  2. Customization with maven war/overlay • Provide configuration for institutional customization • Extend • Override • Use Maven overlay • Maven • What is it?: build, dependency, project management tool • Good : Dependency Management, many plugins, works with Eclipse • Bad : Poor documentation, rigid, high learning curve, not all plugins well tested. • Maven/war plugin/Overlay • shares common resources across multiple web applications. • Merges between an original war and other code/files that you develop. • KC uses maven • Confluence page Link : https://wiki.kuali.org/x/AoApDw

  3. Use Case : Services, struts actions, and forms • Spring : Bean customization, mostly services. • CustomSpringBeans.xml : • overrides kc spring beans • adds new beans. • This file name is hard coded in KraServiceLocator.java. • Struts-config : action and form classes. • struts-custom-config.xml : • overrides kc's struts configuration • adds new struts configuration. • This file is defined in web.xml. <param-value>/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml, /WEB-INF/struts-custom-config.xml</param-value>

  4. Use Case : OJB, Configuration, Web Content • OJB repository : new classes. • repository-custom.xml : • override kc's OJB descriptors • add new class descriptors. • defined in CustomSpringBeans.xml. <bean id="customModuleConfiguration-parentBean" class="org.kuali.rice.kns.bo.ModuleConfiguration" abstract="true"> <property name="initializeDataDictionary" value="true" /> <property name="databaseRepositoryFilePaths"> <list> <value>org/kuali/kra/custom/repository-custom.xml</value> </list> </property> • Configuration extension. • kc-config-custom.xml • add institution specific configuration. This file name is set in kc-config.xml. <param name="config.location">classpath:META-INF/kc-config-custom.xml</param> • Web content : jsp/tag/scripts/images are automatically overlayed by maven/overlay.

  5. Use Case : Data Dicitonary • DD : • modify bo properties. • Rule class • Authorization class • Defined in CustomSpringBeans.xml. <bean id="customModuleConfiguration-parentBean" class="org.kuali.rice.kns.bo.ModuleConfiguration" abstract="true"> <property name="dataDictionaryPackages"> <list> <value>org/kuali/kra/custom/datadictionary</value> </list> </property> </bean>

  6. Steps to create KC_custom project • check out from svn Or Create kc_custom from scratch • https://test.kuali.org/svn/kc_custom • Apply patch to kc_project R2. • Customization configurations files not included in R2 • install kc_project to local maven repository • mvn -Dmaven.test.skip=true install • do customization in kc_custom • create war file for kc_custom with the overlay of kc_project

  7. Issues and work around • Eclipse • Jetty Debug configuration 8080 "/kc-dev" "/target/kc_custom-1.0-SNAPSHOT" default : 8080 "/kc-dev" "/web/src/main/webapp“ • Unit test • loading classes issue : classes in multiple jar files and folders • Delete 'lib' and 'classes' folders in /%PROJECT_DIRECTORY%/kc_custom/target/kc_custom-1.0-SNAPSHOT/WEB-INF. • Relative Web root : • kc-test-config-custom.xml : It contains the custom web root. <config> <param name="custom.webroot">/target/kc_custom-1.0-SNAPSHOT</param> </config> • POM file inheritance • option 1 : copy from Kc and modify. • option 2 : • create pom_custom.xml in kc_project, which is a copy from pom.xml, and change 'packaging' to 'pom'. • add 'parent' element to kc_custom's pom.xml. <parent> <groupId>org.kuali.kra</groupId> <artifactId>kc_project</artifactId> <version>2.0</version> <relativePath>../kc_project/pom_custom.xml</relativePath> </parent>
