Use puml to generate sources diagrams #482

Big +1 from my side for having a text source for these kind of diagrams, rather than a binary one. |

Typo, or is it really named "scm-ppublish" (double 'p')?

My PlantUML knowledge is a bit rusty... Is there a difference between -[hidden]-> (as above) and -[hidden]> (here)?

I also learn by testing ...https://plantuml.com/component-diagram
By default, links between classes have two dashes -- and are vertically oriented. It is possible to use horizontal link by putting a single dash (or dot) like this:

From the same page:
It is also possible to change arrow direction by adding
left,right,upordownkeywords inside the arrow:
How would you feel about using that notation? I feel it might be friendlier to those who aren't so familiar with PlantUML and wish to make changes to this diagram.

FTR, source OpenOffice document has been committed with output png in 9a8edf7 but using PlantUML looks like a very good idea: trying on this schema as a first case is great. I'd love to be able to replace this OpenOffice approach to all the schemas I did, because it is a way to edit, but. not really easy ideally also, generating an image map with links to target urls would be great |

I talked to @slawekjaranowski and offered him to support him on the PlanUML issue (even having no experience in creating diagrams, but well sometimes is always the first time). In my fork I started and I think I got the sources diagram okay and also the diagram for the multi subproject guide. But I really struggle to create images like the Maven central picture, as plantUML doesn't offers (by design!) possibilities to "manually" draw lines :( So I'm not sure if it's worth trying to convert non-UML diagramms at all costs. You can see my progress here: https://github.com/Bukama/MavenStuff/blob/main/Maven4/puml/pumlworking.md What do you think @hboutemy @slawekjaranowski ? |

We have diagram of Maven sources repositories: https://maven.apache.org/scm.html
https://maven.apache.org/maven-sources.png
I don't see a way to easy edit this png file .... so I try to use a puml for generate it.
The result can look like:
Links in puml also working 😄
If you like it I will continue work.
