Archimate Model Validator by script or external program

[steen.jensen]

Anyone done a Model Validator with Internal or external scripting??

We are mostly using Archimate and have been testing Archi inbuilt Validation tool (Export OpenExchange Format and import in Archi) and  using the Archi Validating as a Poor mans validating tool.

Yes, I have a model validator add-in.

I'm still writing the documentation, but you can already download the installer: https://bellekens.com/product/bellekens-enterprise-architect-toolpack/
The tool works with SQL based rules that are read from files, so you can add your own rules by adding new rule files to the configured folder.

Most syntax-like rules can easily be validated with this tool, and since it's SQL based it is surprisingly fast, especially when compared to a scripting based validation.

EA also has a build-in validation tool, but to extend that I think you have to write an add-in.

If someone writes ArchiMate validation rules can they share them?
