Specialty diagram types¶
These diagram_type values are supported through Kroki (or the same pipeline as other types). Each uses its own input language; check the upstream project for full syntax. Use generate_uml with the matching diagram_type and code.
diagram_type | Use case |
|---|---|
excalidraw | Hand-drawn whiteboard look |
bytefield | Binary protocol byte layouts |
wavedrom | Digital timing / waveform |
pikchr | Pikchr diagram scripting language (Fossil-style) |
nomnoml | UML in shorthand |
svgbob | ASCII art to SVG |
vega / vegalite | Visualization grammars |
Output formats vary by type; use validate_uml or uml://formats before rendering.
