entities component and tenantcomponent

[Pierre Smits]

Hi all,

Can you please elaborate on how to use the entities 'Component' and
'TenantComponent'?

Regards,

Pierre

[hans_bakker]

These are the components belonging to a specific tenant only. When the
tenant data is loaded it will only load data from these components in
hot-deploy and not other components in hot-deploy.
So security of the other components is not loaded so other tenants will
not have access.

Regards,
Hans

Keeping it together for all developers in the community to read. I
accidentally replied Hans directly in stead of through the ML:

Thanks Hans,

If I understand you correctly,

   1. I have to register all components there are
   2. and that if I want some components to be available to tenants I need
   to map those selected components from that entity to tenantId's in entity
   TenantComponent?


What about field 'RootLocation' in entity Component? Do I have to set it
manually? Or is it done automatically? Is it the file location relative to
OFBiz?

Regards,

Pierre

only hot-deploy components.

if you only type in the domainname the system will redirect to the
'rootlocation'

Hans,

If you intend it to be for hot-deploy applications or components, how come
I see webtools as data in demo-trunk?

Webtools is a framework application and, according to your reasoning,
shouldn't be there. Am I correct?

See:

Webtools is a developer option, so you could not make it available to your
tenants.....That is an implementation choice....by default it i showing
because it shows the power of the framework...a database admin function for
any type of database....pgadmin, mysql-admin all not required anymore....

Hans, all,

My apologies, but telegramme-style communication is not my forté.

Re: webtools is a developer option.....

I can't agree on webtools being just a developers option. In a production
environment you wouldn't want developers to access anything part of that
setup, as it might disrupt operational business. It's more an admin tool.

Don't you agree?

Regards,

Pierre

By the way, this is really a user list discussion.  Generally if your question is along the lines of "How do I use..." or "What is the purpose of..." then it probably belongs on the user list.
