Hey guys,

in compass-core you can define default projects in a import.xml-file, but in custom-compass you can't. Is there a possibility to how i can do this?

The idea (currently) is to roll your own compass-database-initialization module. You can – at the very simplest – copy all the code from the "core" database-initialization module.

Unfortunately we don't yet have a canonical way to provide custom import.xml files where you "just" drop in the xml file in a special location. We were thinking about using a Service-Like mechanism, s.t. the core database initialisation module can look for other "initilaization providers" (similar to what ComponentRegistry does) to add model data on first startup, but that's not there yet. Which is also why there is no sample code in the archetype yet.
