mps-build-backends

Command-line utilities used e.g. by Gradle plugins to generate or check models.

This project contains the following subprojects:

• project-loader – a library for command-line utilities providing a function to load MPS with specified plugins and macros, and execute code in the context of a running MPS instance, optionally with a particular project open.
• execute - a command line tool to execute a piece of code from an MPS module with a particular project open.
• execute-generators – a command line tool to execute the MPS generator on given models.
• launcher - a Gradle plugin for configuring the Java toolchain and command line arguments for a particular version of MPS.
• modelcheck – a command line tool to check given models or modules for errors.
• remigrate - a command line tool to run re-runnable migrations on a project (or multiple projects).
• migrate - a command line tool to run pending migrations on a project (or multiple projects), headlessly.
• integration-tests – tests that exercise the command line tools on sample projects.

The subprojects are documented in their respective README.md files:

• execute
• execute-generators
• launcher
• modelcheck
• remigrate
• migrate
