[Feature] Generate UML from UA Model

[maljac]

Hello,

it would be great if we could generate some UML class diagramm from a UA model.

If you read a companion spec, you might have seen some UML diagramms that visualize the UA model. I think that these diagramms are a good way to get a fast understanding of the given model. Thus, if you have to write some documentation of your model, you would have a "single source of truth". One might even create some special extensions for the opcua-modeler nodes in order to document the model / type / ... nodes and create some sort of auto-documentation from the UA model.

Since I am not familiar if there is some sort of XML specification for UML diagramms, I can not make an suggestion on technical details here.

Hei,Sounds like an interesting idea, but maybe we should generate that kind of things from the python node structure, that means in python-opcua, then just add a button in opcua-modeler. @destogl that might be a good subject for a student?

Yes! I will think about it. As I said it will be started first in a month or so
