How to export a package

Export a single package or package tree

Section titled “Export a single package or package tree”
  1. Right-click the package you want to export in the Explorer
  2. Select Export…
  3. Choose a location and filename
  4. The package and all its descendants (sub-packages, elements, relationships, diagrams, catalogs, property values) are written to a .farki file

The exported file is self-contained — it includes everything needed to recreate the package tree in another project.

What’s included

Section titled “What’s included”

The export captures:

  • The package and all nested sub-packages
  • All elements and relationships within the package tree
  • All diagrams and catalogs
  • All property values
  • Notation and constraint definitions (for M2 packages)
  • Package import declarations

Tips

Section titled “Tips”
  • Export an M2 metamodel package to share your custom modeling language with colleagues
  • Export an M1 model package to create a backup or transfer it to another project
  • The .farki format is human-readable JSON — you can inspect it in any text editor
  • .farki files can be version-controlled with Git, shared via email, or published to the Farketplace
