Developer’s guide

In this section you will find any kind of information, that you might want to be equipped with as a developer. If you don’t feel like a developer, you might as well get a look under the hood.

Rendering UML Diagrams to include into documentation

To include UML diagrams within the documentation the diagrams have to be rendered to .svg files first. This can be easily done by utilising the plantuml task within the Makefile. This task is triggered by executing make plantuml in a terminal in the docs/sphinx directory of the project or make -C docs/sphinx plantuml from the root directory of the project.

Important

This task will only convert files within the docs/puml directory and its subdirectories. All converted files will be located in docs/images/uml.
