Installation

The Open Source UML tool Papyrus is a plug-in for the Open Source integrated development environment (IDE) Eclipse. GenDoc is the associated tool that allows you to output a model in Papyrus into a word document. The artifacts in the output (diagrams, classes, datatypes, etc.) can be copy/pasted directly into a model project's wiki page.

Applied tool versions:

  • Eclipse: version 4.7.2 "Oxygen"
  • Papyrus: version 3.3.0
  • GenDoc: version 0.6.0

Eclipse

  • Eclipse “Oxygen” Modeling Tools package version 4.7.2 can be downloaded from here:
    https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-modeling-tools/oxygen2
  • Select the download link that is appropriate for the machine on which you will be making the install, i.e. "Windows 64-bit"
  • This results in the download of a zip file.
  • Note that Eclipse Oxygen requires a 1.8 compatible JVM
  • Extract the contents of the zip file to wherever you would like to install Eclipse. On a PC, "Program Files" is always a good option.
  • The content of the extracted files should look something like this:

  • To launch eclipse, double-click on the "eclipse.exe" file
  • When Eclipse starts coming up, it will prompt you for a "Workspace", providing a default that you can override. 
  • This is where the Eclipse projects, with associated models, will be stored. 
  • When Eclipse fully comes up, you can close the Welcome tab
  • To verify you have the correct installation of the product, go to "Help" → "About Eclipse" 
  • You should see something that looks like this: 

  • You have now successfully installed Eclipse

Papyrus

  • Papyrus version 3.3.0 can be downloaded from here:
    https://www.eclipse.org/papyrus/
  • Scroll down on the right side of the page and select: "Papyrus 3.3.0 Oxygen" Posted March 20th, 2018 and select "Download Page"
  • This takes you to "Papyrus Update Sites". Scroll down and select the "Papyrus Oxygen (3.X.0) Release Update Site
  • Copy the URL of the update site to which it takes you. Should be something like: http://download.eclipse.org/modeling/mdt/papyrus/updates/releases/oxygen/
  • Now you go back into Eclipse and select "Help"→ "Install new software"
  • An "Available Software" screen comes up. Paste  your URL into the "Work with:" box and hit enter
  • There should be multiple "Papyrus" related packages available to install. Select only the box: "Papyrus" and make sure the others are not selected.
  • Then click on "Next" to install the product. The installation will check for dependencies and requirement, and next prompt you to "Accept" the license agreement
  • Once accepted, you can select "Finish" and the installation process continues.
  • When the installation is finished, restart Eclipse to begin to use Papyrus.
  • Go to "Window"→ "Perspective"→"Open Perspective"→ "Other" and select Papyrus.
  • You will now be in the Papyrus Perspective where you can begin to use Papyrus.

GenDoc

The Gendoc plugin is used in conjunction with a document template. The template contains instructions that enable generation of a Microsoft Word document. The document can include extracts from the model such as diagrams, class definitions, attribute definitions along with their stereotypes etc as well as figures and text directly entered into the template. 

  • In Eclipse, go to "Help" → "Install new software"
  • Click "Add" and enter the GenDoc site: http://download.eclipse.org/gendoc/updates/releases/0.6.0/
  • An "Add Repository" screen will come up prompting you for a "Name" for your site. Give it the name "Gendoc"
  • In your "Available Software" page, you can select this site from the scroll box in the "Work with" box and hit enter.
  • The "gendoc" package should show. Select this package and hit "Next".
  • Follow the instructions to complete the installation.

Using the ONAP Model in Gerrit

Downloading the Model

Setup of RSA Keys

can't remember how we did this!

Cloning the Model

The ONAP model currently resides in Gerrit in the modeling/modelspec repository. In order to download the model to your machine, to either visualize it or make updates, you will need to clone it in Eclipse/Git. Steps to do this:

  • Bring up your Eclipse/Papyrus that you installed in the previous steps.
  • Go to the Git Perspective by selecting "Window->Perspective→Open Perspective→ Other" on the top of your screen and then select "Git"
  • Your screen should have the following perspective 
  • On the bottom you see "cloud" with a repository and a green arrow. That is your "clone repository" function in Git. Select that.
  • You will need to fill-in the screen that appears with a URI. The format of that URI is: ssh://{LF Userid}@gerrit.onap.org:29418/modeling/modelspec. Based upon what you have just entered, the rest of the screen gets populated with the correct info. It should look something like this:
  •  Once the screen is filled in, select "Next"
  • It will then prompt you for the branches to select. Choose: 2.0.0-ONAP, R3workingbranch, and Master.
  • You will then be prompted to select a local directory on your machine into which the model should be loaded. It can be any location you want, and not necessarily the workspace you are using for Eclipse/Papyrus projects.  As an "initial branch", select "R3workingbranch". Select the option "Import all existing Eclipse projects...".  Your screen at this point should look like this:

       

  • Select "finish". The cloning process should complete, and the repository should be created on your local machine. If you encounter errors, contact the ONAP model administrator to get help.
  • The view below shows an example of the newly created repository which has been opened up. You should have the R3workingbranch only showing up as your "Local".

Viewing the Model in Papyrus

Once you have successfully cloned the ONAP model, you can now view it in Papyrus. Go to the Papyrus perspective by selecting  "Window->Perspective→Open Perspective→ Other" on the top of your screen and then select "Papyrus". This perspective should show a "Project Explorer" on the left side of the screen.

  • You should see your newly created Eclipse/Papyrus project in the "Project Explorer". It should look something like this

  • The text in light brown is telling you that your project is in the modelspec repository you just created, in the branch "R2workingbranch".
  • The model actually resides in the "papyrus" folder, so open that up and you should see this:

  • Here is a description of what you have in the ONAP Information Model
    • GenDoc  - This is where the GenDoc templates reside for creating an output of the model in Word
    • StyleSheets - These are CSS stylesheets to use when formatting the model
    • Common - The common submodel of the model (where artifacts used by multiple sub-models are stored)
    • Infrastructure -  The infrastructure submodel where the multi-cloud artifacts are stored
    • model - This is the "umbrella" ONAP model that contains all the submodels
    • Onap_Profile.profile - Contains ONAP specific stereotypes
    • OpenModel_Profile.profile- Contains IISOMI stereotypes
    • Party - The party submodel for party related artifacts
    • Resource - The resource submodel for resource related artifacts
    • Service - The service submodel for service related artifacts
    • Vnf - The Vnf submodel for Vnf specific artifacts
  • To see the entire model, double-click on "model". The model will open up in the model explorer.
