    Forward-Engineering

    The forward-engineering function is used to export models or parts of models.  It is also used to generate schema artifacts in the language of each specific physical target: DDLs for RDBMS, and schema scripts for other targets.  

     

    In a use case of starting a model from scratch, Hackolade Studio helps developers' productivity by providing a variety of forward-engineering options:

     

    • a JSON or YAML sample document
    • a JSON Schema or YAML Schema
    • an Excel file 
    • target-specific script

     

    The isActivated property exists for all objects (containers, entities, and attributes), and is ON by default.  If unchecked, it allows to comment (for targets that allow commenting in scripts) or to filter objects in forward-engineering.
