I have created sample android project. Now i have to create sequence diagram for that. Is there any way to automatically generate sequence diagram for android project from android studio.
Finally I got the solution.
I have installed a plugin, previously called SequencePluginReload from Android Studio, now called SequenceDiagram
It is very easy to use and works like charm.
I have downloaded SequenceDiagram suggested by #venkatesh in above answer, but didn't understand how to use it. After searching I found how to use it.
Download the zip file in the above link.
Go to Android Studio>Preferences in Mac. For Windows File>Settings.
Search for Plugins in search box. Then in right click on 'install plugin
from disk'. Browse for the downloaded zip and select it, then Apply and
it will show icon to restart android studio. Do it.
Now go to any method in your java file and right click on it and click on 'Sequence Diagram'. And you will find your diagram in a tab besides Debug,Terminal, version control etc.
I think it's hard to get a sequence diagram. But we can generate a class diagram from Android Studio. We need to install an external plug-in.

I have created a libgdx project using the installer from http://libgdx.badlogicgames.com/download.html and the Gradle extension for Android Studio.
Example for IntelliJ IDEA: Go to the Hiero class, right click and select Run Hiero.main(). On the Run >configurations popup that will appear, select the Desktop module, and click Run.
How do you do this under Android Studio?
I just found out the procedure. I leave the answer for those fellow beginners who may come across this problem like me:
go to structure tab beneath the project tab and the rest is the same as the above example for IntelliJ IDEA
I'm very new to Android, I downloaded sample project from Developer.android.com,
and when I open in Android studio,I couldn't see clean or Build option.
please guide how to build this project.
Is there any good sample code for Navigation Drawer with activities and Images?
Thanks.
As Kristy Welsh pointed you need to import the project.
Video how to import.
Project with Navigation Drawer.
It looks to me like you have a project that was created in eclipse. Try importing that project into Android Studio and it will do the build for you.
There should be a big green play-symbol you can click. It then opens a pop-up where you can choose to either run it on an emulated version or load it onto a connected android device (provided you have the drivers and the phone allows this direct installation). An alternative would be to build an .apk and put it into your phone's file system to then install it via the phone. This takes way more time but is the way to distribute your app to friends without using the play store.
if there is no error after downloading ,try to sync the project
You have to add a Configuration at Run>Run Configuration>Green Plus>Android Applicatio. now select your Launch Activity and your Module
What is the best tool for generating UML diagrams from Java source files in Android Studio? Are there any plugins similar to ObjectAid in Android Studio.
There is no Visual Paradigm EE shown as described http://www.visual-paradigm.com/support/documents/vpuserguide/2381/2385/66578_creatingauml.html
Try Code Iris. You can install it in Android Studio as a plugin.
Open Android Studio Settings: File -> Settings. Look for Plugins, then hit "Browse repositories..." and type "Code Iris". Install and restart your IDE.
There is another plugin that could be interesting too, which is PlantUML. You may need to install Graphviz in order to make it work.
Code Iris allows to export your diagram into a json file.
PlantUML allows to save your diagram as a PNG file.
Hope it helps.
Two things you need to understand.
You need to first install VP and then the plugin, for this to work.
VP is tricking you to think it's available in the CE edition, when in
fact it is not. They state at some point that this feature is
only available for the Standard Edition and above. So the name of
the plugin is tricking you into this. Thus you're limited to a 30
day trial.
They say:
...Visual Paradigm Community Edition supports running inside Eclipse, NetBeans, IntelliJ and Visual Studio. Without leaving your IDE, you can review your software design described in UML.
To install the plug-in:
The proper path to go is from the File item, go to Settings. Then in the new settings window, scroll down (left side) to Plugins. Click on it and the Plugins menu (sub-window) will open. At the bottom of that there is a button called Browse repositories.... Click on it, and there will be yet another window (phuh!) with a very long list of plugins. There are hundreds, so use the search bar in that window and type "Visual Paradigm", this will give you only one choice, the "Visual Paradigm SDE for IntelliJ IDEA (Community Edition)". Click on it and then again on the right side, on the green button that says Install plugin. Accept the install and then restart AS.
To use the native windows app:
To create an UML from reversing the Java code in VP, look at this post.
For creating UML class diagram in android studio use the following steps :
Press Ctrl+Alt+S (or go to Settings), then go to the Plugins tab, press "Browse repositories" button then search "Visual Paradigm SDE for intelliJ" install this plugin into Android Studio and restart the IDE.
After successfully install the above plugin follow the step which are listed on following URL:

I have exactly the same problem as mohheadeer. The only difference is that my project did not exist in phonegap 2.9 before.
I'm using android studios and added the path to the downloaded .jar in file->project structure->SDKs but it doesn't solve the problem. Is this the right point to add th path?
Just like mohheader I find this solution kind of strange. Does anybody have another idea? What is the reason for this problem?
By going below mentioned site download the phone gap/cordova latest one
[http://phonegap.com/]
by going to eclipse
Help-->Install New Software
click on Add button,in that paste the url which i am providing and download the phonegap plugins to eclipse
below is the which i'm providing
https://svn.codespot.com/a/eclipselabs.org/mobile-web-development-with-phonegap/tags/r1.2/download
and after that press cntl+N in that choose phonegap for andriod project ,click on Next button
where you can find 'phonegap configuartion' and select the radio button 'enter the path to installed phonegap'
and select the path where the phonegap is placed and after then try to place you code and execute in the mobile/emulator
Thanks for your answer Maneti but it didn't really help me out.
In the end I did it like Roman Nurik and it worked well. I'm not 100% sure if this solution works with the phonegap api but I don't need the api since I develope phonegap apps for ios and android (they support w3c geolocation standard, just like most of the browsers -> http://caniuse.com/geolocation)
I've try to search and found this link, but Ctrl+Alt+Shift+D doesn't work.
I also use find Action Ctrl+Shift+A to find action about diagram and uml but found nothing.
I also search for the uml plugin,
but most of them didn't work with new version of intelliJ (I didn't try it I just read the comment).
I found a free plugin that can generate class diagrams with android studio.
It's called SimpleUML.
Update Android Studio 2.2+:
To install the plugin, follow steps in this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/36823007/1245894
Older version of Android Studio
On Mac: go to Android Studio -> Preferences -> Plugins
On Windows: go to Android Studio -> File -> Settings -> Plugins
Click on Browse repositories... and search for SimpleUMLCE
(CE means Community Edition, this is what android studio is based on).
Install it, restart, then you can do a right click on the folder containing the classes you want to visualize, and select Add to simpleUML Diagram.
That's it; you have you fancy class diagram generated from your code!
For those who want to use simpleUML in Android Studio and having issues in running SimpleUML.
First download simpleUML jar from here https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/4946-simpleumlce
Now follow the below steps.
Step 1:
Click on File and go to Settings (File → Settings)
Step 2
Select Plugins from Left Panel and click Install plugin from disk
Step 3:
Locate the SimpleUML jar file and select it.
Step 4:
Now Restart Android Studio (File → Invalidate Caches/Restart → Just Restart)
Step 5:
After you restart Right Click the Package name and Select New Diagram or Add to simpleUML Diagram → New Diagram.
Step 6:
Set a file name and create UML file. I created with name NewDiagram
Step 7:
Now Right Click the Package name and Select the file you created. In my case it was NewDiagram
Step 8:
All files are stacked on top of one another. You can just drag and drop them and set a hierarchy.
Like this below, you can drag these classes
I have managed to to do it in a way. Perform all the steps as referenced by Michal Rowicki above.
Open Visual Paradigm software.
Create a new Project
There would be an option on the Tools bar above that states Code
and select Instant Reverse... from the drop down menu with Java
language(or other)
Select your application folder where your project is located and
add it to the project(i have selected the complete folder
application)
The application should now appear on the left pane in Class
Repository
Then all you do is right click the project that you have added and
select Reverse to new class diagram
Select either you wish to have the packages included in the class
diagram or just the class diagram of the project
Then it should appear on your screen and customize it as you wish
However i do not know if the plugin in Android Studio was necessary nevertheless it has worked in a way for me.
type Ctrl+Alt+S (or go to Preferences)
go to the Plugins tab, press "Browse repositories" button
search: Visual Paradigm SDE for IntellIJ (Community edition) Modelling Case Tool
install it.
You need to install proper software. Now it should works well.
I guess that UML Class Diagram is only available on Ultimate Edition.
To show UML diagram click right mouse button on specific class -> Diagrams -> Show diagram...
Or you can in editor click Ctrl+Alt+Shift+U.
You could append new classes to diagram by drag and drop. On the top of window you could choose more options. To save UML you should just click on save icon.
There is Code Iris which you can install by going to File -> Settings -> Plugins -> Browse Repositories, then find and choose Code Iris.
Restart then you will have a new Code Iris tab.
Update 24.3.2016
I have found this guide from VP https://knowhow.visual-paradigm.com/technical-support/running-vp-in-android-studio/ created on September 8, 2015.
Good to know - it is possible to integrate VP into Android studio (in my case 1.5.1) now. Do not forget to backup your Android Studio settings (you can find them in Users%userName/.AndroidStudioX.X on Windows) ahead of installation.
I was trying to make it work, but created vp project did not contain any diagrams. Maybe someone else will have more luck.
I was using this manual http://www.visual-paradigm.com/support/documents/vpuserguide/2381/2385/66578_creatingauml.html to make Visual Paradigm working in Android studio, but action in 2. did not invoke dialogue in 3. So I Have asked Visual Paradigm support for help and they replied that Android Studio integration is not supported right now.
Reply from Visual paradigm reply from Apr 17 2015:
Thank you for your inquiry and I'm very sorry that at the moment we
only support integrate with the standard IntelliJ IDEA, but
not integrate with the Android Studio. We may consider to support it in our future release, and I'll keep you post once there
any update on this topics. Feel free to contact me for any questions
and wish you have a good day!
This post was deleted, so I will try to make it more clear.
As such I am considering previous answers as misleading and not useful. Therefore I thing that it is important for others to know that, before they lose their time trying to make it working.
Solution:
Run Visual Paradigm
Do as below, pointing to Android Atudio
directory on step 4
Open Android Studio and right click on project
This Kotlin state machine library has PlantUML export feature, it is not integrated with Android Studio but it is easy to visualize state machine structure on PlantUML web site.

I'm developing with android studio 2+.
to create class diagrams I did the following:
- install "ObjectAid UML Explorer" as plugin for eclipse(in my case luna with android sdk but works with younger versions as well)
... go to eclipse marketplace and search for "ObjectAid UML Explorer".
it's further down in the search results.
after installation and restart of eclipse ...
open an empty android or what-ever-java-project in eclipse.
then right click on the empty eclipse project in the project explorer
-> select 'build path'
then I link my ANDROID STUDIO SRC PATH into my eclipse android project.
doesn't matter if there are errors.
again right click on the eclipse-android project and select: New
in the filter type 'class'
then you should see among others an option 'class diagram'
... select it and confgure it ... png stuff, visibility, etc.
drag/drop your ANDROID STUDIO project classes into the open diagram -> voila :)
hth
I open eclipse(luna, but that doesn't matter).
I got the "ObjectAid UML Explorer"
that installed I open an empty android project oin eclipse, right
You can use the simple program StarUML. The trial version is unlimited and can do almost anything.
Onced installed you can use it to generate great number of uml digrams just by pasting the source code. Class diagram is just one type of it. (It understands not only Java language but C#, C++ and other)
P.S. The program is great for drawing architectural diagrams before you start to code the program.
