mdBook PlantUML

mdBook preprocessor to render PlantUML code blocks to embedded SVG in your book.

Usage

First create the preprocessor in your book.toml file:

[book]
authors = ["Dzjengis Khan"]
multilingual = false
src = "src"
title = "mdBook PlantUML preprocessor"

[preprocessor.plantuml]
plantuml-cmd="plantuml.exe"

The above assumes both the mdbook-preprocessor and the plantuml executable are on your path.

Then simply add a PlantUML code block in your book text:

Some text here

```plantuml
@startuml
A --|> B
@enduml
```

Some more text.

The plantuml code block will be replaced with inline SVG data.

Options

• plantuml-cmd: Optional command override for PlantUML (defaults to "java -jar plantuml.jar" on Windows and "/usr/bin/plantuml" on Linux).
