Welcome to the OFBiz Technical Documentation Wiki. In this wiki, you will find a wide range of information to help you setup, use or develop
OFBiz
DEPRECATED since R17 - We now use AsciiDoc
DEPRECATED since R17 - We now use AsciiDoc
We are currently setting up a document which is located inside the OFBiz system. You can access it in using the
demo server
or when you have OFBiz running locally with the url:
. (you need seed  data installed for this link to work).
The document is also available in the content application content -> navigation -> documents and re-uses the text from The OFBiz help system.
If you are willing to contribute to the OFBiz Help System, please see
OFBIZ-2219
Getting issue details...
STATUS
. The document is in
Docbook format
and can be updated by any OFBiz committer. An explanation is given in the same document.
We now use AsciiDoc, see the doc at
(get curious there, the stable documentation is for the current released branch, the next documentation is for the next to release branch, the trunk documentation is for the current development branch).
Getting Started
Once you have verified the minimum
system requirements
, you can
build and then run
your own version of OFBiz. Anyone looking to administer OFBiz will need to read the
Apache OFBiz Technical Production Setup Guide.
If you are going to be using OFBiz in other languages or currencies then please take a look at our
Internationalization / Localisation Guide
Information for Developers
There are several resources available if you are going to be developing in OFBiz, a
Beginners Tutorial
Developer Best Practices Guide
, some detailed background information on the
Data Model
and
Framework
that OFBiz is built on, and a detailed guide that describes the
Entities
and also the
Service Engine
We also have some basic diagrams that can help you understand the
framework components
If you are looking for more detail then we have a range of more detailed guide around the Entity Engine (
Entity Engine Guide
Entity Engine Configuration Guide
), Service Engine (
Service Engine Guide
Service Engine Configuration Guide
We also have a section on
FAQs, Tips & Tricks and How Tos.
NOTE: May need to split that FAQ page up because it has more tips and tricks and how tos rather than being really question based
Upgrading from a Previous OFBiz Version
If you are upgrading from a previous version of OFBiz then please take a look at the
Data Migration Guide
which can be used in conjunction with the
Apache OFBiz Technical Production Setup Guide
