Importing SysML elements from EAP file

medini_1066019734

Hello,

I am working on a script which takes SysML elemets from EAP files and inport them inside System/Function model. For that I use ea.js shared by Ansys.

EA structure:

 

Current Medini import structure:

What I am missing is how to move created elements inside containers? Variable "the_owner" can not be rewriten inside the script.

I am using for import of containers this function:

function importPackages(eaPackage, output) {
		eaPackage.containedPackages().toArray().forEach(function (p){
			//console.log(eaPackage.metaType + " / " + p.name);
			var mp = Factory.createElement(output, Metamodel.sysml.SysMLContainerPackage);
			mp.name = p.name;
			importPackages(p, mp);
		});
	}//End importPackages

 and for importing other elements from EAP file I am using:

Since I was not capable to use containedElements() as for above case (containedPackages()) I used findByType. In IF after defining proper element I wanted also to define creation location, for example to move Actor into FCA container.

function importElements(EAElement, output) {
		eaFinder.findByType("EAElement").toArray().forEach(function (p){
			//ImportPackage -> collect data for the_owner varable to define structure
			if (p.metaType == "Package"){
				var owner_target = p.name;	
			}//End if
			//ImportActors
			if (p.metaType == "Actor"){
				var cp = Factory.createElement(output, Metamodel.sysml.SysMLactor);
				cp.name = p.name;
				//cp.the_owner = owner_target;
			}//End if
			//ImportFunctions
			if (p.metaType == "Activity"){
				var cp1 = Factory.createElement(output, Metamodel.sysml.SysMLActivity);
				cp1.name = p.name;
			}//End if
			//ImportInterfaces
			if (p.metaType == "Interface"){
				var cp2 = Factory.createElement(output, Metamodel.sysml.SysMLPort);
				cp2.name = p.name;
			}//End if
			//ImportParts
			if (p.metaType == "Part"){
				var cp3 = Factory.createElement(output, Metamodel.sysml.SysMLPart, false);
				cp3.name = p.name;
			}//End if
			//ImportDecision
			if (p.metaType == "Decision"){
				var cp4 = Factory.createElement(output, Metamodel.sysml.SysMLActivity);
				cp4.typeCode = p.name;
			}//End if
			//ImportUseCAse
			if (p.metaType == "UseCase"){
				var cp5 = Factory.createElement(output, Metamodel.sysml.SysMLActivity);
				cp5.name = p.name;
				cp5.typeCode = "function";

			}//End if

		});//End eaFinder function
	}//End importElements

 

Thank in advance for ideas.

Hello Klemen,

first I just want to understand, why you are implementing the EA import with a script and not use the build-in EA Importer?

Second, there is a more dedicated JS library finderEx.js which in many cases makes the creation of elements easier. And finally, the create-functions have as first parameter the scope - that is pointing to the place where the element should be created. So create first the folder and use the folder as scope in the functions to create the elements.
