Generating ORM code and/or database

Generation of ORM code and database can be done through the command line interface. To do this:

  1. Browse the scripts folder under the Visual Paradigm installation directory. For Mac users, you can find the scripts folder in the Visual Paradigm package by right clicking on it and then selecting Show Package Contents. Then look in Contents\Resources\app\scripts for the scripts folder.
  2. Copy the script file GenerateORM and paste to the bin folder of Visual Paradigm installation directory.
  3. Start the command prompt.
  4. Navigate to the bin folder of Visual Paradigm installation directory.
  5. Execute the script by supplying the required parameters. For example:
    GenerateORM -project C:\Demo\Demo.vpp -out C:\Demo\Output -code -ddl

    Below is a description of parameters:
    Parameter Description Example
    -project Project path
    C:\Demo\Demo.vpp
    -out Folder for storing the generated files including the source code, required libraries and mapping XML
    C:\Demo\Output
    -db [optional] The type of database management system of the target database. When specifying this option, please enter the number of the corresponding database listed below.
      1: MySQL
      2: MySQL 5.0.5
      3: MariaDB
      4: MS SQL Server

      21: Cache
      22: SQLite
      23: H2
      24: Redshift

    -code [optional]
    Include to generate code.
    -code
    -ddl [optional] Include to export DDL
    -ddl
    -exportdb [optional] Include to export database -exportdb
    -dbmode [optional] The action that you want to execute upon your database. Here is a list of possible actions:
    - Create
    - Update
    - DropAndCreate
    - Drop
