This is a tool for the automated creation of a Java library containing all classes, properties and enumerations of the Asset Administration Shell (AAS) Metamodel. The tool itself is completly written in Java and uses the shapes constraint language (SHACL) to specify annotations and cardinalities for the Java classes.
Before running the tool, a profile needs to be created. This profile contains information about where the ontology sources reside. In the pom.xml, add your own profile with a (local) path to your ontology. There are multiple profiles present already which can be used as reference.
Once the profile has been created, you can build the project using Maven by simply executing at the repository root:
mvn clean package -P <Profile Name>
The project contains several modules:
aasModule containing shapes translating RDF into Java classes matching specific requirements of projects regarding the Asset Administration Shell.commonModule containing shapes translating RDF into Java classes.utilModule containing some generic utility classes, such as custom annotations.generatorThis module loads all data required for the translation process from RDF ontologies to Java classes, including the shapes and the ontology.
We always look for contributions, bug reports, feature requests etc. Simply open an issue or - even better - directly propose a change through a pull request.
A detailed documentation how to use the tool and how to prepare the input and the environment is provided here.
