mermaid-server
Use mermaid-js to generate diagrams in a HTTP endpoint.
While this currently serves the diagrams via HTTP, it could easily be manipulated to server diagrams via other means.
Basic usage
Docker
Run the container:
docker run -d --name mermaid-server -p 80:80 tomwright/mermaid-server:latest
Manually as a go command
Start the HTTP server:
go run cmd/app/main.go --mermaid=./mermaidcli/node_modules/.bin/mmdc --in=./in --out=./out
Diagram creation
Use the query param 'type' to change between 'png' and 'svg' defaults to 'svg'.
POST
Send a CURL request to generate a diagram via POST
:
curl --location --request POST 'http://localhost:80/generate' \
--header 'Content-Type: text/plain' \
--data-raw 'graph LR
A-->B
B-->C
C-->D
C-->F
'
GET
Send a CURL request to generate a diagram via GET
... send in url encoded data under the data
query param:
curl --location --request GET 'http://localhost:80/generate?data=graph%20LR%0A%0A%20%20%20%20A--%3EB%0A%20%20%20%20B--%3EC%0A%20%20%20%20C--%3ED%0A%20%20%20%20C--%3EF%0A'
Caching
All generated diagram input and output will be cached for 1 hour. The cache time is reset whenever a cached diagram is accessed.
