usm/gen-archimate

ArchiMate 3.1 generator — produces an Open Exchange XML model (XMI 2.1) from USM data for enterprise architecture tools.

Intent

Enterprise architecture teams use ArchiMate tools (Archi, BiZZdesign, Orbus iServer). The ArchiMate generator translates .usm services, features, and data into a standard Open Exchange XML model importable by these tools.

Flows

Generate ArchiMate model (gen-archimate)

Produce model.xml with ArchiMate elements and relationships

1. parse → all .usm files (system, services, features, data)
2. generate → XMI elements for ApplicationComponent, BusinessFunction, DataEntity
3. generate → XMI relationships (Serving, Realization, Access)
4. submit → write model.xml

Contracts

archimate-valid-xml

Generated XML must conform to the ArchiMate 3.1 Open Exchange format

Acceptance criteria:

• [ ] Valid XML with proper namespace declarations
• [ ] Elements organized by ArchiMate layer folders

Then:

• assertion: model.xml is well-formed XML
• assertion: Contains ApplicationComponent elements for services
