 Description   

Integration of YANG Parser and parsed model with EMF, XText and Eclipse
could provide us with creating better IDE support for YANG, refactoring
YANG models and additional code-generation and model-to-model translation
tools, which are provided by EMF ecosystem.

Reopening issue in order to investigate integration with other modeling tools

Tony Tkacik, I'm very interested in collaborating on this!

FTR: I would remain interested in contributing on this front. FYI I have (significant) prior experience with Xtext, and am actually an EMF committer.. The question is if there really is anything to do here?

My current understanding is that the YANG Parser is already very mature, and that the yangide project, for what it's worth, is "good enough". Therefore I'm assuming that there is relatively little appetite to restart on an EMF/Xtext basis for YANG (and would have to agree with the assessment).

Any (unlikely..) work in this space should look at Typefox.io's Xtext-based YANG editor:

YANG/Idea support is being handled by https://github.com/PANTHEONtech/YANGinator/
There are Eclipse integrations as well.
XText as such is quite in trouble: https://github.com/eclipse/xtext/issues/1721
Let's not pursue this here.
