Configuration

These instructions walk you through the process of cloning the repository and then updating the sample files with your specific requirements.

The following folders and files are included in the sample repository.

Root level

  • core-customize folder: The folder that contains all of the folders and files that support Commerce Cloud.

core-customize folder

  • manifest.json: The Commerce Cloud manifest.json file, which defines how your code will be built and deployed in the Public Cloud environments. The manifest is set up to leverage configuration reuse to better allow for consistency between local and cloud builds.
  • hybris folder: contains a sample custom folder for storing any custom extensions as well as the config folder for storing local and cloud properties, localextensions.xml and any local solr/tomcat configurations
  • other sample manifests: A collection of tested and verified manifest files that you can use as starting points for your Commerce Cloud environments.

Clone Repository

Clone the sample repository (instructions can be found here). The files are copied to your local machine.

Update the Custom Extensions

  1. If you don’t have custom extensions, you can delete the kiwi & tiger sample folders. If you wish to use these extensions you'll have to uncomment them in your hybris/config/localextensions.xml folder
  2. List any extensions you're using (custom and any from Commerce runtime) in the core-customize/hybris/config/localextensions.xml file
  3. If you have custom extensions with dependencies, list the source extension first, then the dependent extension. Extensions are built in the order in which they appear in your localextension.xml and manifest.json files

Update the Commerce Cloud manifest.json

  1. Open the manifest.json file inside the core-customize folder.
  2. Update the “version” with the version of SAP Commerce that you plan to use. Refer to the Supported Versions section of this readme for more information.
  3. Save the changes.

Prepare to Push the Sample Repository

In the sample repository, verify that you have the following files in the core-customize folder.

  • manifest.json: This is the manifest.json for Commerce Cloud.

Push the Commerce Cloud Configuration to Code Repository

Push all the contents from your local machine to the root level of your Commerce Cloud repository.

Final Steps - Validating an example Electronics Storefront and Javascript Storefront

Use the Cloud Portal to create a build and then deploy the build to an environment.

  1. After the build is deployed, you can find the 'Storefront' endpoint in the Environments page of the Cloud Portal listed under Public Endpoints.
  2. Click on the Storefront hyperlink to access the details page for endpoint.
  3. Either add an IP Filter Set for your IP address OR change the Base Rule from 'Deny All' to 'Allow All' in order to receive traffic to this example storefront.
  4. Save the changes.
  5. Click on the URL listed next to the Storefront public endpoint. You will receive a server error.
  6. In your browser's address, append the endpoint address with /?site=electronics and reload the page
  7. Verify that you see a basic electronics storefront.
