In reply to this post by sac sha
Sac,

    My suggestion for the best way to start with a new ecommerce website
based on OFBiz is to:

1) Create a separate new component in hot-deploy.
2)
Copy over the basic screens and templates from
specialpurpose/ecommerce.  Style them as you like.  Create new if
required.
3) Refer demo ecommerce data to setup your
store/catalog/categories/products in the same manner.
4) Include specialpurpose/ecommerce controller.xml in you hot-deploy
component's controller.xml and use OOTB business processes from
ecommerce and other components as much possible.

And lastly this link will certainly help you to setup your ecommerce store
and is a good guide to begin with:

Hi,

...and what would be your suggestion, create a new component for the
ecommerce website or reuse the existing ecommerce component?

Re: New ecommerce website based on OFBiz

sac sha
Hi

Thanks to all for such a quick suggestions.

I always prefer a new module. But I find ecommerce module a complex
module(as I am a newbee and this is a big module to understand) so I just
wanted to avoid any stupid errors while copy pasting.

I have already tried making a demo website and adding some actions to it
etc.

Now I want to add the ecommerce section so that I can upload my products and
also facilitate it with the payment facility through paypal or secpay.

The only doubt is that the existing ecommerce module is having a lot of
functionality which will not be an easy task to copy paste the functionality
as I dont know how the functionality work. So I was trying to edit some
pages in existing module.

I will surely try to implement your suggestions and keep posting.

Regards
Sac

Hi Sac, In case if you want to create a new component then following command would help you to setup directory structure under hot-deploy.
ant create-component

Re: New ecommerce website based on OFBiz

BJ Freeman
In reply to this post by sac sha
in relative effort this is about 100 times more time than an Ecommerce
site to understand. You should plan at least 500 hours to get familiar
with ofbiz and Ecommerce to use it correctly

I suggest you Get the Data model books to see how the data is done for
Ecommerce.
http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBADMIN/OFBiz+Related+Books

Next get familiar with a productstore entity and corresponding pages.
then look at the demo data.

The Ecommerce component depends on other components.
You might also look at the clone Ecommerce in the same component.

It is suggested that you use the Ecommerce component and just modify it
so just copy the complete component to the hot deploy

You can hide and re-arrange the Ecommerce page components using CSS.

Wow! You could do all that... or...

... just read through the Business and Technical Production Setup Guides, and follow the instructions... then you're good to go (aside from any customizations you need and/or want).
