ArchGenXML Description

Create working Python code without writing one single line of Python ArchGenXML is a code generator. that builds on architecture-centric, model-based and test-driven developement. Generates Python code from UML-Models (XMI-Format). ArchGenXML is optimized for the generation of code based on the Archetypes framework.ArchGenXML is is a commandline utility that generates fully functional Zope Products based on the Archetypes framework from UML models using XMI (.xmi, .zargo, .zuml) files. The most common use case is to generate a set of custom content types, possibly with a few tools, a CMFMember type and some workflows thrown in.In practice, you draw your UML diagrams in a tool like Poseidon or ObjectDomain which has the ability to generate XMI files. Once you are ready to test your product, you run ArchGenXML on the XMI file, which will generate the product directory. After generation, you will be able to easily install your product in Plone and have your new content tools, types, and workflows available.At present, round-trip support is not implemented: Custom code can't be converted back into XMI (and thus diagams). However, you can re-generate your product over existing code. Method bodies and certain "protected" code sections will be preserved. This means that you can evolve your product's public interfaces, its methods and its attributes in the UML model, without fear of losing your hand-written code.Why should you use ArchGenXML?· You want to save time· You are a lazy programmer· You don't like to reinvent the wheel· You dont like copying and pasting code and bugs· You make heavy use of references and interfaces· You have big projects with many different custom types· You want or need a well-documented interface to your product· You like structured model- and pattern-driven software development· You want to maintain your project in future without getting a headache What's New in This Release: · better GenericSetup support, but now depends on Plone 3.1 (if plone_target_version isnt set to 2.5). this includes metadata.xml support et al. · archetypes.schemaextender support · portlet generation support · image now uses AnnotationStorage by default. · ATBackRef support upgraded (also released Products.ATBackRef at pypi) · xmiparser is now a package on its own · made archgenxml play with buildout, recommended installation method. remove all zope import fixes. corrected dependecies in setup.py and included zope packages here. · use zope.documenttemplate instead of the own copy · support for ArgoUML 0.26.2 · tons of other cleanup and minor fixes
