Widgets

XML configuration file:
The core of the whole widget. This one specifies visibility for specific groups, determines in which module should widget be located and how should it be called in the panel. The syntax and layout configuration is similar to every xml OTRS configuration

Example configuration file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<otrs_config version="2.0" init="Application">

The schema file is a JSON file. It specifies the most important aspects of the whole widget.

   },
   "id": "1000",
   "widgetFile": "WIDGET_Contract.js",
   "compiled": false,
   "view" : "TicketPreview",
   "slot" : "slot4",
   "name": "Contracts"
