Break changes ⚠️

Configure PlantumlSession

Now the Export method is an extension method of PlantumlSession

new PlantumlSession()
    .UseDiagramImageBuilder() 
    .UseStandardLibraryBaseUrl()
    .Export(diagrams);

• But, if you want to use the C4-PlantUML up-to-date version from their repo use this method UseStandardLibraryBaseUrl()
• To save the *.png files you should use the method UseDiagramImageBuilder()

Instanciating Structures

Now the structure instantiation should be more explicit like this:

public static Person Customer => new Person("customer", "Personal Banking Customer")
{
    Description = "A customer of the bank, with personal bank accounts."
};

// Systems
public static SoftwareSystem BankingSystem => new SoftwareSystem("BankingSystem", "Internet Banking System")
{
    Description = "Allows customers to view information about their bank accounts, and make payments."
};

public static SoftwareSystem Mainframe => new SoftwareSystem("Mainframe", "Mainframe Banking System")
{
    Description = "Stores all of the core banking information about customers, accounts, transactions, etc.",
    Boundary = Boundary.External
};

public static SoftwareSystem MailSystem => new SoftwareSystem("MailSystem", "E-mail system")
{
    Description = "The internal Microsoft Exchange e-mail system.",
    Boundary = Boundary.External
};
