I would like to know whether there any drawing tools available to map a given use case solution in terms of EIPs. There is a stencil available for MS Visio and a SVG alternative for OpenOffice. The shapes in the stencil is good but does not seem like the best graphics for a presentation. Any alternatives available for drawing EIPs? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Btw you could automate that. Check this:

Use camel:dot maven goal

Answer 2

diagrams.net has a set of EIP stencils built-in. I'm not sure if it addresses the issues in the question, but the tool is free. (I'm a developer on the project).

Answer 3

I've created an OmniGraffle EIP stencil years ago for the book Spring Integration in Action. I pushed it to Graffletopia, but I cannot find it there quickly. Let me know if you are interested in the OmniGraffle stencil and I'll search a bit more.

Answer 4

What is wrong with the stencils? Those are simply the shapes presented in the book Enterprise Integration Patterns. Looking at a presentation from the author of the book, I don't think the shapes look bad in presentation: http://www.eaipatterns.com/docs/jaoo_hohpeg_enterpriseintegrationpatterns.pdf.

I am not aware of any tools to draw EIP scenarios other than say Visio, Open Office Draw or similar tools. There are some IDEs to create routes (Fuse IDE and Talend Open Studio for instance), but these are really just to create runnable EIP implementations, not for presentation.

Answer 5

Late to the party, but Lucidchart (online cloud-based diagram tool) has an Enterprise Integration Pattern stencil, too.
