Hybris new extension

extension templates

   yempty                          Skeleton for an extension with a core and web module

ycommercewebservices	Provides a working example how a REST API can be exposed dependent on the hybris commercefacades
ycockpit	Sample cockpit application
ybackoffice	Template to generate a backoffice extension to start developing widgets
yaddon	Base template for writing Accelerator AddOns.

1. Open the Ant view in Eclipse and invoke the platform's task extgen. This will ask you to
   1. Select yempty for the extension template
   2. Enter the name cuppytrail for the extension.
   3. Enter the package prefix de.hybris.platform.cuppytrail
2. The Ant script will now create a skeleton extension for you in YOURPATH/bin/custom/cuppytrail but this is not yet imported into Eclipse.

3. Append the new extension to config/localextensions.xml:

<extension name="cuppytrail" />

1. Stop the application server.
2. Run ant all
3. Start the application server
4. Import the generated extension into your Eclipse environment
   1. Right-click in package explorer and select Import
   2. Select General|Existing Projects into Workspace and browse to the new extension YOURPATH/bin/custom/cuppytrail
   3. Make sure that the Copy projects into workspace check box is not checked before clicking on the Finish button
   4. You should now see the extension in your Eclipse Package Explorer
5. Open the hybris administration console http://localhost:9001/platform/extensions in a web browser and log in as admin nimda. You will get an overview on the available extensions and, if the extension comes with a core extension module, an hmc extension module, a webmodule depicted by the webroot and a core + extension module. As you can see, cuppytrail contains a core module and a web module.

Because we do not need a web module for this basic extension, we will disable this in  cuppytrail/extensioninfo.xml

 <!-- 
      <webmodule jspcompile="false"
                    webroot="/cuppytrail"
                    />
      -->
