UML Class Diagram
A class diagram visually depicts the static structure of an application and is extensively employed in modeling object-oriented systems. It holds a unique position in UML diagrams, as it directly aligns with object-oriented languages. The diagram also facilitates automatic generation of class diagram shapes based on business logic, streamlining the translation from conceptual models to practical implementation.
UML Class Diagram Shapes
The UML class diagram shapes are explained as follows.
Class
-
A class defines a group of objects that share common specifications, features, constraints, and semantics. To create a class object, the classifier should be defined using the
class
notation. This notation serves as a foundational element in object-oriented programming, encapsulating the essential characteristics and behavior that objects belonging to the class will exhibit. -
Also, define the
name
,attributes
, andmethods
of the class using the class property of node. -
The attribute’s
name
,type
, andscope
properties allow you to define the name, data type, and visibility of the attribute. -
The method’s
name
,parameters
,type
, andscope
properties allow you to define the name, parameter, return type, and visibility of the methods. -
The method
parameters
object properties allow you to define the name and type of the parameter. -
The following code example illustrates how to create a class.
import { DiagramModule, DiagramContextMenuService,DiagramComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-diagrams'
import { Component, ViewChild } from "@angular/core";
import { NodeModel, UmlClassifierShapeModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-diagrams';
@Component({
imports: [
DiagramModule
],
providers: [DiagramContextMenuService],
standalone: true,
selector: "app-container",
// specifies the template string for the diagram component
template: `<ejs-diagram id="diagram" width="100%" height="580px" [nodes]='nodes'></ejs-diagram>`
})
export class AppComponent {
@ViewChild("diagram")
public diagram?: DiagramComponent;
public nodes: NodeModel[] = [
{
id: "Patient",
//Position of the node
offsetX: 200,
offsetY: 200,
style: {
fill: '#26A0DA',
},
shape: {
type: "UmlClassifier",
//Define class object
classShape: {
name: "Patient",
//Define class attributes
attributes: [{ name: "accepted", type: "Date" }],
//Define class methods
methods: [{ name: "getHistory", type: "getHistory" }]
},
classifier: "Class"
} as UmlClassifierShapeModel
}
];
}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));
Interface
-
An
interface
is a specific type of classifier that signifies a declaration of a cohesive set of public features and obligations. When creating an interface, it involves defining the classifier property using the interface notation. This essential concept in object-oriented programming outlines a contract for classes to adhere to, specifying the required methods and behaviors without delving into the implementation details. -
Also, define the
name
,attributes
, andmethods
of the interface using the interface property of the node. -
The attribute’s name, type, and scope properties allow you to define the name, data type, and visibility of the attribute.
-
The method’s name, parameter, type, and scope properties allow you to define the name, parameter, return type, and visibility of the methods.
-
The method parameter object properties of name and type allows you to define the name and type of the parameter.
-
The following code example illustrates how to create an interface.
import { DiagramModule, DiagramContextMenuService,DiagramComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-diagrams'
import { Component, ViewChild } from "@angular/core";
import { NodeModel, UmlClassifierShapeModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-diagrams';
@Component({
imports: [
DiagramModule
],
providers: [DiagramContextMenuService],
standalone: true,
selector: "app-container",
// specifies the template string for the diagram component
template: `<ejs-diagram id="diagram" width="100%" height="580px" [nodes]='nodes'></ejs-diagram>`
})
export class AppComponent {
@ViewChild("diagram")
public diagram?: DiagramComponent;
public nodes: NodeModel[] = [
{
id: "Patient",
//Position of the node
offsetX: 200,
offsetY: 200,
style: {
fill: '#26A0DA',
},
shape: {
type: "UmlClassifier",
//Define interface object
interfaceShape: {
name: "Patient",
//Define interface attributes
attributes: [{ name: "owner", type: "String[*]" }],
//Define interface methods
methods: [
{
name: "deposit",
parameters: [
{
name: "amount",
type: "Dollars"
}
]
}
]
},
classifier: "Interface"
} as UmlClassifierShapeModel
}
];
}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));
Enumeration
-
To establish an enumeration, designate the classifier property of the node as enumeration. Additionally, define the
name
and enumerate themembers
of the enumeration using the appropriate enumeration property of the node. This process encapsulates a set of distinct values within the enumeration, allowing for a clear representation of specific, named constants within a system. -
You can set a name for the enumeration members collection using the
name
property of members collection. -
The following code example illustrates how to create an enumeration.
import { DiagramModule, DiagramContextMenuService,DiagramComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-diagrams'
import { Component, ViewChild } from "@angular/core";
import { NodeModel, UmlClassifierShapeModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-diagrams';
@Component({
imports: [
DiagramModule
],
providers: [DiagramContextMenuService],
standalone: true,
selector: "app-container",
// specifies the template string for the diagram component
template: `<ejs-diagram id="diagram" width="100%" height="580px" [nodes]='nodes'></ejs-diagram>`
})
export class AppComponent {
@ViewChild("diagram")
public diagram?: DiagramComponent;
public nodes: NodeModel[] = [
{
id: "Patient",
offsetX: 200,
offsetY: 200,
style: {
fill: '#26A0DA',
},
shape: {
type: "UmlClassifier",
//Define enumeration object
enumerationShape: {
name: "AccountType",
//set the members of enumeration
members: [
{
name: "Checking Account",
},
{
name: "Savings Account"
},
{
name: "Credit Account"
}
]
},
classifier: "Enumeration"
} as UmlClassifierShapeModel
}
];
}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));
UML Class Relationships
- A class may be involved in one or more relationships with other classes. A relationship can be one of the following types:
Shape | Image |
---|---|
Association | |
Aggregation | |
Composition | |
Inheritance | |
Dependency |
Association
Association
is basically a set of links that connects elements of an UML model. The type of association are as follows.
1. Directional
2. BiDirectional
The association property allows you to define the type of association. The default value of association is“Directional”
. The following code example illustrates how to create an association.
import { DiagramModule, DiagramContextMenuService,DiagramComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-diagrams'
import { Component, ViewChild } from "@angular/core";
import { ConnectorModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-diagrams';
@Component({
imports: [
DiagramModule
],
providers: [DiagramContextMenuService],
standalone: true,
selector: "app-container",
// specifies the template string for the diagram component
template: `<ejs-diagram id="diagram" width="100%" height="580px" [connectors]='connectors'></ejs-diagram>`
})
export class AppComponent {
@ViewChild("diagram")
public diagram?: DiagramComponent;
public connectors: ConnectorModel[] = [
{
id: "connector",
//Define connector start and end points
sourcePoint: { x: 100, y: 100 },
targetPoint: { x: 300, y: 300 },
type: "Straight",
shape: {
type: "UmlClassifier",
relationship: "Association",
//Define type of association
associationType: "Default"
}
},
{
id: "connector1",
//Define connector start and end points
sourcePoint: { x: 200, y: 100 },
targetPoint: { x: 400, y: 300 },
type: "Straight",
shape: {
type: "UmlClassifier",
relationship: "Association",
//Define type of association
associationType: "BiDirectional"
}
}
];
}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));
Aggregation
Aggregation
is a binary association between a property and one or more composite objects that group together a set of instances. Aggregation is decorated with a hollow diamond. To create an aggregation shape, define the relationship
of connector shape as “Aggregation”.
The following code example illustrates how to create an aggregation.
import { DiagramModule, DiagramContextMenuService,DiagramComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-diagrams'
import { Component, ViewChild } from "@angular/core";
import { ConnectorModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-diagrams';
@Component({
imports: [
DiagramModule
],
providers: [DiagramContextMenuService],
standalone: true,
selector: "app-container",
// specifies the template string for the diagram component
template: `<ejs-diagram id="diagram" width="100%" height="580px" [connectors]='connectors'></ejs-diagram>`
})
export class AppComponent {
@ViewChild("diagram")
public diagram?: DiagramComponent;
public connectors: ConnectorModel[] = [
{
id: "connector",
//Define connector start and end points
sourcePoint: { x: 100, y: 100 },
targetPoint: { x: 300, y: 300 },
type: "Straight",
shape: {
type: "UmlClassifier",
//Set an relationship for connector
relationship: "Aggregation"
}
}
];
}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));
Composition
Composition is a strong form of aggregation
. The composition is decorated with a black diamond. To create a composition shape, define the relationship
property of the connector shape as “Composition”.
The following code example illustrates how to create a composition.
import { DiagramModule, DiagramContextMenuService,DiagramComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-diagrams'
import { Component, ViewChild } from "@angular/core";
import { ConnectorModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-diagrams';
@Component({
imports: [
DiagramModule
],
providers: [DiagramContextMenuService],
standalone: true,
selector: "app-container",
// specifies the template string for the diagram component
template: `<ejs-diagram id="diagram" width="100%" height="580px" [connectors]='connectors'></ejs-diagram>`
})
export class AppComponent {
@ViewChild("diagram")
public diagram?: DiagramComponent;
public connectors: ConnectorModel[] = [
{
id: "connector",
//Define connector start and end points
sourcePoint: { x: 100, y: 100 },
targetPoint: { x: 300, y: 300 },
type: "Straight",
shape: {
type: "UmlClassifier",
//Set an relationship for connector
relationship: "Composition"
}
}
];
}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));
Inheritance
Inheritance is also called as “generalization”. Inheritance is a binary taxonomic directed relationship between a more general classifier (super class) and a more specific classifier (subclass). Inheritance is shown as a line with hollow triangle.
To create an inheritance, define the relationship
as “inheritance”.
The following code example illustrates how to create an inheritance.
import { DiagramModule, DiagramContextMenuService,DiagramComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-diagrams'
import { Component, ViewChild } from "@angular/core";
import { ConnectorModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-diagrams';
@Component({
imports: [
DiagramModule
],
providers: [DiagramContextMenuService],
standalone: true,
selector: "app-container",
// specifies the template string for the diagram component
template: `<ejs-diagram id="diagram" width="100%" height="580px" [connectors]='connectors'></ejs-diagram>`
})
export class AppComponent {
@ViewChild("diagram")
public diagram?: DiagramComponent;
public connectors: ConnectorModel[] = [
{
id: "connector",
//Define connector start and end points
sourcePoint: { x: 100, y: 100 },
targetPoint: { x: 300, y: 300 },
type: "Straight",
shape: {
type: "UmlClassifier",
//set an relation of connector
relationship: "Inheritance"
}
}
];
}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));
Dependency
Dependency is a directed relationship, which is used to show that some UML elements needs or depends on other model elements for specifications. Dependency is shown as dashed line with opened arrow. To create a dependency, define the relationship
property of the connector shape as “dependency”.
The following code example illustrates how to create an dependency.
import { DiagramModule, DiagramContextMenuService,DiagramComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-diagrams'
import { Component, ViewChild } from "@angular/core";
import { ConnectorModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-diagrams';
@Component({
imports: [
DiagramModule
],
providers: [DiagramContextMenuService],
standalone: true,
selector: "app-container",
// specifies the template string for the diagram component
template: `<ejs-diagram id="diagram" width="100%" height="580px" [connectors]='connectors'></ejs-diagram>`
})
export class AppComponent {
@ViewChild("diagram")
public diagram?: DiagramComponent;
public connectors: ConnectorModel[] = [
{
id: "connector",
//Define connector start and end points
sourcePoint: { x: 100, y: 100 },
targetPoint: { x: 300, y: 300 },
type: "Straight",
shape: {
type: "UmlClassifier",
//Set relationship for connector
relationship: "Dependency"
}
}
];
}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));
Multiplicity
Multiplicity is a definition of an inclusive interval of non-negative integers to specify the allowable number of instances of described element. The type of multiplicity are as follows.
1. OneToOne
2. ManyToOne
3. OneToMany
4. ManyToMany
By default the multiplicity will be considered as “OneToOne”.
The multiplicity property in UML allows you to specify large number of elements or some collection of elements.
The shape multiplicity’s source
property is used to set the source label to connector and the target
property is used to set the target label to connector.
To set an optionality or cardinality for the connector source label, use optional
property.
The lowerBounds
and upperBounds
could be natural constants or constant expressions evaluated to natural (non negative) number. Upper bound could be also specified as asterisk ‘*’ which denotes unlimited number of elements. Upper bound should be greater than or equal to the lower bound.
The following code example illustrates how to customize the multiplicity.
import { DiagramModule, DiagramContextMenuService,DiagramComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-diagrams'
import { Component, ViewChild } from "@angular/core";
import { ConnectorModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-diagrams';
@Component({
imports: [
DiagramModule
],
providers: [DiagramContextMenuService],
standalone: true,
selector: "app-container",
// specifies the template string for the diagram component
template: `<ejs-diagram id="diagram" width="100%" height="580px" [connectors]='connectors'></ejs-diagram>`
})
export class AppComponent {
@ViewChild("diagram")
public diagram?: DiagramComponent;
public connectors: ConnectorModel[] = [
{
id: 'connector1',
//Define connector start and end points

lowerBounds: '78',
upperBounds: '90',
},
},
},
},
{

optional: true,
lowerBounds: '78',
upperBounds: '90',
},
},
},
},
];

How to add UML child at runtime
In UML nodes, child elements such as member, method and attribute can be added either programmatically or interactively.
Adding UML child through code
The addChildToUmlNode method is employed for dynamically adding a child to the UML node during runtime, providing flexibility in modifying the diagram structure programmatically.
The following code example illustrates how to add members, methods and attributes to UML node at rumtime.
import { DiagramModule, DiagramContextMenuService,DiagramComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-diagrams'
import { Component, ViewEncapsulation, ViewChild } from "@angular/core";
import { NodeModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-diagrams';
@Component({
imports: [
DiagramModule
],
providers: [DiagramContextMenuService],
standalone: true,
selector: "app-container",
// specifies the template string for the diagram component
template: `
<button (click)="addMethod()">addMethod</button>
<button (click)="addAttribute()">addAttribute</button>
<button (click)="addMember()">addMember</button>
<ejs-diagram #diagram id="diagram" width="100%" height="600" [nodes]="nodes" >
</ejs-diagram>`,
encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None
})
export class AppComponent {
@ViewChild('diagram')
public diagram?: DiagramComponent | undefined;
addMethod() {
let node: any = (this.diagram as any).nodes[0];
let methods: any = {
name: 'getHistory',
style: { color: 'red' },
parameters: [{ name: 'Date', style: {} }],
type: 'History',
};
(this.diagram as any).addChildToUmlNode(node, methods, 'Method');
}
addAttribute() {
let node: any = (this.diagram as any).nodes[0];
let attributes: any = { name: 'accepted', type: 'Date', style: { color: "red", } };
(this.diagram as any).addChildToUmlNode(node, attributes, "Attribute");
}
addMember() {
let node: any = (this.diagram as any).nodes[1];
let members: any = { name: 'Checking new', style: { color: "red", } };
(this.diagram as any).addChildToUmlNode(node, members, "Member");
}
public nodes: NodeModel[] = [
{
id: 'node1',
offsetX: 150,
offsetY: 150,
style: {

},
}
];
}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));
Adding UML child through user interaction
To include a child, select a node, move the mouse outside it, and position the pointer near the right side. A highlighter emerges between the two child elements. Click the highlighter to add a child type to the chosen UML node seamlessly. The following gif illustrates how to add Child through user interaction.
Adding UML Nodes in Symbol palette
UML built-in shapes are easily rendered in a symbol palette. The symbols
property of palettes
is used to define UML symbols with the necessary classes and methods. This feature allows you to add a collection of predefined UML symbols to the palette, making your UML diagramming application more versatile.
The following code example showcases the rendering of UML built-in shapes in a symbol palette
import { DiagramModule, SymbolPaletteModule,NodeModel, MarginModel, PaletteModel,SymbolInfo,DiagramComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-diagrams'

Editing in UML nodes
You can edit the name, attributes, and methods of the class diagram shapes just double clicking, similar to editing a node annotation.
The following image illustrates how the text editor looks in an edit mode.
UML Activity diagram
An Activity diagram functions as a visual flowchart, illustrating the progression from one activity to the next within a system. Each activity corresponds to a system operation, providing a clear depiction of the sequential flow in a dynamic process..
The purpose of an activity diagram can be described as follows.
1. Draw the activity flow of a system.
2. Describe the sequence from one activity to another.
3. Describe the parallel, branched, and concurrent flow of the system.
UML Activity diagram Shapes
To create a UmlActivity, define type as “UmlActivity” and the list of built-in shapes as demonstrated as follows and it should be set in the “shape” property.
Shape | Image |
---|---|
Action | |
Decision | |
MergeNode | |
InitialNode | |
FinalNode | |
ForkNode | |
JoinNode | |
TimeEvent | |
AcceptingEvent | |
SendSignal | |
ReceiveSignal | |
StructuredNode | |
Note |
The following code illustrates how to create a UmlActivity shapes.

Uml Activity connector
To establish a UML Activity connector, specify the type
of connector shape as “UmlActivity” and define the flow as either “Exception,” “Control,” or “Object.” This configuration delineates the nature of the connection, allowing for a precise representation of the interaction within the activity diagram.
The following code illustrates how to create a UmlActivity connector.
import { DiagramModule, DiagramContextMenuService ,BpmnFlows, DiagramComponent} from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-diagrams'
import { Component, ViewChild } from "@angular/core";
import { ConnectorModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-diagrams';
@Component({
imports: [
DiagramModule
],
providers: [DiagramContextMenuService],
standalone: true,
selector: "app-container",
// specifies the template string for the diagram component
template: `<ejs-diagram id="diagram" width="100%" height="580px" [connectors]='connectors'></ejs-diagram>`
})
export class AppComponent {
@ViewChild("diagram")
public diagram?: DiagramComponent;
public connectors: ConnectorModel[] = [
{
id: 'connector',
type: 'Straight',
//Define connector start and end points
sourcePoint: { x: 100, y: 100 },
targetPoint: { x: 200, y: 200 },
shape: { type: 'UmlActivity', flow: 'Exception' as BpmnFlows }
}
];
}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));
