Export Data Dictionary of my database using MySQL Workbench CE?

Question

I have a database on server with around 60 tables and now I want to export Data Dictionary of the database (including table structures)..

I can do that on my local machine which has PHPMyAdmin, however, I am not able to find way to export it on server using Workbench.

Any one who can help?

You may install db_doc.lua, a Lua script plugin for MySQL Workbench that generates data dictionaries, similar to those generated by DBDoc on MySQL Workbench Enterprise.

Download it from: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BxXM2ftdUPGeNkM4OGpiYmFxdFk/edit?pli=1

[EDITED]

It seems that the LUA plugin support was discontinued. So I wrote a plugin in Python to generate data dictionaries. It is available at: https://github.com/rsn86/MWB-DBDocPy
