Introduction

A Python library and CLI tool that generates plantUML code from the given input YANG Model file. It grabs the dependencies yang models from the Makefile and from NCS.

To generate a png image or a svg file, install plantUML plugin for VSCode or other editors. plantUML has the web editor available at plantuml.com

Commands

Usage: ncs-uml [options] [<filename>...]

Creates plantUML file for the YANG module in <filename>, and all its dependencies.
It can be converted into PNG/SVG images using www.plantuml.com or with editor plugins.

Options:
  -h, --help            Show this help message and exit
  -v, --version         Show version number and exit
  -V, --verbose
  --no-inline-groupings
  --dependent-yang-paths=DEPENDENT_YANG_PATHS
                        dependent yang module paths
  --no-inline-groupings-from=NO_INLINE_GROUPINGS_FROM
                        Skips given modules from inline groupings.  Example
                        --uml-no-inline-groupings-from=ietf-yang-push
  --add-legend          Adds legend about grouping yang file in the UML

How to use ncs-uml?

• Command Line
  Type ncs-uml <YangFile>. For more help type ncs-uml --help

user$ ncs-uml $NCS_DIR/examples.ncs/getting-started/developing-with-ncs/17-mpls-vpn-python/packages/l3vpn/src/yang/l3vpn.yang --no-inline-groupings-from=tailf-ncs --add-legend
 INFO |   main | uml file: l3vpn.uml
 INFO |   main | uml clean up done.
user$

It returns plantUML code, which can easily converted to image.

Pre-requisites

ncs-uml supports both trains of python 2.7+ and 3.1+, the OS should not matter.

• pyang is used to translate the data.

Installation and Downloads

The best way to get ncs-uml is with setuptools or pip. If you already have setuptools, you can install as usual:

python -m pip install ncs-uml

Otherwise download it from PyPi, extract it and run the setup.py script

python setup.py install

If you're Interested in the source, you can always pull from the github repo:

• From github git clone https://github.com/kirankotari/ncs-uml.git

FAQ

• Question: Can we create uml diagram for the yang sub-module?
  Answer: No, currently we are allowing modules only, we are going to add sub-modules to the module before generating uml diagram

• Question: Can I create uml diagram for 2 files at at time?
  Answer: No, currently we are allowing one file at a time.

Bug Tracker and Support

• Please report any suggestions, bug reports, or annoyances with pingping through the Github bug tracker.
