gitbook-plugin-plantuml-cloud v1.0.2
GitBook PlantUml Plugin
- inspired by romanlytkin/gitbook-plantuml
The plugin now supports two APIs for generating PlantUML diagrams:
Installation
- Add the plugin to your book.json
{
"plugins": ["plantuml-cloud"]
}- Install the plugin to you gitbook
$ gitbook install
- No additional steps required
Configuration
- If you do not add a plugin configuration to your book.json, then the following defaults will be used:
| Configuration option | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
| umlPath | Path to a directory where the generated images for the diagrams will be cached. | "assets/images/uml" |
| type | Determines the type of the server side API | "plantuml-service" |
| host | Host for the diagramming service | "plantuml-service.herokuapp.com" |
| port | Port number for the diagramming service | 80 |
| protocol | https or http | "https" |
| path | URL Fragment which will be appended to the host part | "/svg" |
| blockRegex | Regular expression to select the diagramming text blocks. | ^uml((.*\n)+?)?$ |
- If want to use the PlantUML Server API the following changes need to be made to the plugin configuration in your book.json:
{
"plugins": ["plantuml-cloud"],
"pluginsConfig": {
"plantuml-cloud": {
"protocol": "http",
"type": "plantuml-server",
"host": "www.plantuml.com",
"path": "/plantuml/svg/"
}
}
}The PlantUML Server API on plantuml.com expects the diagram text blocks in a special encoding. Look here for more information. To make this encoding work in this plugin it was necessary to include some code for the deflate operations. Look here for more information.
- Make the plugin work with nodejs zlib deflate implementation and remove the duplicated deflate code.
