The Site Repository has three item types by default:
siteTemplate
– Represents a site category. Stores the name and description of the site category, and the ID of theitemMapping
item in the View Mapping Repository that contains the view mappings for the site category.siteGroup
– Represents a site group. Stores the name of the site group and references to the sites and shareable types (see below) that make up the group.siteConfiguration
– Stores the values of the site properties for an individual site. The available properties of this item type vary depending on the modules included in the application.
The default repository definition includes a number of properties for the siteConfiguration
item type. The core (platform) properties include general properties for specifying a site name and description, the site category, URLs for accessing the site, etc. Other modules add properties through XML combination. For example, Oracle ATG Web Commerce adds these properties:
defaultListPriceList
defaultSalePriceList
defaultCatalog
Other applications may add other properties or item types.
You can add properties to the siteConfiguration
item type that are specific to your environment. For example, Oracle ATG Web Commerce Reference Store adds a number of Commerce Reference Store-specific properties, such as newProductThresholdDays
for specifying the number of days after being added that a product is considered new.
