This tutorial demonstrates how to select an evaluator.
This tutorial assumes you have at least one module deployed (it can be any of the modules you created in previous tutorials).
When a module is deployed it is evaluated before being processed. This evaluation determines whether or not the module is to be executed. By default the default evaluator, default.extensibility.evaluator is applied to determine if the module should be executed. However, it is possible to select a different evaluator to be applied, from a list of provided evaluators, or a custom coded evaluator. This can be done through configuration or through the Share Module Deployment user interface. This tutorial looks at how this is achieved in practice.
You have seen how to use the Share Module Deployment page to set an evaluator for a module. This can also be achieved through configuration. In the module configuration file (extension-modules.xml in previous tutorials) you would add some XML to apply the evaluator:
...
<module>
<id>Module (New Content)</id>
<evaluator type="config.approval.evaluator">
<params>
<apply>false</apply>
</params>
</evaluator>
