Configure The Poll Plug-in

Configuring the Poll plug-in involves a couple of simple tasks, described in the following sections. In these instructions, the placeholder escenic-config is used to represent the path of your Escenic configuration, as defined with the com.escenic.config property in escenic-home/assemblytool/assemble.properties. If com.escenic.config is not defined, then escenic-config has a default definition of escenic-home/localconfig.

The general procedure for configuring the Poll plug-in is:

  1. If the escenic-config/com/escenic/poll folder does not exist, create it.

  2. If the escenic-config/com/escenic/poll folder does not contain MentometerManager.properties and PollSchedule.properties files, copy them from escenic-home/engine/plugins/poll/misc/siteconfig/com/escenic/poll.

  3. Edit MentometerManager.properties and PollSchedule.properties to meet your requirements, as described in the following sections.

  4. Use the assembly tool to reassemble the Content Engine.

  5. Redeploy the Content Engine.
