# PlantUML
Renders UML diagram as defined in a text file. For full syntax of the text file, see:
http://plantuml.sourceforge.net/index.html
1. Install the extension from Chrome Web Store.
2. Check "Allow access to file URLs" in chrome://extensions/.
3. Open local or remote text file with UML diagram definition in browser (the text starts with @startuml).
4. See the rendered UML diagram!
If the plugin stops working after update, uncheck and check the "Allow access to file URLs" in chrome://extensions/ again.
If it does not help, clear the cache (strange Chrome caching behavior). I do not know, what Chrome is doing, but I had to reload background page and popup page of the extension after update.
## Features
– Automatically updates the diagram when the local file is changed.
– You can use your own server by changing the server URL in the popup of the action button (action button is displayed while viewing PlantUML files).
