UML and Graphs in Redmine Wiki
Preparation:
yum install java-1.7.0-openjdk graphviz
Downloaded wiki_external_filter:
wget "https://github.com/luckval/wiki_external_filter/archive/master.zip" \ -O /tmp/redmine_wiki_external_filter-commitdce52f32c5-2014-04-12.zip
Downloaded PlanUML jar file into /usr/local/bin.
Installation Redmine Wiki External Filter plugin
Unpack into redmine plugins directory and copy config file info main:
cd /var/www/redmine/plugins unzip /tmp/redmine_wiki_external_filter-commitdce52f32c5-2014-04-12.zip mv wiki_external_filter-master wiki_external_filter cd .. cp plugins/wiki_external_filter/config/wiki_external_filter.yml config/
renaming directory in necessary.
Standard plug in installation procedure (and restart httpd in the end):
cd /var/www/redmine bundle install /etc/init.d/httpd graceful
I have to run bundle install to install missing open4 gem.
Then you have to configure cache settings using Administration -> Plugins -> Wiki External Filter Plugin: Configure. I've set Cache expiration time to 2 second because my server is rather slow.
Testing graphs
I've added two lines (prolog and epilog) in config/wiki_external_filter.yml
graphviz:
description: "Constructs graph image from its textual description in DOT language, see http://www.graphviz.org"
template: image
outputs:
- command: "/usr/bin/dot -Tsvg"
content_type: "image/svg+xml"
# - command: "/usr/bin/dot -Tpng"
# content_type: "image/png"
prolog: "digraph G {"
epilog: "}"
and then put:
{{graphviz
A->B
}}
in Redmine wiki page and it was pretty rendered.
Testing UML diagrams
I've created /usr/local/bin/plantuml.bash file:
#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/java -Djava.awt.headless=true -Djava.io.tmpdir=/var/tmp -jar /opt/PlantUML/plantuml.jar -charset UTF-8 ${@}
set to executable
chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/plantuml.bash
and then correct path in wiki_external_filter.yml file
plantuml:
description: "Constructs UML diagram image from its textual description in PlantUML language, see http://plantuml.sourceforge.net"
template: image
outputs:
- command: "/usr/local/bin/plantuml.bash -pipe"
content_type: "image/png"
prolog: "@startuml"
epilog: "@enduml"
and then put:
{{plantuml
A->B
}}
in Redmine wiki page and UML diagram should be shown.
"Should" - in my case - VPS with a little amount of RAM - I can see only
Error occurred during initialization of VM Could not reserve enough space for object heap Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine. Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.
but it's well known lack of memory problem and even -Xmx64m doesn't help.
For some simple diagrams adding -Xmx8m in /usr/local/bin/plantuml.bash fix that problem.
