How to add new modules

---

In Visual Studio, right click on the solution choose add new project. In the Add New Project dialog choose Razor Class Library. Naming the module as xxx.Module.yyy, the location should be in src\Modules.

After the project has created. Right click on project name choose Edit xxx.Module.yyy.csproj, then replace all entire the csproj with the content below

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Razor">

  <ItemGroup>
    <ProjectReference Include="..\..\SimplCommerce.Infrastructure\SimplCommerce.Infrastructure.csproj" />
    <ProjectReference Include="..\SimplCommerce.Module.Core\SimplCommerce.Module.Core.csproj" />
  </ItemGroup>

</Project>

Add a new file call "module.json" with the following structure

{
  "id": "xxx.Module.yyy",
  "Name": "Your module name",
  "isBundledWithHost": true,
  "version": "1.0.0"
}

If you set isBundledWithHost to true. Then you need to add project reference to your module in the SimplCommerce.WebHost.

Register your module in SimplCommerce.WebHost/modules.json so that it will be copied to the WebHost on build

Add a new file call ModuleInitializer.cs and implement IModuleInitializer interface. This file is the place where you will register services and middlewares of your module

Congratulations, your module is ready and you can start adding module code.

Adding Angular module

In the project folder/wwwroot/admin/ create your angular module. You can copy the existing module then modify it.

Create controllers, views, service for your module.

Add a new file call bundleconfig.json and register your javascript, css files

Register your angular module by adding GlobalConfiguration.RegisterAngularModule("yourAngularModuleName"); to the ConfigureServices in ModuleInitializer
