Hybris Learning Note: New Extension

Hybris Commerce Suite Development is based on extension.

Extension can be a business logic, a type definition, a Web application, or an hybris Management Console (hMC) configuration.

The first step: Hybris provides a set of templates, with Ant to perform extgen tasks, with the relevant parameters to generate the corresponding Eclipse project;

The template includes: Yempty,ycockpit,ycommercewebservices,ybackoffice,yaddon. Participate in the Hybris WiKi specifically.

Step two: Execute the ant all command on the Hybris server, and then import the project you just built in eclipse.

Step three: View the list and status of Extention in operation at Hybris Administration Console http://localhost:9001/platform/extensions.
