This repository contains a plugin to convert StarUML models to PlantUML diagrams. It's a simple and easy-to-use tool that extracts classes and associations from StarUML and generates PlantUML syntax to visualize them.
- Extracts UML Classes, attributes, operations, and associations
- Supports multiplicities on associations
- Includes element documentation as comments
- Supports AI tags to provide additional information to AI tools like ChatGPT
- Install the StarUML to PlantUML Converter plugin.
- Open your StarUML model.
- Select the elements you want to include in the PlantUML diagram.
- Press the hotkey (
Ctrl+Shift+Con Windows/Linux orCmd+Shift+Con macOS) or select the menu item "Convert to PlantUML" to generate the PlantUML syntax. - The PlantUML syntax will be copied to your clipboard.
- Paste the generated PlantUML syntax into a PlantUML editor or renderer, such as the PlantUML Online Server, or into the ChatGPT interface.
This plugin currently supports the following elements:
- UML Classes
- Class attributes
- Class operations
- Associations with multiplicities
It does not support:
- Other UML elements like interfaces, enumerations, or use cases
- Detailed formatting of the PlantUML diagram
- Advanced PlantUML features like notes, stereotypes, or colors
Please note that this plugin is a starting point and may require manual adjustments to the generated PlantUML syntax depending on your specific model and visualization preferences.
