Text based tools

I used to use the GUI tool Dia. But it was very buggy and no longer updated. I then went on to look for alternatives.

I am frustrated with the UI diagram apps:

• layout of components takes time
• it is difficult to modify the diagrams in UI (especially for batch operations, e.g. rename, grouping)
• application lock-in because of the binary file format
• binary file is not trackable by VCS
• hard to integrate to other system

So I focused on tools that provides a DSL for drawing UML from plain text.
Candidates are (ranked according to the criteria below):

I ended up choosing PlantUML because:

• the syntax is more familiar and flexible
• active development
• generates beautiful diagrams
• style-able
• supports more diagram types
• easy to setup
• bindings to more projects indicates widespread usage

BTW, blockdiag would be the first runner up. It also features several unique diagram types.

PlantUML

General and common command to handle graphic layout in diagrams.
Language specification pages
Changing colors and fonts

The automatic layout of PlantUML (with GraphViz) is a curse and a blessing.
On one hand you are free of the hassle of arranging the elements, on the other hand you have little control over the position of how your elements.
Hackery like horizontalLineBetweenDifferentPackageAllowed and hidden links (-[hidden]-) are needed to tame the layout engine.

PlantUML also embed other tools besides UML:
DITAA, Salt, JCCKit, Sudoku, XEarth

GaaS (graph as a service)

With an HTTP client and scraping code, any DSL with web editor could be made as a service. This is especially easy if the DSL is provided as a library of course.

PlantUML's service mode, seejQuery and JavaScript async and sync integration.

GUI Tools

PlantUML's weakness (and strength, sort of) is the user cannot (and need not) specify location of the nodes. This became an issue for component diagrams where we need more control on node position and edge routing, which are crucial for component diagram for a better look and feel of the diagram.

yEd

After trying out several GUI tools, yEd comes to my liking.

• decent and non-buggy UI
• better community support
• can save as XML (graphml) format that can be edited manually or programmatically
• provides (limited) transform with Properties Mapper
