Enumerations

All enumeration types used throughout pyArchimate are defined here, including element/relationship types (ArchiType), I/O driver selectors (Readers, Writers), and UI-related enumerations (TextAlignment, TextPosition, AccessType).

Note

Deprecated enum value: Readers.aris (value 1) is deprecated and will be removed in a future version. Use Readers.archi (Archi native format) or Readers.archimate (OpenGroup Exchange format) instead.

Deprecated since version 1.4.0: Readers.aris — ARIS format reader support is deprecated. Migrate to Readers.archi or Readers.archimate.

Module contents

Enumerations for Archimate model and visualization.

This module contains all enumeration types used throughout the pyArchimate library, including element types, relationship types, and UI-related enumerations.

No external pyArchimate imports - this is a Layer 1 base module.
