Support for PlantUML diagrams #438

Open ChevronTango opened 1 year ago

ChevronTango commented 1 year ago

Our org makes heavy use of plantuml in our diagrams, and when rendering those in GitLab this works fine, but when viewing the docs in retype the plantuml diagrams all fail. We'd very much like those diagrams to be rendered in retype aswell.

Our plantuml instance is self hosted, so the integration should include an override to specify the host.

Can you provide a code sample demonstrating how you are linking to your PlantUML diagrams? Are you using a Markdown image with the URL pointing to a .png on your PlantUML server?

This document explains it far better than any example I could write. We use GitLab for everything, including docs, and we host a Retype site of those docs via GitLab Pages, but PlantUML is one area where there's a clear difference in their feature sets.
