Implementing custom layout or templates as plugins

You may want to implement custom layouts or templates as plugins and use them in the Mashup UI.

  1. Create a plugin with a cvplugin.properties file looking like 

    cloudview.version=V6R2016x.R2.80158
plugin.author=you
plugin.components.layouts=NAME_OF_YOUR_FOLDER
plugin.copyright=Dassault Systèmes
plugin.description=blabla
plugin.name=pouet
plugin.type=mashup
plugin.version=420.0.0-SNAPSHOT

    Note: For more information about CVPlugin packaging, see Packaging Custom Components as Plugins in the Exalead CloudView Programmer's Guide.

  2. In your folder, add layout.jsp file containing your custom layout.
  3. In Mashup Builder:
    1. Click the Edit page settings at the right of the screen icon at the right of the top bar.
    2. In General > Custom layout enter the name of the plugin containing your custom layout.
    3. Select the Preview to check your configuration changes.
    4. Click Apply.
