Module skeleton: metadata, composer and structure

In order to create a working OXID eShop module, you have to create a certain file structure inside your module and use certain metadata files.

• metadata.php
  • Helpers
  • Version 1.0
  • Version 1.1
  • Version 1.2
  • Version 2.0
  • Compatibility between different metadata versions
• composer.json
  • Best practices module development with composer
  • Composer.json for an OXID eShop Module
• File and folder structure

Note

The file composer.json is only necessary if you want to use composer to install a module, add dependencies or autoload PHP files.
