Does pygraphviz allow for you to render an image to a variable? I would like to serve up dynamic images via a webpage without having to render the graphs to disk.
According to the source code if you call the draw() method of an AGraph object while omitting the path argument (or setting it to None) it will return a bytes object instead of saving to a file. Do not forget to specify the format parameter.
For example, assuming that you already have an AGraph object named A, and you want to plot this graph, you could do this:
from IPython.display import Image, display
img_bytes = A.draw(format="png")
img = Image(img_bytes)
display(img)
