jArchi / Re: Are there any sample scripts on how to pull out the relationship elements

« Last post by Steve G on Today at 16:54:34 »

In the architecture view, we have arrows representing various relationships between building blocks. Serving, triggering, composition etc. I want the report to identify those relationships as they do when you hover your mouse pointer over it (BB1 serves BB2 or SBB1 triggers SBB2 etc). Id even be happy with just listing out the relationship altogether with the associated view using the view tags (or any other method).

Does that clarify it?

General Archi Discussion / Re: Linux 64-bit Installation - Where's the “Archi” program file?

Aha - solved!

I renamed the archive to .tar.gz and unpacked manually (using gunzip, tar) rather than using the GUI shortcut to extract the archive.

Where did you download Archi for Linux from? The "Archi" executable should be there. Try downloading and unpacking the file again.

General Archi Discussion / Linux 64-bit Installation - Where's the “Archi” program file?

« Last post by tnporter on Today at 10:23:31 »

Hi

I'm trying to install/run Archi 4.8.1 on ZorinOS (Ubuntu 18 derivative).  The instructions for the Linux 64-bit archive state:

To install, un-archive and run the “Archi” program file.

But, there's no "Archi" program or any executable in the unarchived files (or any of the subdirectories).

How are you supposed to run Archi on a Linux desktop?

Thanks

Hi Steve,

I'm not clear what you're trying to do with jArchi or how this relates to the report properties. What do you mean by "pull out the relationship elements"?

General Archi Discussion / How to have Archi running on Chromebook (ChromeOS)?

« Last post by xiaoqi on February 24, 2021, 21:36:19 PM »

Hello all,

I noticed one old topic had mentioned ChromeOS issue of running Archi, I'd like to have a try now on my Google Pixel Book.

I downloaded the latest Archi 4.8.1 linux version from our website to Chromebook, extracted to one Archi folder, when running using my normal user, I got below error:

~/Archi$ ./Archi
xkbcommon: ERROR: Key "<CAPS>" added to modifier map for multiple modifiers; Using Mod3, ignoring Lock

Then using sudo, can see the full error:

Archi:

-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=11

-jar /home/[usernmae]/Archi/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.6.0.v20200915-1508.jar

Does anyone faced the same issue?

Looks like this is due to JVM and eclipse, before I find a way to manually adding any eclipse components, would like to hear some opinion and recommendation from forum here first.

Thanks a lot

jArchi / Are there any sample scripts on how to pull out the relationship elements

« Last post by Steve G on February 24, 2021, 15:15:37 PM »

Has anyone created this? I have a really big requirement for this and as the current report template actually does somewhat fit the need, I do also need for engineers to see the relationships in the target architectures we are developing.

Is the report:View:Tag element not applicable to a relationship view element in my view to only drop that relationship into the report? It seems to be overridden by global properties if I set it to false in the model then true in the view.

Any plans to include this in the next release? Would be a feature many are requesting...as well as my peers in EA at my organization and also others.

Thanks in advance and great work so far.

Thanks!

Not to a sheet. It is only a path to a file.
