Help using protobuf-uml-diagram

[Hdd87]

Hi!
Thank you for replying to my message on insta!

My goal is to create UML class diagrams from proto files in the following repository:
https://github.com/th2-net ,

an example proto file is :
https://github.com/th2-net/th2-grpc-common/blob/master/src/main/proto/th2_grpc_common/common.proto

My machine is using windows 10 .

what I did so far:

1. I cloned all the repositories I needed into my local machine and then I separated the .proto files into a separate folder .
2. Next using CMD I ran pip install protobuf-uml-diagram and it looks like the installation was okay since the message says "Requirement already satisfied" .( attached a snap shot below)

3. Next I ran protobuf-uml-diagram and I received this :

Questions :

1. what are the next steps to take to proceed with creating some UML class diagrams
2. what are the sections USAGE , Logging output, and TL;DR used for ?
3. do you have any videos about using your repository? :)

Thank you !

Deleted #63 as it was duplicating this one.

Hi @kinow

yes I can see the module

[kinow]

Thanks.

Does this command exit successfully? python -c 'import protobuf_uml_diagram'

It will import the protobuf_uml_diagram. If this command works, but protobuf-uml-diagram` doesn't, that will confirm the module is installed but the script is not.

@kinow I typed this command in CMD and this was the result

[kinow]

protobuf_uml_diagram is the module. The program is protobuf-uml-diagram.

If you were using a virtual environment I think it would be easier to locate the directory with the script, but on Linux it would be something like ~/.local/bin. Maybe you can check where these scripts get installed on Windows and verify if the protobuf-uml-diagram exists where expected.

Thanks @kinow ! I did pip show command and

if I was using a linux machine what would we be the proper steps to follow to get the program to start running ?
