Glossary term: Customization Point

/glossary/customization_point/

Domain: UBOS Gears

Allows customization of deployed Apps or Accessories.

A variable for a App or Accessory deployed to an AppConfiguration whose value can be customized by the user for this specific AppConfiguration.

While any App or Accessory may define its own Customization Points in its UBOS Manifest, the values for Customization Points are specific to the AppConfiguration at which the App or Accessory has been deployed.

For example, an App such as Wordpress might allow the user to configure the title of their blog upon deployment. In this case, the App might declare a Customization Point called title in its UBOS Manifest. It may or may not specify a default value. If Wordpress is deployed twice, the values for its title may differ in these two AppConfigurations.
