The Diagrams extension is a MediaWiki extension. When used with the Extension "Semantic Result Formats" extension, it lets you create and display graphs as inline images on wiki pages, using the open-source Graphviz and Mscgen applications:
- Graphviz is a program that allows the creation of numerous types of graphs using the DOT language.
- Mscgen is a small program that parses Message Sequence Chart descriptions.
Additionally, this extension supports multiple graphs on one page, wiki links in graphs, and automatic pruning of old images.
It replaces the extension "GraphViz" (MediaWiki.org) in some ways, but does not (yet) support all features of either of them. The primary reason for a different extension is to not store the rendered images as wiki files.
