saidsef/plantuml-server repository overview

You must have Java installed on your machine, and optionally Graphviz software which are used for all diagrams but sequence diagrams and activity beta diagrams.

Make a file containing PlantUML commands, either with an editor or when running other software which calls PlantUML.

@startuml Alice -> Bob: test @enduml

Run (or have the software call) PlantUML with this file as input. The output is an image, which either appears in the other software, or is written to an image file on disk. For example,

⁠Deployment

docker run --pull -p 8080:8080 saidsef/plantuml-server:jetty

Then you can access the server on http://localhost:8080
