Library to Dump/draw a state machine chart out of a Spring Statemachine

Supported Formats

• Eclipse MDT UML2 (used by Papyrus UML and UML Designer) (incomplete, under development)
• SCXML (incomplete, under development)

Status of Development

• States dumped
• Transitions with event triggers dumped
• Sub machines dumped
• Regions dumped
• MDT UML2 output
• SCXML (not complete mapping)
• Guards dumped
• Pseudostate JOIN dumped
• Pseudostate FORK dumped
• Pseudostate CHOICE dumped
• Pseudostate JUNCTION dumped
• Actions not dumped

• Time triggers not dumped
• Lots of the Pseudostates not dumped with their specialization
• Tests are not yet real tests

Usage

1. Put net.workingdeveloper.java.spring.statemachine.dumper-*.jar on your classpath
2. add these lines of code to your project source code:

• Eclipse MDT UML2 dumper:

     // StateMachine<S, E> stateMachine is configured before this point
     try {
         SsmDumper dumper = new SsmMdtUml2Dumper<>(stateMachine);
         File outputFile = new File("/path/to/output"); // ".uml" extension will be added by dumper
         dumper.dump().save(outputFile);
     } catch (IOException aE) {
         aE.printStackTrace();
     }

• SCXML dumper:

     // StateMachine<S, E> stateMachine is configured before this point
     try {
         SsmDumper dumper = new SsmMdtUml2Dumper<>(stateMachine);
         File outputFile = new File("/path/to/output"); // ".uml" extension will be added by dumper
         dumper.dump().save(outputFile);
     } catch (IOException aE) {
         aE.printStackTrace();
     }

1. Run your application code that executes the above lines
2. After the run has completed use UML Designer to open the generated /path/to/output.uml file and add a presentation (if you have choosen the SsmMdtUml2Dumper class as dumper):
   1. Create a workspace and project to copy the /path/to/output in: (Needs only be done for the first time, if you haven't a UML Designer project)
      1. Start UML Designer
      2. Choose your workspace e.g. ~/workspace/UMLdesigner
      3. Create a project e.g. ssm_dumps
   2. Copy the /path/to/output.uml to the project e.g. to ~/workspace/UMLdeisgner/ssm_dumps
   3. [...to be continued...]
