Integration with Atlassian Confluence
« on: January 28, 2014, 01:14:21 am »
I know i can use the HTML Report generator to export snapshots of my model out to a web-server

I was wondering if there is a plug-in for Confluence which would let me link to diagrams in Enterprise Architect

Does anyone know of one

I have seen
https://confluence.deiser.com/display/ECJ/EA+Connector+for+JIRA+Documentation

but this seems to be linking requirements <> JIRA

I was hoping to find something which would allow me to 'link/embed' my UML diagrams in EA into my design documentation in Confluence

Any pointers gratefully received

We also would be interested in some form of Confluence-EA link as a way to make EA diagrams more easily reviewable.

The method that we've used here is:

1. Publish the model as HTML on a web server.
2. Publish links to specific elements in confluence.

Since the low level linking relies on GUID, republishing the model from EA, refreshes the content.

This mechanism is what I was about to set up - just wanted to check that there isn't a better solution

Do you refresh the web server from the model automatically or manually

Thanks

Manually, at this stage in the project our models are reasonably stable.
