How to install yForms in SAP Commerce, Step by Step process
yForm provides a user-friendly interface for data capture and allows businesses to define the structure of the form, specify validation rules, and define actions to be performed upon form submission. The framework simplifies the process of creating and managing forms within the Hybris Commerce platform, enabling businesses to effectively collect and utilize data.
To install yForms in SAP Hybris, you need to follow these general steps:
1. Obtain the yForms Extension:
- Check if the yForms extension is available as a separate extension from SAP Hybris or a third-party provider.
- Download the yForms extension or obtain it from a version control system if it is part of your project repository.
2. Include the yForms Extension in Your Project:
- Copy the yForms extension folder into the `hybris/bin/custom` directory of your SAP Hybris installation.
- Add the yForms extension to your project's `localextensions.xml` file located in the `hybris/config` directory.
- Include the yForms extension in the `extensioninfo.xml` file of your project's extension configuration.
3. Build and Deploy the Project:
- Navigate to the `hybris/bin/platform` directory using the command line.
- Run the `ant clean all` command to clean and build the project.
- Once the build process is complete, run the `./hybrisserver.sh` (or `.bat` for Windows) command to start the Hybris server.
4. Verify the Installation:
- Access the Hybris Administration Console (HAC) by opening a web browser and entering the URL `http://localhost:9001/hac`.
- Log in using your HAC credentials.
- Check if the yForms extension is listed in the Installed Extensions section of the HAC.
Please note that the installation process may vary depending on the specific version of SAP Hybris you are using and any customizations in your project.
