Draw.io Code Generator

Supported target languages are: Java, C#, C++, Python, TypeScript, PHP and SQL.

This is a fork of the https://github.com/Daandelange/DrawioCodeGenerator repository.
It brings the following notable improvements:

1. A GUI based on wxPython for an enhanced user experience.
2. The original Java and TypeScript code generators have been extended with new features.
3. New code generators have been added for C#, C++, Python, PHP and SQL with the same level of functionality as the original ones.
4. Generated xml and json documents are no longer stored in files but displayed on the GUI.
5. Abstract classes can be identified either by an italicized name or by a <<abstract>> stereotype applied to their name.
6. The <<enum>> and <<enumeration>> stereotypes indicate that a class is actually an enumeration.
7. A default value can be set for a property if the property definition ends with a string of the form " = default_value", which is very convenient for enumeration members.
8. It is also possible to attach constraints to class attributes. These must appear in curly braces to the right of the attribute definition. e.g.: -customer_id : int {id} or +getTotalCount() : int {static}. The recognized constraints are listed in one of the tables below
9. Code generators can produce a package or namespace directive if needed. They will also automatically generate an import (or using or #include or require_once) directive for any symbol that the generated class depends on.
10. Users can define additional modules and/or symbols to import into their class headers via the configuration dialog.
11. If necessary, code generators can produce other class members such as accessors (in the form of wrapped properties or getter/setter pairs), a default constructor, a fully parameterized constructor, and overrides for the equals, hashCode, and toString methods in languages ​​that support these features.
12. Each code generator supports a specific set of options (such as using the Lombok and/or JPA annotations for the Java code generator or specifying a SQL dialect for the SQL code generator).
13. The program recognizes a set of pseudo-data types that can be mapped to equivalent data types in each of the target languages. These are listed in one of the tables below.

Before all make sure that you have a python interpreter and a suitable development environment installed on your developper machine. Then open a command prompt on the project's root folder and run the following commands.

On Windows:

# create a virtual environment
python -m venv venv

# activate the virtual environment
venv\Scripts\activate

# install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

On Unix based platforms:

# create a virtual environment
python3 -m venv venv

# activate the virtual environment
source venv/bin/activate

# install the packages required to build the wxPython wheel
# works on ubuntu 24.04, you should adapt to your distribution
chmod +x ./install-packages.sh 
sudo ./install-packages.sh

# install dependencies
# building wxPython may take some time!
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

To launch the program use the following command.

On Windows:

# uncomment to activate the virtual environment if not yet done
# venv\Scripts\activate

# invoke python interpreter
python main.py

On Unix based platforms:

# uncomment to activate the virtual environment if not yet done
# source venv/bin/activate

# invoke python interpreter
python3 main.py

An ongoing effort is being made to make the program compatible with the widest variety of class diagrams but at this stage, some may not be parsed correctly, particularly entity-relationship diagrams which are a special type of class diagrams optimized for relational databases. Further improvements are still to come.
