Let's have few examples.

Komponenten

Components
Komponenten werden mittels eckiger Klammern definiert.

Alternativ kann das Schlüsselwort component verwendet werden, um eine Komponente zu definieren. Mittels Schlüsselwort as lassen sich Aliase definieren. Aliase können verwendet werden, wenn Beziehungen definiert werden. 

@startuml

[First component]
[Another component] as Comp2
component Comp3
component [Last\ncomponent] as Comp4

@enduml

Components must be bracketed.

You can also use the component keyword to define a component. And you can define an alias, using the as keyword. This alias will be used later, when defining relations. 

@startuml

[First component]
[Another component] as Comp2
component Comp3
component [Last\ncomponent] as Comp4

@enduml

Schnittstellen

Interfaces

Schnittstellen werden mit zwei Runden Klammern () definiert.

Alternativ kann das Schlüsselwort interface verwendet werden, um Schnittstellen zu definieren. Mittels Schlüsselwort as lassen sich Aliase definieren. Aliase können verwendet werden, wenn Beziehungen definiert werden.

Die Deklaration von Schnittstellen ist optional. 

@startuml

() "First Interface"
() "Another interface" as Interf2
interface Interf3
interface "Last\ninterface" as Interf4

@enduml

Interface can be defined using the () symbol (because this looks like a circle).

You can also use the interface keyword to define an interface. And you can define an alias, using the as keyword. This alias will be used latter, when defining relations.

We will see latter that interface definition is optional. 

@startuml

() "First Interface"
() "Another interface" as Interf2
interface Interf3
interface "Last\ninterface" as Interf4

Grundlegendes Beispiel

Basic example

Verbindungen zwischen Elementen werden durch Kombinationen von gepunkteten Linien (..), geraden Linien (--) und Pfeilen (-->) hergestellt 

@startuml

DataAccess - [First Component]
[First Component] ..> HTTP : use

@enduml

Links between elements are made using combinations of dotted line (..), straight line (--), and arrows (-->) symbols. 

@startuml

DataAccess - [First Component]
[First Component] ..> HTTP : use

@enduml

Notizen

Using notes

Schlüsselwörter: note left of , note right of , note top of , note bottom of Diese Schlüsselwörter können eingesetzt werden, um Notizen für ein einzelnes Objekt zu erstellen.

Eine Notiz kann mit note definiert werden. Danach kann sie mittels .. mit anderen Objekten verbunden werden. 

@startuml

interface "Data Access" as DA

DA - [First Component]
[First Component] ..> HTTP : use

note left of HTTP : Web Service only

note right of [First Component]
  A note can also
  be on several lines
end note

@enduml

WARNING
 This translation need to be updated. 
WARNING

You can use the note left of , note right of , note top of , note bottom of keywords to define notes related to a single object. 

@startuml
[Component] as C

note top of C: A top note

note bottom of C
  A bottom note can also
  be on several lines
end note

note left of C
  A left note can also
  be on several lines
end note

note right of C: A right note
@enduml

A note can be also defined alone with the note keywords, then linked to other objects using the .. symbol or whatever arrow symbol (-, --, ...). 

@startuml
[Component] as C

note as N
  A floating note can also
  be on several lines
end note

C .. N
@enduml

Another note example: 

@startuml

interface "Data Access" as DA

DA - [First Component]
[First Component] ..> HTTP : use

note left of HTTP : Web Service only

note right of [First Component]
  A note can also
  be on several lines
end note

@enduml

Gruppierende Komponenten

Grouping Components

Mit package lassen sich Komponenten und Schnittstellen gruppieren.
  • package
  • node
  • folder
  • frame
  • cloud
  • database

@startuml

package "Some Group" {
  HTTP - [First Component]
  [Another Component]
}

node "Other Groups" {
  FTP - [Second Component]
  [First Component] --> FTP
}

cloud {
  [Example 1]
}


database "MySql" {
  folder "This is my folder" {
    [Folder 3]
  }
  frame "Foo" {
    [Frame 4]
  }
}


[Another Component] --> [Example 1]
[Example 1] --> [Folder 3]
[Folder 3] --> [Frame 4]

@enduml

You can use several keywords to group components and interfaces together:
  • package
  • node
  • folder
  • frame
  • cloud
  • database

@startuml

package "Some Group" {
  HTTP - [First Component]
  [Another Component]
}

node "Other Groups" {
  FTP - [Second Component]
  [First Component] --> FTP
}

cloud {
  [Example 1]
}


database "MySql" {
  folder "This is my folder" {
    [Folder 3]
  }
  frame "Foo" {
    [Frame 4]
  }
}


[Another Component] --> [Example 1]
[Example 1] --> [Folder 3]
[Folder 3] --> [Frame 4]

@enduml

Ändern der Pfeilrichtung

Changing arrows direction

Verbindungen werden mit zwei Minus-Zeichen -- definiert und sind vertikal orientiert. Um eine horizontale Orientierung zu erhalten, kann die Verbindung mit nur einem Minus-Zeichen (oder Punkt) definiert werden: 

@startuml
[Component] --> Interface1
[Component] -> Interface2
@enduml

Die Pfeilsymbole können umgedreht werden, um die Pfeilrichtung zu ändern: 

@startuml
Interface1 <-- [Component]
Interface2 <- [Component]
@enduml

Die Pfeilrichtung lässt sich auch mit den Schlüsselwörtern left, right, up und down ändern. Diese Schlüsselwörter werden innerhalb des Pfeil-Symbols eingesetzt: 

@startuml
[Component] -left-> left
[Component] -right-> right
[Component] -up-> up
[Component] -down-> down
@enduml

Die Pfeillänge kann verkürzt werden, wenn bei der Deklaration der Pfeilrichtung nur der Anfangsbuchstabe (oder ersten zwei Anfangsbuchstaben) verwendet werden: Beispielsweise -d- oder -do- statt -down-.

Diese Funktionalität ist jedoch mit Bedacht einzusetzen, da GraphViz normalerweise gute Resultate ohne manuelle Eingriffe erzielt.

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: 

@startuml
[Component] --> Interface1
[Component] -> Interface2
@enduml

You can also change directions by reversing the link: 

@startuml
Interface1 <-- [Component]
Interface2 <- [Component]
@enduml

It is also possible to change arrow direction by adding left, right, up or down keywords inside the arrow: 

@startuml
[Component] -left-> left
[Component] -right-> right
[Component] -up-> up
[Component] -down-> down
@enduml

You can shorten the arrow by using only the first character of the direction (for example, -d- instead of -down-) or the two first characters (-do-).

Please note that you should not abuse this functionality : Graphviz gives usually good results without tweaking.

And with the left to right direction parameter: 

@startuml
left to right direction
[Component] -left-> left
[Component] -right-> right
[Component] -up-> up
[Component] -down-> down
@enduml

Use UML2 notation

By default (from v1.2020.13-14), UML2 notation is used. 

@startuml

interface "Data Access" as DA

DA - [First Component]
[First Component] ..> HTTP : use

@enduml

UML1-Notation verwenden

Use UML1 notation

Der skinparam componentStyle uml1 Befehl wird werwendet, um in die UML1 Notation umzuschalten. 

@startuml
skinparam componentStyle uml1

interface "Data Access" as DA

DA - [First Component]
[First Component] ..> HTTP : use

@enduml

The skinparam componentStyle uml1 command is used to switch to UML1 notation. 

@startuml
skinparam componentStyle uml1

interface "Data Access" as DA

DA - [First Component]
[First Component] ..> HTTP : use

@enduml

Use rectangle notation (remove UML notation)

The skinparam componentStyle rectangle command is used to switch to rectangle notation (without any UML notation). 

@startuml
skinparam componentStyle rectangle

interface "Data Access" as DA

DA - [First Component]
[First Component] ..> HTTP : use

@enduml

Mehrzeilige Beschreibung

Long description
Es ist möglich mehrzeilige Beschreibungen zu erstellen mithilfe von eckigen Klammern 

@startuml
component comp1 [
This component
has a long comment
on several lines
]
@enduml

It is possible to put description on several lines using square brackets. 

@startuml
component comp1 [
This component
has a long comment
on several lines
]
@enduml

Individuelle Farben

Individual colors

Eine Farbe kann nach der Komponenten Definition angeben werden. 

@startuml
component  [Web Server] #Yellow
@enduml

You can specify a color after component definition. 

@startuml
component  [Web Server] #Yellow
@enduml

Verwendung von Sprites in Stereotypen

Using Sprite in Stereotype
Sie können Sprites innerhalb von stereotypen Komponenten verwenden. 

@startuml
sprite $businessProcess [16x16/16] {
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
FFFFFFFFFF0FFFFF
FFFFFFFFFF00FFFF

rectangle " End to End\nbusiness process" <<$businessProcess>> {
 rectangle "inner process 1" <<$businessProcess>> as src
 rectangle "inner process 2" <<$businessProcess>> as tgt
 src -> tgt
}

Der Skinparam Befehl

Skinparam

Mit dem skinparam Befehl kann die Farbe und die Schriftart der Zeichnung verändert werden.

Sie können den Befehl auf die folgenden Arten verwenden:
  • Wie alle ander Befehle In einer Diagrammdefinition,
  • in einer Include-Datei,
  • In einer Konfigurationsdatei, die durch die Kommandozeile oder den ANT-Task übergeben wird.

Es können unterschiedliche Farben und Schriftarten für Komponenten und Schnittstellen verwendet werden. 

@startuml

skinparam interface {
  backgroundColor RosyBrown
  borderColor orange
}

skinparam component {
  FontSize 13
  BackgroundColor<<Apache>> Red
  BorderColor<<Apache>> #FF6655
  FontName Courier
  BorderColor black
  BackgroundColor gold
  ArrowFontName Impact
  ArrowColor #FF6655
  ArrowFontColor #777777
}

Specific SkinParameter

componentStyle

  • By default (or with skinparam componentStyle uml2), you have an icon for component

@startuml
skinparam BackgroundColor transparent
skinparam componentStyle uml2
component A {
   component "A.1" {
}
   component A.44 {
      [A4.1]
}
   component "A.2"
   [A.3]
   component A.5 [
A.5] 
   component A.6 [
]
}
[a]->[b]
@enduml

  • If you want to suppress it, and to have only the rectangle, you can use skinparam componentStyle rectangle

@startuml
skinparam BackgroundColor transparent
skinparam componentStyle rectangle
component A {
   component "A.1" {
}
   component A.44 {
      [A4.1]
