option to not load Sample Data during Initialization

[Former Member]

Hello,

Could any one help what are the steps I need to follow to not load the sample data (OOTB data) during initialization?

I want to load my own data and stop loading the sample data that comes with OOTB.

Any help appreciated.

Hi SasiReddy

Most of the sample data is in hybris\bin\ext-data folder. The extensions are apprelstore, electronicsstore and some others, best way is to remove these extensions from your localextensions file. Create you own extension customdata.

Place impex files customdata/resources/customdata/import folder. Basically replicate the folder structure of apparelstore extension. Once done, write your impexes and add your customdata extension in localextensions.xml file.

Run ant clean all and then initalize, you will see your data instead of OOB data. Let me know how you go.

If you initialize via the hac, then you can select "no" for "Import Sample Data" under your initialdata extension.
