IDOL Component Dependencies

Some IDOL components have dependencies on other components. You must ensure that you configure these dependencies in the component configuration files.

For example, you must configure:

  • the Category component with the details of the data index (Content component), and the category index (Agentstore component).
  • the Community component with the details of the agent index (Agentstore component).
  • the View component with the details of a Content component that it can use for highlighting.
  • the QMS component with the details of the promotion Agentstore component.

    NOTE: The Agentstore is an IDOL Content component with a different configuration file. The Content component zip package includes two configuration files:

    • agentstore.cfg is for use with Category and Community.
    • agentstore_qms.cfg is for use with QMS. To deploy an Agenstore for QMS, rename this file to agentstore.cfg (and rename or remove the other file), or use the -configfile option to choose the configuration file (see Start IDOL from the Command Line).
  • the Connector and CFS with the details of the component to send data to.
  • the DIH and DAH components with details of the components to distribute to.

This list is not exhaustive. For more information about component dependencies, refer to the component documentation.
