Getting started

Welcome to the kevoree-modeling-framework wiki!

The Kevoree Modeling Framework (KMF) is an alternate solution to the Eclipse Modeling Framework.

To get started with KMF, you just have to create a Maven project folder in which you will place the pom and your EcoreMM.

myProject
 |-metamodel
 | |-myMetaMode.ecore
 |-pom.xml

Then add this in your POM:

The plugin in the Build/Plugins section:

<plugin>    
 <groupId>org.kevoree.modeling</groupId>   
 <artifactId>org.kevoree.modeling.emf.scala.gencode.mavenplugin</artifactId>   
 <version>1.2.0</version>   
 <extensions>true</extensions>   
 <executions>   
  <execution>   
   <id>ModelGen</id>   
   <goals>   
    <goal>generate</goal>   
   </goals>
   <configuration>
    <!--Path to the ecore file-->
    <ecore>metamodel/mymodel.ecore</ecore>
    <!--Optional: if you want to add a package before the root package of your EcoreMM.
    Must be specified in dotted notation-->
    <!--
      <packagePrefix>org.myPrefix</packagePrefix>
    -->
    <!--Optional: Specifies the name of the RootContainer element of the MM-->      
    <!--
      <rootXmiContainerClassName>MyRootContainer</rootXmiContainerClassName>
    -->
    <!--Optional: set to true if you want to generate the model code only -->
    <modelOnly>false</modelOnly>
   </configuration>
  </execution>
 </executions>
</plugin>

Add then the Scala compiler plugin

<plugin>
 <groupId>org.scala-tools</groupId>
 <artifactId>maven-scala-plugin</artifactId>
 <version>2.15.2</version>
 <executions>
  <execution>
   <goals>
    <goal>compile</goal>
     <goal>testCompile</goal>
   </goals>
  </execution>
 </executions>
 <configuration>
  <jvmArgs>
   <jvmArg>-Xms64m</jvmArg>
   <jvmArg>-Xmx1024m</jvmArg>
  </jvmArgs>
 </configuration>
</plugin>

A little of Scala version property:

<properties>
 <scala.version>2.10.0-M2</scala.version>
</properties>

The plugin repository in the Plugin Repositories section

<pluginRepository>
 <id>plugin.kevoree-github</id>
 <url>http://maven.kevoree.org/release</url>
</pluginRepository>

And one dependency

<dependency>
 <groupId>org.scala-lang</groupId>
 <artifactId>scala-library</artifactId>
 <version>2.10.0-M2</version>
</dependency>

Then cd into your project folder and just mvn install.

You're done :-)
