Statesman State Diagram

Gem Version Travis CI Coveralls

Extension of Statesman to get state diagrams.

Adds .to_dot method to Statesman::Machine. It can export your machine class definition to the DOT format.

Also adds a Rake task called statesman:diagram. It runs the dot program (GraphViz) to make a PNG image from the DOT representation of the machine class.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

group :development do
  gem 'statesman-diagram'
end

And then execute:

bundle

Or install it yourself as:

gem install statesman-diagram

Prerequisites

  • GraphViz (the dot program):
    • brew install graphviz on macOS.
    • sudo apt-get install graphviz on Ubuntu / Debian.

Usage

Run:

rake statesman:diagram[My::State::Machine::Class]

Find the state diagram of this class in My_State_Machine_Class.png.

You can also specify the name of the file:

rake statesman:diagram[My::State::Machine::Class, ./temp/state]

And the state diagram of this class will be placed in ./temp/state.png.
