| #### Example: PlantUML | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| You can add [PlantUML](https://plantuml.com/) support to Gitea's markdown by using a PlantUML server. | ||||
| The data is encoded and sent to the PlantUML server which generates the picture. There is an online  | ||||
| demo server at http://www.plantuml.com/plantuml, but if you (or your users) have sensitive data you  | ||||
| can set up your own [PlantUML server](https://plantuml.com/server) instead. To set up PlantUML rendering, | ||||
| copy javascript files from https://gitea.com/davidsvantesson/plantuml-code-highlight and put them in your | ||||
| `custom/public` folder. Then add the following to `custom/footer.tmpl`: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ```html | ||||
| {{if .RequireHighlightJS}} | ||||
| <script src="https://your-server.com/deflate.js"></script> | ||||
| <script src="https://your-server.com/encode.js"></script> | ||||
| <script src="https://your-server.com/plantuml_codeblock_parse.js"></script> | ||||
| <script> | ||||
| <!-- Replace call with address to your plantuml server--> | ||||
| parsePlantumlCodeBlocks("http://www.plantuml..com/plantuml") | ||||
| </script> | ||||
| {{end}} | ||||
| ``` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| You can then add blocks like the following to your markdown: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     ```plantuml | ||||
|         Alice -> Bob: Authentication Request | ||||
|         Bob --> Alice: Authentication Response | ||||
|          | ||||
|         Alice -> Bob: Another authentication Request | ||||
|         Alice <-- Bob: Another authentication Response | ||||
|     ``` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| The script will detect tags with `class="language-plantuml"`, but you can change this by providing a second argument to `parsePlantumlCodeBlocks`. | ||||
