Aras Dynamic Visualization Installation

The following steps outline the process of installing the Aras Dynamic Visualization:

1. In the unzipped Aras 3D Visualization CD Image on the local machine, go to the \Packages\DPN\ folder.
2. Copy the contents of the “Innovator” folder into the CodeTree\Innovator\folder of the Work.git repository.
3. Add a configuration transformation file for the \Innovator\Server\method-config.xml in the \TransformationsOfConfigFiles\Innovator\Server\ folder of the Work.git repository with the following content:

<MethodConfig xmlns:xdt="http://schemas.microsoft.com/XML-Document-Transform">

 <ReferencedAssemblies>

 <name id="Aras.DynamicModelViewer.Core” xdt:Transform="InsertIfMissing” xdt:Locator="Match(id)">$(binpath)/Aras.DynamicModelViewer.Core.dll</name>

 <name id="Aras.DynamicModelViewer.DataModel” xdt:Transform="InsertIfMissing” xdt:Locator="Match(id)">$(binpath)/Aras.DynamicModelViewer.DataModel.dll</name>

 <name id="Aras.DynamicModelViewer.QueryProcessor” xdt:Transform="InsertIfMissing” xdt:Locator="Match(id)">$(binpath)/Aras.DynamicModelViewer.QueryProcessor.dll</name>

 </ReferencedAssemblies>

</MethodConfig>

Note
The \Innovator\Server\method-config.xml is available from the Baselines Artifact feed of the SDE for reference when building configuration transformation files.
4. Copy the DynamicModelConstructor andDynamicModelConstructor_default folders from the Aras 3D Visualization CD Image\Packages\DPN\Imports\ folder into the AML-packages folder of the Work.git repository.
Note
Do not copy the imports.mf file. Doing so will result in overwriting the existing imports.mf file of the Work.git repository.
5. Open the dynamic_model_constructor_imports.mf file.
6. Copy the following <package> elements:

<imports>

 <package name="dynamic_model_constructor” path="DynamicModelConstructor">

 <dependson name="com.aras.innovator.ssvc” />

 <dependson name="hoops_converter” />

 </package>

</imports>

7. Paste the <package> elements into the imports.mf file of the Work.git repository.
8. Open the file dynamic_viewer_imports.mf from the folder Aras 3D Visualization CD Image\Packages\DPN\Imports
9. Copy the following <package> element:

<imports>

 <package name="dynamic_model_constructor_default” path=".\DynamicModelConstructor_default\Dynamic">

 <dependson name="dynamic_model_constructor” />

 </package>

</imports>

10. Paste the <package> elements into the imports.mf file of the Work.git repository, after the previously pasted element:

<imports>

 <package name="dynamic_model_constructor” path="DynamicModelConstructor">

 <dependson name="com.aras.innovator.ssvc” />

 <dependson name="hoops_converter” />

 </package>

<package name="dynamic_model_constructor_default” path=".\DynamicModelConstructor_default\Dynamic">

 <dependson name="dynamic_model_constructor” />

 </package>

</imports>

11. Stage and review the changes to ensure that no customizations are overwritten.
12. Commit the changes.
13. Run the “continuous-integration” pipeline.
14. Run the “deploy-innovator” pipeline to complete the installation.
