Hi,
First sorry if this has been asked. I searched the forum, without finding any entry. Here is the question:
jArchi is very powerful to extend Archi features. However, unless I'm missing something, it runs only from the Archi IDE. Is there a way to programmatically query and update the model - and possibly the views - from outside the Archi IDE? That is, API's exposed externally to the IDE?
If yes, do they also work for models shared on a Git server, using coArchi?
Thanks and regards.
Hi,
There's no way to work on a model created with Archi outside Archi. But you can run Archi in command line and run scripts on model. See https://github.com/archimatetool/archi/wiki/Archi-Command-Line-Interface

It seems here that I haven't been quite clear, sorry about it. My question was not so much to work on a model outside Archi *as a whole*, but only outside the IDE. That is, without the user interface. But still using the Archi "engine".

Awesome, thank you! That seems to answer the ask, at first sight, since it enables to interact with Archi in the background, outside of the UI.
