SAPUI5 Custom Launchpad Tile: How to use chip definition file with Component instead of View

[Former Member]

Hey folks,

I'll add a custom tile for my Fiori Launchpad. More precisely, I like to use a component instead of a view in my Chip Definition File. The reason why is getting the option for eg. load my own I18n or CSS files.

The Chip definition is descriped here. On your Server you can find a description by using this URL: http://:/sap/public/bc/ui2/services/sap/ui2/srvc/chipdefinition.xsd

The chipdefinition.xsd from your own server provides the option loading a custom tile by Component and not by View. The specific tag can be found under: chip => implementation => sapui5 => viewName or componentName.

I would like to use "componentName" instead of "viewName" but I can't find a dokumentation for this specific usage. Does anybody know how to add your own Path/Namespace to access the component.js?

The usage by using "viewName" is descriped as follows: "The viewName comprises package path, the name of the view and the file extension, for example tests.sample.Myview.view.xml." But this syntax doesn't work for "componentName"

Thanks for your Help!!
