Charts and ASP.Net MVC

I have a graph that I would like to present using an image on a website. The problem is generating this image dynamically based on the current state of the graph.

I am using ASP.Net MVC 3 with C #.

I thought about creating an image on my hard drive using some kind of tool (Graphviz, etc.), and then transferred the file path.

Security is not a real problem, because at the moment it is only internal work based on projects. More importantly, it is easy to implement.

I tried quickgraph, and in the end I had this creation of DOT files (maybe it ignores my attempts to make PNG), but the code does not work, because the program does not have access to where the files are created. I believe this is easy to fix.

Do you have any suggestions as to how I could do this (if I have to do something completely different or how can I get the DOT files presented as PNGs)?

Regards, Daniel

I just wanted to notice that I solved it using the Google Image Chart, they have experimental support for Graphviz: http://code.google.com/apis/chart/image/docs/gallery/graphviz.html

Just create a url and paste the external image into your page.

If the graph library allows you to write the result to a memory stream and put it in the cache (System.Web.HttpRuntime.Cache) using the key.

img ( ""?) ( "" ), "/Image/View/392838".

( MIME, ..).
