.. index:: single: Workflow; Dumping Workflows
To help you debug your workflows, you can dump a representation of your workflow with
the use of a DumperInterface
. Use the GraphvizDumper
to create a
PNG image of the workflow defined above:
// dump-graph.php $dumper = new GraphvizDumper(); echo $dumper->dump($definition);
$ php dump-graph.php > out.dot
$ dot -Tpng out.dot -o graph.png
The result will look like this:
If you have configured your workflow with the Symfony framework, you may dump the dot file
with the WorkflowDumpCommand
:
$ php bin/console workflow:dump name > out.dot
$ dot -Tpng out.dot -o graph.png
Note
The dot
command is part of Graphviz. You can download it and read
more about it on Graphviz.org.
