Kedro Viz and Static Embedding Hello I am working on some documentation for a project and would like to include the kedro viz node view as part of the wiki Is there a relatively straightforward way to get an HTML render of the kedro viz view I wouldn t need any of the interactivity only a general overview of the nodes to embed in a markdown page I saw this from < Tynan> but that goes a step further and deploys the static html on GH pages our wikis are rendered from markdown documents on azure devops wiki so as far as I know which admittedly isn t much we can t have js stuff in there

wondering if this is related to <https github com kedro org kedro viz issues 638>

svg would work too I actually had never noticed the export visualization button so for now I guess I can just do that manually

Tynan · Answer

in the past we ve usually suggest using the export PNG SVG for this specific ask because at the moment we don t have any HTML export functionality

Tynan · Answer

let us know how the SVG works and if we can make it better in any way

Iñigo Hidalgo · Answer

Thanks slightly smiling face my original idea was to have it as part of CI so the wiki would always have the latest info but it s not a project we re changing that much atm so svg is a good stopgap

I saw in that issue that you were considering using selenium to render kedro viz and then press on the export button open mouth

Tynan · Answer

yes indeed that was one idea we had since that logic lives only in the frontend

I had the same idea of exporting the graph through the CI I d love to be able to render it in a README automatically to help documenting the pipelines It seems this is not possible only in the backend Maybe another thing to consider would be to export the dag as json and convert it in png with a dedicated library This would be quite ugly though

Nok Lam Chan · Answer

The pipeline node view can be made static which is something that we are working on In the future you may be able to just run it on CI and get it hosted as a static site on GH Page It may be better than a PNG in README in some cases

Nok Lam Chan · Answer

But if you need the kedro style of pipeline view there is no way to get around with JS It has to be rendered with JS first be it a headless selenium screenshot or you just clicking the export button manually

Iñigo Hidalgo · Answer

What s the difference between the kedro style of view vs the pipeline node view is the pipeline node view essentially this <https tynandebold com kedro viz layout >
