Purpose

SUMA, the "STEP Unified Model-Based Standards Architecture", is a authoring and publication system developed for the management of EXPRESS schemas and its documentation.

This utility is used by the ISO 10303 collection to build the following artifacts:

  • the STEP Resource Library (SRL)

Install

$ gem install suma

Usage

General

# Defaults to `suma help`
$ suma
Commands:
  suma build METANORMA_SITE_MANIFEST  # Build collection specified in site manifest (`metanorma*.yml`)
  suma help [COMMAND]                 # Describe available commands or one specific command

Where:

METANORMA_SITE_MANIFEST

This is the path to the Metanorma site manifest, typically metanorma.yml.

Compilation

To compile SRL subset test collection
$ bundle exec suma build metanorma-test.yml
To build SRL collection
$ bundle exec suma build metanorma-srl.yml

Generating full schema listing files

We generate the full schema collection listing using the --no-compile option in the suma command.

The generated schemas-*.yaml file name is derived from the input file name with the word metanorma replaced with schemas.

$ bundle exec suma build --no-compile metanorma-srl.yml
# => generates schemas-srl.yml

All documents need to have a schemas.yaml in their document root that lists out which schemas the document includes.
