How to create custom component in Webcenter Content (UCM)

Requirement – How to Create a UCM custom component

Solutions- Please follow the below steps –

Starting the componentWizard – CD to the path where the component wizard is.
[[email protected] ~]$ cd /oracle/Middleware/user_projects/domains/ucm_domain/ucm/cs/bin // this path will of your weblogic domain
[[email protected] bin]$ ./ComponentWizard

1. Goto Options -> Add
You get the below window.
Fill in the component Name. Click OK.

You get below screen.
Custom component gets created here (path may be different for you)
/oracle/ecm/ucm_domain/ucm/cs/custom
The component is created and you can add resources by clicking Add.

1. Select service. Click next.

Fill in the Name of the Service, Service class, Template. Fill in access levels.
Add actions by clicking on Add.

Click OK. Click Finish.

Similarly Add a Resource.

Resources created
demo_component_resource.htm
demo_component_service.htm
demo_component.hda

Modify the resource.htm as below. Give the Service name, handler name and search order.
The handler name is the fully qualified name of the java file where the service method (printTheName()) is created.

Place the compiled java class file in the classes folder inside the custom component.
cs/custom/demo_component/classes/de/xyz/ucm/service

Build the component to create the manifest.hda file. Demo_component.zip is created that can now be installed on other UCM and used.
Build by clicking on Build.

Enable the component.

Hit the browser with the service Name and required parameters
http://192.168.0.118:16200/cs/idcplg?IdcService=PRINT_THE_NAME&IsJava=1&dDocName=HO051621920
My java code is as below. (Calls a standard UCM service from my custom service)
