New Typescript code module for Reverse Engineering

[DP0D7NI]

Hello everyone,

I am pretty new when it comes to EA extensions, so please forgive if I ask a stupid question.
Basically, I want to create UML entities (namely classes and it's attributes, methods and relationships) from Typescript source folder. In my imagination this would work exactly as I do with C#: I right-click on a folder, select 'Code Engineering' -> 'Import Source Directory' and select 'Typescript' as language which is currently not in the list of available languages.

My questions are:

• Is it possible to extend EA to add a new language to that list?
• Does anyone know of a project that tries to do exactly that?
• Is there somewhere a documentation how to do that?

I know that I have to provide the Typescript grammar to EA. But I can't figure out the correct way of integration into the reverse engineering process (I hope I do not have to create the UML object myself).

Thanks for every comment!

Hi

I haven't done this myself, but I think the place to start is here

Make sure you read everything in great detail. Sometimes important clues are somewhat hidden in plain sight.
