Adding Custom DataSources to Reify

DataSources placed in the project dataSources directory ([webroot]/shared/ds by default) will be detected by Reify whenever it is started, and appear in the DataSource listing in the lower right-hand corner automatically.

If you have created a custom subclass of DataSource (eg, as a base class for several DataSources that contact the same web service), you can use it with Reify by:

• creating an XML version of the DataSource using the XML tag <DataSource> and the constructor property set to the name of your custom DataSource subclass (as described ComponentXML under the heading Custom Components)
• modifying [webroot]/tools/visualBuilder/globalDependencies.xml to load the JavaScript code for your custom DataSource class. See examples in that file.
