pipeline status coverage report Latest Release VSCode Marketplace OpenVSX


SysIDE Community Edition (SysIDE CE) is a free and open source SysML v2 textual editing and analysis system, bringing rich SysML v2 language support to Visual Studio Code. SysIDE CE can also be integrated into other applications and automated workflows which need to interact with SysML v2 textual representations.

The main enabling components of SysIDE CE are a parser and a language server for SysML v2 and KerML 2024-05 release specifications.

SysIDE CE provides features such as:

  • Semantic highlighting
  • Autocompletion
  • Code navigation
  • Formatting
  • Real-time syntax and semantic validation
  • Reference search
  • Folding
  • Document symbols
  • Renaming
  • Documentation on hover

SysIDE CE is built and maintained by Sensmetry, a company focused on ensuring the safety and reliability of mission- & safety-critical automated systems.

SysIDE CE is an open source project with contributions from user and developer community highly encouraged and welcome. For further information about the open source license, see LICENSE. To contribute, please see the CONTRIBUTING.md document.

Editions

There are two editions of SysIDE:

  • SysIDE CE - free and open source version of SysIDE, enabling modern 'as code' modeling for everyone
  • SysIDE Pro - a licenced version of SysIDE, providing advanced features & performance for power-users

If you want to get in touch regarding any edition of SysIDE, reach out to Sensmetry at syside(at)sensmetry(dot)com

Quick start

In a browser (without local VSCode)

You can try out SysIDE without needing to instal it locally. To do so:

  1. Go to Visual Studio Code for the Web
  2. Open the Extensions tab on the right of the screen
  3. Search for and install SysIDE CE
  4. Open a folder or a .sysml file

This is a good way to get a taste for how SysIDE CE works. But if you plan on using it for a longer term or for larger models, we suggest installing it locally.

Running locally

  1. Install Visual Studio Code or VSCodium

  2. Open the Extensions tab on the right of the screen

  3. Search for and install SysIDE CE

  4. Open a SysML v2 (.sysml) file and the extension will activate.

  5. Link with the SysML v2 standard library:

    • Upon the first activation a pop-up will be displayed on the bottom righ tof your screen asking you to either locate an existing SysML v2 standard library or download it.
    Prompt

    • If you don't see the pop-up, download the library (sysml.library directory from SysML-v2-Release repository) and copy its path to extension settings:
    Settings

    • Alternatively, the pop-up may also be disabled globally or in the workspace and the extension will continue without standard library support (may result in faulty sysml validation).

Features

The extension provides basic features to support SysML v2 document editing:

  • Semantic and syntax checking identifies errors as they occur allowing to instantly correct mistakes and speed up workflow.
    Semantic and syntax checking

  • Semantic highlighting increases readability and allows to distinguish different parts of the code quickly.
    Semantic highlighting

  • Autocompletion speeds up the workflow by reducing typing errors and minimizing manual input.
    Autocompletion

  • Hovers instantly display documentation allowing to quickly understand an element.

  • Code navigation speeds up development by enabling quick access to element definitions.
    Navigation

  • Folding improves readability and eases navigation by organizing code into collapsible sections.
    Folding

  • Auto-formatting enhances code readability and maintainability by ensuring consistent structure for:

    • Comment bodies

  • Renaming saves time and reduces errors by renaming all elements with the same name with one click.
    Renaming

  • References enable efficient navigation and code updating by identifying all instances of an element.
    References

  • Document symbols provide rapid model overviews, enabling efficient comprehension and navigation.

Developer instructions

Building from source code

  • Install pnpm
  • Run pnpm install to install dependencies.
  • Run pnpm run grammar:generate to generate TypeScript code from the grammar definition.
  • Run pnpm run build to compile all TypeScript code.

Make changes

  • Run pnpm run install-hooks to install git hooks.
  • Run pnpm run watch to have the TypeScript compiler run automatically after every change of the source files.
  • Run pnpm run grammar:watch to have the Langium generator run automatically after every change of the grammar declaration.
  • You can relaunch the extension from the debug toolbar after making changes to the files listed above.
  • You can also reload (Ctrl+R or Cmd+R on Mac) the VS Code window with your extension to load your changes.
