Extension:Diagrams

The Diagrams extension displays GraphViz, Mscgen, PlantUML, and Mermaid diagrams in a wiki. It can be configured to use a small web service to render the images.

It replaces the, , and extensions in some ways, but does not (yet) support all features of all of them. The primary reason for creating a new extension was to not store the rendered images as wiki files, but it has developed to aim to become a general diagramming extension.

Optional external rendering
This extension can also be configured to use an external rendering web service to generate the actual diagrams files. This is useful if you do not want the rendered files to be stored in the wiki, or if you have security requirements that make it more convenient to have the external rendering commands run somewhere other than on the web server.

Earlier versions of this extension required this service, but since 0.4.0 it's been optional.

There are two implementations of the service:


 * 1) A PHP (Symfony) based service – installation instructions
 * 2) A Python based service – installation instructions, demo

Once you have the servicing installed and running correctly, add the following to your LocalSettings.php:
