A small Lua utility that converts Unix lsof output into a Graphviz graph showing FIFO and UNIX interprocess communication between processes. It is used as a pipe in a shell pipeline feeding into dot to render an image.

Use cases

  • visualize unix socket connections between processes
  • generate a graph of lsof output
  • debug interprocess communication on a linux host
  • find which processes are connected via fifos and unix sockets
  • pipe lsof into graphviz to render a process connection diagram

When to choose

  • you need a quick visual map of unix socket and FIFO connections on a Unix system
  • you already use lsof and graphviz and want a tiny pipe-and-play tool

When to avoid

  • you need a maintained tool with active development or support
  • you dislike Lua and prefer the Python or Perl ports
  • you need TCP/network connection visualization rather than UNIX IPC
