cloudpaint-cli

This is the command line interface (cli) for the cloudpaint library.

This project only exists because I wanted to learn the go programming language. And because I am also a big fan of big picture diagrams for software I created cloudpaint and cloudpaint-cli.

Get cloudpaint library

$ mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/nrekretep
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/nrekretep
$ git clone https://github.com/nrekretep/cloudpaint.git

Get cloudpaint cli

$ mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/nrekretep
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/nrekretep
$ git clone https://github.com/nrekretep/cloudpaint-cli.git

Build it

$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/nrekretep
$ go -o cldpnt cloudpaint-cli/main.go

Use it

As the name implies this is a command line interface so you need to use the correct command line parameters.

$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/nrekretep
$ ./cldpnt -a=https://api.run.pivotal.io -u=<youruser> -p=<yourpassword> -d=single-app -appguid=<yourappguid>

The diagram in PlantUML Syntax will be printed to the console.

To render the diagram you need to send the output to a PlantUML rendering service like PlanUML Online.

Supported diagram types

single-app - Shows all dependencies for a single app.
