Hello community,
I used to use this technique to replace whole components in Smart View.
Example:
Extending components with module or require was not possible so I had to create my own component and replace all OPENTEXT instances with my own. Like I do not like how VIEW1 = nodestable.view.js behaves in a method - so I create my own VIEW2 = custom.nodestable.view.js and all VIEW1 instances will be replaced with my own one.
Why ?
Well if I want to change behaviors of a certain method which is not configurable I had to replace everything.
How it used to work
Well, in my src/bundles/my-all.js bundle file I used the code like this and it worked absolutely fine. I have tested that aproach on 22.1 version for example.
In the code below I replace a functionality of commentslist view - probably to prevent user to be able to delete comments or to edit them…
…
require(["require", "css"], function (require, css) {
// Load the bundle-specific stylesheet
css.styleLoad(require, "my/bundles/my-all");
require.config({
map: {
"*": {
// remap paths below in all file in all bundles
"esoc/widgets/socialactions/commentslist.view": "my/controls/comments/ix.comment.view"}
}
})
How it does NOT work in 23.4
Not sure what was changed but exactly the same code seems to not work in version 23.4. I have copied the code exactly one by one - or I hope so, and seems that the remaping the paths does not work for me …
Summary - questions
Do you have same experience ?
How do you replace the whole OTEX components with your own ones?
