plantuml layer

This layer enables support for puml-mode, which provides a major-mode for plantuml. PlantUML is a tool to generate UML diagrams from plain-text.

For help with how to use plantuml, see the plantuml website and the reference guide.

The official file extension supported by this layer is .pum. If you want something else, set it in your user-config function of your ~/.spacemacs file.

For example, the following diagram can be defined as follows:

@startuml
JAremko->robbyoconnor : I think the docs can benefit from some kind of illustration
JAremko<-robbyoconnor : I'm too lazy -- I have actual work to do. I link to the docs. If you can write me a diagram in plantuml, I'll gladly compile and add it.
JAremko->robbyoconnor : *gives ths diagram*
robbyoconnor<-JAremko : *robbyoconnor adds it and JAremko is happy*
...
robbyoconnor->theOtherPerson : And they thinks it's funny? Yup, they definitely finds it funny. Right?

To use this contribution add it to your ~/.spacemacs

(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(plantuml))

To enable the execution of embedded plantuml code blocks within Org-Mode documents, define a value for org-plantuml-jar-path in your ~/.spacemacs.
