    Posted on 1 min

    Hacktoberfest Opensource Maintainer

    This post have been published first on dev.to .

    Earlier this year, I want to be able to automatically export diagrams from a drawio file. This need lead to the creation of 2 new open-sources projects :

    The drawio-cli project is responsible to generate a docker image with a raw cli of drawio (thanks drawio-desktop ) for that.

    The drawio-export project use the drawio-cli project to enhance initial export capabilities.

    Support latest version of Drawio-desktop

    At the beginning of Hacktoberfest, @danquash start working of this issue

    After an awesome work on debugging the version bump issues, he have create 2 pull-requests (1 on each project)

    Thanks to him.

    Some enhancement issues have been available for contribution during this Hacktoberfest 2020.

    This new --on-changes option, to improve the speed of diagrams generation, have been develop by @Nico385412 .
