Topic: UML Diagrams in IG

Hi, does anyone know how one can enable UML generation for profiles when creating an implementation guide? (similar to UML diagrams in the official FHIR spec) I see that the IG code has utilities for building it but couldn't figure out how to properly configure it.

What context are we in? Simplifier.net?

Graphviz http://www.graphviz.org/

@Ross Shnaper We've implemented a basic UML generator within the online IG editor in Simplifier.net, for example: https://simplifier.net/ui/ig/MichelTestIG/ (go to page UML)

Sorry, my bad! The context we're in is using the 'org.hl7.fhir.igpublisher.jar' :) I'll take a look at GraphViz thanks, I saw some implementation within the 'org.hl7.fhir.igpublisher.jar' that did SVG output but couldn't figure out how to properly enable it.

it's not hooked up yet because people haven't been asking for it. maybe you could create a gforge task to remind me to get to it

@John Moehrke we no longer use graphviz

I have an XSL transformation that creates a reasonably well (although not perfectly) laid out UML diagram SVG from a StructureDefinition if anyone's interested.
