Is Structurizr affected by the log4j vulnerability?

structurizr.org - introduction and open source tooling | structurizr.com - free and paid tooling to render diagrams, documentation, and architecture decision records

Lite

Packaged as a Docker container, and designed for developers, this version of Structurizr provides a way to quickly view diagrams, documentation, and architecture decision records.

(free; no sign up required)

Cloud service

Our cloud service allows you to get started with Structurizr quickly, without needing to host and update software on your own servers.

(free and paid)

On-premises

We also have a version of Structurizr that can be run on your own infrastructure (local servers or cloud), providing the majority of the same features found in the cloud service.

Diagrams as code 2.0

Structurizr builds upon "diagrams as code", allowing you to create multiple diagrams from a single model, using a number of tools and programming languages. This Structurizr DSL example creates two diagrams, based upon a single set of elements and relationships. 

workspace {

    model {
        user = person "User"
        softwareSystem = softwareSystem "Software System" {
            webapp = container "Web Application" {
                user -> this "Uses"
            }
            container "Database" {
                webapp -> this "Reads from and writes to"
            }
        }
    }

    views {
        systemContext softwareSystem {
            include *
            autolayout lr
        }

        container softwareSystem {
            include *
            autolayout lr
        }

        theme default
    }

Authoring tools

In Structurizr, a "workspace" is the wrapper for your software architecture model, views and supplementary documentation. There are a number of tools for creating a workspace; including a text-based DSL and code-based client libraries.

Create content using text

The Structurizr DSL (as mentioned on the ThoughtWorks Tech Radar - Techniques - Diagrams as code) allows you to create multiple diagrams from a single DSL source file. The DSL is designed to be used in conjunction with the Structurizr CLI and/or Structurizr Lite. The DSL is the recommended authoring option for most teams.

Demo

Create content using code

Java, .NET, TypeScript, PHP, Python, and Go via the JSON web API. This authoring option is recommended for teams who want to use code to help build their software architecture model (e.g. component discovery via static analysis, parsing distributed log files, etc). See structurizr.org for the links to available libraries.

Designed for the C4 model

Structurizr is specifically designed to support the C4 model for visualising software architecture, natively supporting diagram navigation and zoom in/out. A diagram key/legend is automatically generated for each diagram too.
