Astah Profile Plugin is a cutting-edge solution for adding profile editing capabilities directly within Astah. Streamline your workflow with enhanced customization and efficiency.
Astah Profile Plug-in is an innovative plugin to add an ability to edit profiles within Astah.
Currently Astah SysML and System Safety are not able to create custom profiles with tags, only internal profiles, however, it can import external profiles. In order to create a profile, you will need to use EclipseUML by following this page. However, you will be able to create a profile without using EclipseUML by installing this Plug-in.
Once the plug-in is successfully installed, the [UML Profiles] tab will be available in the top-left pane.
First open the [UML Profiles] tab located in the top-left pane. If this is your first time accessing this tab, a new profile setup will be initiated automatically. Begin by clicking the [Template https://www.example.com], and then double-click on the Value column to enter the profile name and URI. If this isn’t your first time using this pane, or if an existing profile is displayed, simply click the [New] button to start creating a new profile.
To open an existing profile, click on the [Open] button. Then, select the profile you wish to edit to load it into the editing pane.
1. Right-click on the Profile and select [Add Stereotype] from the context menu.
2. A dialog box will appear prompting you to enter the name of the stereotype. Type in the desired name and click [OK].
3. Once the stereotype is created, provide a name for it. Then, specify the metaclass for the stereotype (either ‘Class’ , ‘Property’ or ‘Operation’) using the dropdown menu provided.
1. Right-click on the Stereotype to which you want to add a property and select [Add Property] from the context menu.
2. A dialog box will open for you to enter the name of the Property. Type in the desired name and click [OK].
3. The new Property will be added to the Stereotype and displayed in a tree structure. Here, you can enter its name and select its type from the dropdown menu.
To save all the configurations you’ve made in a profile, simply click the [Save] button.
The profile will be saved as a UML Profile in a .uml file format.
This .uml file can then be distributed to your team members. They can apply the shared profile to their environment by selecting this distributed .uml file.
For loading profile into Astah SysML or Astah System Safety, please follow the steps on this guide.
