wsd-mode

wsd-mode uses websequencediagrams.com to generate sequence diagrams. A set of example diagrams is available to help you get going with building a diagram.

You can use any of the following styles with your websequencediagram:

  • default
  • earth
  • magazine
  • modern-blue
  • mscgen
  • napkin
  • omegapple
  • patent
  • qsd
  • rose
  • roundgreen

You can also see details about wsd-mode at the wsd-mode source repository. The default is modern-blue. Here’s a sample showing a simplified SAML workflow:

First, let’s use a little lisp to set the style:

(set 'wsd-style '"napkin" ) ; note you have to quote the quoted value

C-c to execute and you’ll get the following result:

napkin

That just means that the variable has been set.
