Resolved: Adding MX Record(s) in AWS

 Recently, I was migrating MX records from WIX to AWS. I was using GSuite and I was unable to do the same. Then after a little bit of research, I found this stackoverflow link , which helped me resolve the problem. Here is how you should be adding the records in AWS. Record Name: @ Record Type: MX Value: <Priority> <Route Traffic to> example: 10 aspx.alt1.google.com And if you have multiple records, simply add the records in the same text area in the new line and no commas. This will resolve your problem. :)

Using VSCode and plantUML together to create UML diagrams and process flow diagrams

 Creating UML diagrams like sequence diagrams, class diagrams, use case diagrams etc are a daily activity a developer does.

In this blog, I am going to share with you on "How to use Visual Studio Code (VSCode)" along with plantuml extension to create UML diagrams.

Here are the pre-requisites:

  1. Download and install VSCode.
  2. Download and install extension PlantUML.
  3. Create a folder say create_flow_diagrams and create a directory src
  4. Create another directory flow_diagrams_generated
  5. Create a directory .vscode and add settings.json with the following configuration:





{
    "plantuml.commandArgs": [],
    "plantuml.diagramsRoot": "src",
    "plantuml.exportOutDir": "flow_diagrams_generated"
}

You can 

Simply press command + shift + P and select export diagrams.



 Yay! you would get the diagrams exported as png or svg in the flow_diagrams_generated folder.
