Syntax

participant

You don't need to define participant, but for alignment, you should.

participant User // this will be front
; or
participant "with a2a!@#!$" as A // you can use this like 'A -> User: ***'
; or
participant "new
line" as nl // this will be last

arrow

User->New: message // participant 'New' will defined automatically at here
; or
User-->New: message
; or
User<-A: message
; or
User<--A: message
; or
nl -> nl: " realllly // with multiple lines
looooooong
messageee"
; or
ee <- ee: "
  you can't use like this" // when using new line, you should add 1 character to first line at least. I'll fix this soon.

You can also customize styles by editing style.h.

  • Add support for piping commands in CLI

    Add support for piping commands in CLI

    Here is a commit that allows seqdia to use pipes like this! echo "Alice -> Bob: hello world" | seqdia

    This also makes it possible to call it from vim using :h filter.

  • Add option to not print the surrounding === lines

    Add option to not print the surrounding === lines

    The lines surrounding the generated diagrams (========) are inconvenient when seqdia is used in scripts (or e.g. slides) to generate diagrams on the fly, especially because they are colour coded.

    This PR introduces the raw option which when specified, makes the renderer not print those lines.
