Run the conversion app on your graphviz file. For example, the command below will create converted files example1.xml and example2.xml.
graphviz2drawio example1.dot example2.dot
Alternatively, you can specify the output file (but only if there is a single input file)
graphviz2drawio example.dot -o /path/to/somewhere/new_name.xml
Output can also be sent to stdout by using the --stdout flag.
Graphs can be piped in from stdin and sent to stdout (default) or to a file with -o ....
from graphviz2drawio import graphviz2drawio
graph_to_convert = ...
xml = graphviz2drawio.convert(graph_to_convert)
print(xml)
where graph_to_convert can be any of a file path, file handle, string of dot language, or PyGraphviz.AGraph object
