Splitting an extension's items.xml file into separate files?

[Former Member]

Is there any way that I could split an extension's items.xml file into different files?

On forum found this: https://wiki.hybris.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=110073598 but there was no positive answer.

Is there any update from far 2011?

Thanks, Giuseppe

Hi,

Can you try to use xml import resource for including multiple xml inside main item.xml ?

 e.g.
 <import resource="xyz-item-customer.xml"/>
 <import resource=" xyz-item-product.xml"/>

Use this inside main item.xml xyz-item.xml I didn't try this for item.xml, but I used it for multiple configuration files.

in items.xsd there is no notion of a "import" tag; i tryed your suggestiong anyway in case hybris has wrong xsd but got this error:

[schemavalidate] xxx-items.xml:16:38: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'import'. One of '{atomictypes, collectiontypes, enumtypes, maptypes, relations, itemtypes}' is expect ed.

Probably you are confusing the "import" tag valid for spring configuration

Its not possible to do this, you can group related items up into typegroups though :

     <typegroup name="Product">

Theres an example in commerceservices-items.xml
