Obtain UML class diagrams from Scala 2 or Scala 3 source code in a compiler-independent way.
This project can generate UML class diagrams from Scala programs without being dependent on the scala compiler. That means you can obtain class diagrams of work in progress files and also standalone files that would not compile on their own. However, it is also possible to generate class diagrams to multiple directories of a public github repository. The project takes into account not only the relationships of the classes but also the package definitions.
Scala-uml evolved from a master thesis in which stereotypes were inserted for all scala-specific features in the context of a UML profile.
- Input: Folder of Scala files or a config file targeting a public github repository
- Output: UML class diagram of the files as an svg-image or in the format of class diagrams of PlantUML
At the moment there is no release. However, this project is planned to be a console application and it can allready respond to a few console commands.
Until there is an actual console application, in order to use it you need to get the repository and start the application with sbt "run <commands>"
.
Commands available:
Command | Functionality |
---|---|
-f,--files <path> | Directory of input Scala files |
-o,--output <path> | Directory of output class diagram |
-n,--name <name> | name of the output file |
-t,--textual | states that the output format should be in the .puml format of PlantUML class diagrams |
-e,--exclude r <regex> | Excludes classes or packages from the diagram that match a given regular expression . The regular expression is matched on the package + name. If you want to delete anything in a package named "org::com::foo" you can use (org::com::foo.*). More options are planned here :) |
-g,--github <path to config> | Processes directories of a github repository stated in a config file. More infos on config files here |
name = "kivy-astmanip"
owner = "theorydudes"
directories = {
type="directories",
dir-entries=[
{type = "entry", path = "src/main/scala/com/github/theorydudes/model"}
]
}
At the moment only public repositories can be used. The config must include the name
of the repository and the owner
and also a list of directories you want to consider in the visualization. In this case, there is only one directory model
. You can just add entries in the list of dir-entries
.
