Hi

I just saw that a bug in plantuml is fixed - namely that -tsvg is
compatible with the -pipe optin. Therefore it should be possible top
produce svg vector graphs from plantuml.

In a second step, these could be converted to png, pdf or ps with the
packagelibrsvg2-bin (I am using ubuntu), therefore producing high
quality graphs.

As I don't know how to implement it, would it be possible to implement

- - that, depending on the :file name specified, either a .png or a .svg
is produced by plantuml

The conversion to ps or pdf could then be done in a second bash script.

Thanks,

and I really like the plantuml integration for quickly documenting with
flowcharts while programming - brilliant.

Rainer

Hi Rainer,

If you could send me an example of how to generate an svg image using
plantuml on the command line, I'll add that functionality to
ob-plantuml.el.

Thanks -- Eric

from org:

#+begin_src :file test.svg :commandline -tsvg
 ...
#+end_src

command line:

java -jar plantuml.jar -tsvg -p < sequence.plantuml > sequence.svg

with direct conversion to pdf when using rsvg-convert:

java -jar plantuml.jar -tsvg -p < sequence.plantuml | rsvg-convert -f
pdf > sequence.pdf

Options for rsvg-convert:
 -f , --format=[png, pdf, ps, svg]     save format [optional; defaults
to 'png']

the others are not that relevant.


Thanks,

Rainer

Hi Rainer,

Sorry about the delayed reply.

Whenever the extension of the :file header argument is "svg" the
appropriate "-tsvg" flag will now automatically be added to the command
line.

This looks nice, but it requires a second utility rsvg-convert.  I think
this functionality would be better implemented using the long-awaited-
but-not-yet-developed post-processing code blocks.

Best -- Eric
