Administrative Components

The Discovery Framework contains a number of administrative components. Many administrative components are chiefly used by system administrators, but some can be modified by power users.

Accessing the administrative components
You access Discovery Framework administrative components from the Liferay Control Panel.
Attribute Settings
The Attribute Settings component allows the power user to create, edit, and delete attribute sets and change display names for any attribute in a selected data source.
Data Sources
The Data Sources component allows you to view configured data sources and test the connection to them. In addition, you can reload updated configuration based on edits you have made on disk.
Data Source Bindings
The Data Source Bindings component allows the power user to associate different configured data sources with selected components in a single operation, rather than on a per-component basis.
Framework Settings
The Framework Settings component provides access to state, security, and other settings.
Performance Metrics
The Performance Metrics component displays information about component and MDEX Engine query performance.
Sample Endeca Portlet
The Sample Endeca Portlet component provides developers with a template from which they can build their own custom components.
