Folder structure

Commerce Manager has a very specific folder structure. Understanding this structure helps you modify existing subsystems and create and integrate new ones.

Basic structure

The basic structure is as follows:

  • Apps. Root folder that contains all Commerce Manager Systems administration screens like Catalog System, Order System and so on.
    • [SystemName]. Folder name of the system, such as Catalog for the Catalog System; files related to that system are stored in there.
      • [SystemName].config. Application configuration file that defines all views for the system.
      • Config. Configuration folder.)
      • View. Folder with views; may contain any number of subfolders.
        • [ViewName].xml. Specific view description for any view.
      • Settings.config
      • Permissions.config. Defines permissions for module.

For example:

Apps
  Catalog
    Config (configuration folder)
    View
      Catalog-List.xml
      CatalogBatchUpdate-List.xml
      CatalogEntrySearch-List.xml
      Currencies-List.xml
      MetaClass-List.xml
      MetaFields-List.xml
      Node-List.xml
