Tool for creating uml diagrams
Hi all,
I was wondering if somebody knows about some tool to create uml diagrams
from avro files.
Thanks in advance!
David

I stumbled a while ago across: https://github.com/malisas/schema-uml <https://github.com/malisas/schema-uml>
there might be more tools out there...

Hi Mark,
Thanks for your response.
Staruml is a great tool for creating uml diagrams, but want I want is to be
able to automatically update my data model diagram once my avro files
(which are the "source of the truth") changes.
Thanks again!

Don't have one specifically for avro files, but StarUML is the best tool
I've found for just creating the diagrams from a UI.

Thanks Rob for your proposal, I will take a look to plantmul.
And John your idea is so clean and easy.. as a matter of fact I'm already
creating the java classes from the avro (I use them to as message transport
pojos), so I only have to reuse that conversion in my CI together with some
java-to-uml solution and I will have always an updated UML of my domain!
Thanks a lot guys!

That's an cool idea, assuming the java is pretty vanilla looking. I've
just used it in python, using avro's validate to check the objects I create
:-)

I'd consider generating Java from the avro and then using one of the many
tools that will generate UML from Java.

You could try using plantuml. You'd have to write some code to generate
the files it takes (it's like graphviz - a simple text format) and then run
plantuml to generate image files.
