Introduction

Launch Pads is a package of Value Components configurations on top of OOTB core 3DEXPERIENCE platform business processes for 3DSPACE & 3DDASHBOARD.

It is a set of reusable modules that can be used as templates for fast implementations, closing platform gaps and speed up sales cycle by selling solutions & instant value.

Market Goals

• Launch Pads are not supported products and should be seen and used as templates.

• Launch Pads are not sold and will be available alongside the Value Component products free of charge.

• Work together - Build a community of contributors to Value Apps and reuse best possible solution

Key Benefits

• 3DDashboard & 3DSpace apps - Configurable ready made applications for both 3DSpace & 3DDashboard to support legacy data & fill platform gaps

• Customer Projects - Templates for quick and low risk implementations. Spend more time on real use-cases and less on replication of OOTB

• Sales - Sell solutions & instant value, raise value of the Value components.

• VAR's - Need of good looking examples working with standard 3DEXPERIENCE to be able to sell TECHNIA Process Software (Classic/Helium)

• Training - Have up-to-date configurations for easier trainings delivery. Contains also new features of TVC/Helium

Contributors

What if we would work together and contribute to the one solution? We would get more value from it.

Feel free to share any configurations, gaps or recommend feature for LaunchPads which should help others.

• Projects & implementation teams

• Demo environment development

• R&D

• Customers & VARs

​ Distribution

XML & source code from bitbucket, no installer or binaries will be distributed.

3DDASHBOARD

Installation

Prerequisites

Each launchpad module (Classic, Helium) has as prerequisite that appropriate TECHNIA product (TVC) is installed. Please note that latest build of Launch Pads are meant to be used with latest builds of appropriate TECHNIA product.

Launch Pads Deployment

1. Download war file from products.technia.com or from provided link

   1. LaunchPads war file (jar included) contains all configurations for Classic & Helium modules

2. Unpack war file and copy its contents to appropriate sub-folders in deployed webapps.

Add UI commands to 3DSpace app

1. All configuration can be added by installation script file

   • InstallSchema.tcl - install all commands to your schema

   • UninstallSchema.tcl - uninstall all commands from your schema

2. Automatically using gradle tasks:

   • installLaunchpadSchema

   • uninstallLaunchpadSchema

3. Manually by adding selected command to schema using MQL. Commands are listed in every LaunchPad module.

   • Example:

   • add command "LP-TVCHomepage" label "TVC Homepage (LP)" href "${ROOT_DIR}/tvc-action/menuBasedTabPage/foo.jsp?menu=tvc:menu:launchpad:common/TVCTabs.xml" setting "Target Location" "content"; modify menu 'My Enovia' add command "LP-TVCHomepage"; mod command LP-TVC-Homepage add setting "Registered Suite" Components;
