Hi,

I am struggling to find out how to automatically create an .aird representation file in the wizard.
For example changing basicfamily.editor in such a way, that after you select the wizard in the standard folder 'Example EMF Model Creation Wizards', it will create the resource 'My.basicfamily' within the chosen parent directory and chosen model object. Additionally, now, it shall also create automatically the .aird representation and link it to the resource, and then, enabling viewpoint and create a new Person diagram.

Somehow the code should look similar to this:
// Create a resource set
//
ResourceSet resourceSet = new ResourceSetImpl();

// Get the URI of the model file.
//
URI fileURI = URI.createPlatformResourceURI(modelFile.getFullPath().toString(), true);

// Create a resource for this file.
//
Resource resource = resourceSet.createResource(fileURI);


Thanks in advance for any hints! :)

Greetings,
Viet

Hi,

So basically you want to programmatically create the representation of an existing model, right? This question has already been addressed in the forum:

You'll find below a code snippet showing how I achieved a similar behavior in a pet project. There may be better implementations but this one worked for me.

private static void createRepresentation(Activity model, IProject project, IProgressMonitor monitor) throws CoreException {
    SubMonitor subMonitor = SubMonitor.convert(monitor);
    subMonitor.setTaskName("Creating the diagram");
        
    // Create a new Sirius session to handle the representation
    Session session = ModelingProject.asModelingProject(project).get().getSession();
        
    // Allow to create a representation for the activity thereafter
    session.getTransactionalEditingDomain().getCommandStack()
           .execute(new RecordingCommand(session.getTransactionalEditingDomain()) {
               @Override
               protected void doExecute() {
                   SubMonitor commandMonitor = SubMonitor.convert(subMonitor);
                   session.addSemanticResource(model.eResource().getURI(), commandMonitor);
               }
           });
        
    // Add the 'workflow' viewpoint to the representation
    Viewpoint workflowViewpoint = workflowViewpoint();
        
    ChangeViewpointSelectionCommand cc = new ChangeViewpointSelectionCommand(session, new ViewpointSelectionCallback(), new HashSet<>(asList(workflowViewpoint)), Collections.emptySet(), monitor);
    session.getTransactionalEditingDomain().getCommandStack().execute(cc);
        
    // Actually add the model's root element to the representation
    session.getTransactionalEditingDomain().getCommandStack()
           .execute(new RecordingCommand(session.getTransactionalEditingDomain()) {
                @Override
                protected void doExecute() {
                    SubMonitor commandMonitor = SubMonitor.convert(subMonitor);
                    session.createView(workflowViewpoint, asList(model), true, commandMonitor);
                }
           });
}

public static Viewpoint workflowViewpoint() {
    return ViewpointRegistry
                .getInstance()
                .registerFromPlugin(PLUGIN_ID + "/description/workflow-editor.odesign")).stream()
                .filter(viewpoint -> WORKFLOW_NAME.equals(viewpoint.getName()))
                .findAny();
}
