the nodes and edges to the graph.
     graph.add_node(page1)
     graph.add_node(page2)
     graph.add_edge(edge)

     # update the graph as we spider.
     udraw.graph_new(graph)

     # center the graph on the last created node.
     udraw.focus_node(page1.id)

Creation of static graphs are free. At any point, you can save your 
uDraw output to disk:

     fh = open("graph.udg", "w+")
     fh.write(graph.render_graph_udraw())
     fh.close()

or render the graph as GML:

     fh = open("graph.gml", "w+")
     fh.write(graph.render_graph_gml())
     fh.close()

or generate an image through GraphViz / PyDOT:

     png = function.render_graph_graphviz()

     # twopi might be a better 'prog' value here
     png.write_png("graph.png", prog="dot")

It's all Python so it should tie into CANVAS seamlessly.
