PowerShell + (GLEE – Graph Layout Execution Engine)

GLEE is a .NET tool for graph layout and viewing from Microsoft Research.

I worked up a PowerShell script that hosts the GLEE viewer in a form and creates a graph from an array of objects that that have a StartNode and EndNode.

$target = 1..15 |
   ForEach {
      New-Object PSObject |
         Add-Member -PassThru NoteProperty 
            StartNode "S$($rnd.Next(1,5))" |
         Add-Member -PassThru NoteProperty 
           EndNode "E$($rnd.Next(1,5))"
    }

$target |
   ForEach {
      [void] $g.AddEdge($_.StartNode, $_.EndNode)
   }

Download the script here. You’ll need to download GLEE too.
