Extensions
Extensions are plugins to eZ publish, providing additional custom functionality. Various extensions are available for eZ publish. All of them require the same basic steps for an installation. This chapter will show how to perform the following:
- Extract the compressed archive containing the extension
- Activate the extension
Some extensions might require further action to make them fully functional, e.g. creating new database tables, adding certain content classes to eZ publish, etc. Such additional measures are explained in the documentation for each extension.
As outlined before, this section deals with the basic steps only. For demonstration purposes, the installation will be examplified by an imaginery extension called "ezfoo".
In this section
- Extracting the files Each extension is distributed as a compressed archive. The name of the archive file includes the name of the extension and its release version. Furthermore, the compression type is indicated by the file ending, either "tgz", "tar.gz", "bz2", or "zip". For example:
