How To Create and Package a Module

Creating a Module

The first step in the development process is to create a new module. From the Application menu, select Application Dictionary || Module

we will create an example module, called Tuto Module

we will define the module using the following three tabs of the Application Dictionary || Module window:

• Dependency
• DB Prefix
• Data Package

Exporting a Module

Exporting a module creates a directory for your module under Openbravo ERP root directory and the appropriate XML files for inclusion in the finished module. Modules that are not flagged as being in development are not exported – remember that you must select the In Development checkbox when you define a new module, otherwise it will not be exported.

When the development of the module is finished (or to deliver intermediate results), open a command window/shell and navigate to the Openbravo ERP development project execute the ant export.database command

Openbravo ERP validates the database and module artifacts of a module when the module is exported and packaged.
