Grouper visualization is available in a Grouper 2.4 patch and above. 


Info

For a broad overview and background, check out the blog on Grouper visualization from April 2019


Visualization in the Grouper UI uses the
Visualization API to internally construct an acyclic directed graph of edges and nodes based around the current page's stem, group, or subject. There are options to show the relationships as either a text-only version, or a graphical SVG version based on the GraphViz library. In the graphical version, arrows point from left to right, from "parent" objects to "child" objects. Parents include folders containing objects, loader jobs that populate groups, members of a group, and left and right components of a composite group. Children objects include memberships, composite groups, and subobjects of a folder.

 

Invoking visualization

The More Actions→Visualization option will show up for folders, groups and subjects. For non-wheel users, it will only display objects you have read access to.
