UML diagrams for Zim

This Zim plugin allows you to insert a UML diagram in a page.

It relies on PlantUML which, like GraphViz, lets you write diagrams using a script language.

Installation

• Install PlantUML using your usual package manager.

Tip	Use Homebrew with macOS or Scoop with Windows. These tools are quick to set up and don’t require administrator rights.

• Open the plugins folder. In Zim, go to Edit > Preferences > Plugins tab and click on the Open plugins folder button.

• Download the umldiagrameditor.py file and move it to that folder.

• Restart Zim.

• In Edit > Preferences > Plugins tab, you can now tick ☐ Insert UML diagram.

• If you want to spice up your plantuml style with some style sheets, you can configure the base dir for looking for those files

• See here for an example

Acknowledgements
