bachii1010 commented 7 years ago

Hi,

If we have two extensions made and if they make use of same object and has a link between these two extenions.

Then how is it possible in extensions 2.0.

Can you suggest us regarding this.

Thanks Varun Reddy

How do you mean?

you can create "dependent" extensions - don't know if you mean that?

ghost commented 7 years ago

Last time I checked you had to put the NAVx file of the dependency extensions in your packages folder and then it lets you code against it.

bvbeek commented 7 years ago

You can define the dependencies in the app.json file here:

If you install the main app, it will install the extensions that are defined here.

waldo1001 commented 7 years ago

yes indeed: change the app.json, put the navx in the packages folder, and off you go!

an example of what you would put in the "dependencies":

"dependencies": [ { "appId": "af3ad7a7-bd49-4897-be18-4ed63589323d", "name": "NameOfTheAppYouMakeADependencyOn", "publisher": “waldo", "version": "1.0.0.0" } ]
