The command plantuml -config ${config-cfg} ${diagram-puml} is used to run the PlantUML tool with specific configurations and diagram files.

Here is what each part of the command means:

• plantuml: This is the command to run the PlantUML tool. Assuming it is installed and available in the system's PATH, executing this command will start the PlantUML tool.

• -config ${config-cfg}: This option specifies a configuration file to be used by the PlantUML tool. ${config-cfg} is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual configuration file name (including the file extension, commonly .cfg). The configuration file contains various settings that can be used to customize the behavior of PlantUML, such as output formats, font settings, etc.

• ${diagram-puml}: This is another placeholder representing the diagram file to be processed by PlantUML. This should be replaced with the actual name (and path if necessary) of the diagram file to be rendered. The diagram file should typically have the .puml extension and written using the PlantUML syntax. PlantUML will read this file and generate a diagram based on its content.

In summary, the command plantuml -config ${config-cfg} ${diagram-puml} runs the PlantUML tool using the specified configuration file and processes the provided diagram file(s) to generate the corresponding diagrams according to the PlantUML syntax and configuration settings.
