Methods, systems, and computer program products for suggesting application programming interfaces (APIs) based on feature and context analysis are provided herein. A computer-implemented method includes extracting at least one feature of an input function code based on application of one or more text analytics to one or more inputs pertaining to the input function code; deriving at least one item of context-related information from the input function code; generating a suggestion comprising one or more application programming interfaces, wherein said generating comprises comparing (i) the at least one feature of the input function code and (ii) the at least one item of context-related information to a database, and wherein the database comprises (a) feature data and (b) context-related information pertaining to multiple application programming interfaces; and outputting the suggestion to at least one user.

Suggesting application programming interfaces based on feature and context analysis

A system and an article of manufacture for semantic and contextual searching over a knowledge repository including creating a search query for each concept related to the target concept to form a search context, wherein the search query for each related concept comprises at least one word derived from a record of that concept previously authored in the project, running the search query on a search index of a knowledge repository to identify a record of the related concept for which the search query is created, and fetching the record of the target concept from the repository as a search result such that the fetched record of the target concept is linked in the knowledge repository to a record of the related concept returned as a result of running the search query on at least one record of the at least one related concept.

Semantic and contextual searching of knowledge repositories

A method for semantic and contextual searching over a knowledge repository. The method includes creating a search query for each concept related to the target concept to form a search context, wherein the search query for each related concept comprises at least one word derived from a record of that concept previously authored in the project, running the search query on a search index of a knowledge repository to identify a record of the related concept for which the search query is created, and fetching the record of the target concept from the repository as a search result such that the fetched record of the target concept is linked in the knowledge repository to a record of the related concept returned as a result of running the search query on at least one record of the at least one related concept.

Techniques for searching for a user interface (UI) are provided. The techniques include receiving a desired user interface as a query, determining meta-data for the desired user interface, wherein determining the meta-data for the desired user interface comprises converting the desired user interface query to a meta-data query, and using the meta-data query to search for the desired user interface, wherein searching for the desired user interface comprises querying meta-data of one or more existing user interfaces and selecting one or more similar user interfaces.

Searching existing user interfaces to enable design, development and provisioning of user interfaces

One or more document templates defining deployment procedures associated with deploying a packaged software application are obtained. One or more objects are created representing the one or more document templates and one or more elements of the one or more documents, and one or more links between the one or more objects are created. The one or more links represent one or more relationships between the created one or more objects. The one or more objects and the one or more links may be stored and/or output in a selected format.

Modeling and linking documents for packaged software application configuration

Techniques for facilitating use of a transformer are provided. The techniques include analyzing code of a transformer to compute one or more exception constraints and one or more output constraints, translating the one or more exception constraints and one or more output constraints to state them in terms of one or more input and output meta-model elements, wherein translating the one or more exception constraints and one or more output constraints comprises inferring one or more transformer rules in terms of vocabulary of a meta-model, wherein a transformer rule comprises one of a verification rule and a comprehension rule, and using the one or more inferred transformer rules to facilitate use of a transformer, wherein facilitating use of a transformer comprises supporting model verification and transform comprehension.

Facilitating use of model transformations

Harvesting assets for packaged application practices, in one aspect, may include obtaining one or more work products associated with deployment of packaged software applications, extracting content and style, enhancing content and style with models of work products, and storing assets in asset repository.
