Create a PostgreSQL Repository

Creating a PostgreSQL database is fully documented in the product information provided with your PostgreSQL installer.

Having created your PostgreSQL database, use the SQL script provided by Sparx Systems to create the required table definitions for Enterprise Architect. You can obtain the scripts from the Sparx Systems website, on the:

  • Registered Corporate edition 'Resources' page (Registered users)
  • Corporate edition 'Resources' page (Trial users)

Third Party Tools

If you are unfamiliar with PostgreSQL and DBMS systems in general, you might want to consider a suitable front end tool. One such tool is pgAdminIII. It provides a convenient graphical user interface to enable creation of databases, execution of scripts and restores.

After creating a PostgreSQL data repository in Enterprise Architect, you must set up the PostgreSQL ODBC driver.

Notes

  • This feature is available in the Corporate, Business and Software Engineering, System Engineering and Ultimate editions
  • Ensure that the collation is set to the alphabet you use, such as Latin or Cyrillic
