Overriding Global Presets with JSON Files ✨ new v15

you are here (click to zoom) - discover the stack

This is a new, advanced feature in 2sxc 15.

In some cases you want to reconfigure the global presets, which are stored in JSON files in the App_Data/system folder.

If you do this, any update of 2sxc would wipe out your changes.

Override Feature

Because of this, v15 has a feature to override settings-entities, and it works as follows:

  • if there is an entity in App_Data/system-custom/entities
  • with the same GUID as an entity in App_Data/system/entities

Then the loader will use it to override the original entity.

How to Create such A Configuration

  1. Find the "original" entity in the App_Data/system/entities and import it into any app in 2sxc.
  2. Make the changes you want
  3. Export it as json
  4. Place it in App_Data/system-custom/entities

Verify it works, then distribute it to your installations.
