PUed is a PlantUML (http://plantuml.sourceforge.net/) scripts editor able to generate UML diagram images (PNG) by means of the PlantUML and Graphviz capabilities. PUed is a java desktop application based on the JavaFX technology. The user interface is so simple and friendly that basically there is no need of help.

External libraries

In general all the libraries provided in lib distribution folder may be substituted with more recent versions if available.

PlantUML

It is recommended to update the PlantUML library (plantuml.jar) provided in lib distribution folder when a more recent versions if available (see http://plantuml.sourceforge.net/download). It is possible to get the currently used PlantUML version by loading in the PUed editor the following script (for example by pressing "Help" and then "Plugin version" from the PUed toolbar) and generating the diagram.

@startuml
version
@enduml

Graphviz

The Graphviz platform (http://www.graphviz.org/) is required in order to exploit all PlantUML features. If Graphviz is installed then the GRAPHVIZ_DOT environment variable shall be configured to reference the dot executable. For example, in Microsoft Windows, assuming "C:\Graphviz" as the root path, then GRAPHVIZ_DOT shall point to "C:\Graphviz\bin\dot.exe".

Installing and running

To install PUed simply unzip the distribution file (PUed-x_y_z.zip) in a void folder.

A Java Virtual Machine (1.8+) and a graphical environment is required to run the PUed application.

From an enabled desktop:

• double click on PUed-x.y.z.jar

From a console:

• java -jar PUed-x.y.z.jar
• javaw -jar PUed-x.y.z.jar

After the first run in the user home directory the ".pued" folder is created.
In this folder the PUed application stores user's configuration and data such as the recent used file list.
