ARrrrrglll !!! Did you modify the file into the nuxeo-platform-notification-core-5.4.2 ? Bad, really bad :D

In fact Nuxeo is extensible and you can override easily with your own bundle (Nuxeo jar) the Nuxeo ones. This is the philosophy of the platform. We provide a Framework and some Modules (DM, DAM, Social-Collaboration, …) that can be a starting point for you. And you can override each part of the module.

So for your point you are near:

1. DON'T TOUCH INTO THE NUXEO JAR ! I insist
2. Do your step 2 but in your notification.xml file you must check that
3. the name of the component at the beginning of your XML file is different of the nuxeo ones. For instance <component name="com.yourcomapny.yourprojectname.ecm.platform.notification.service.NotificationContrib">
4. you must add this <require>org.nuxeo.ecm.platform.notification.service.NotificationContrib</require> (this is the name of the component that contains the contribution you want to override.
5. you must disable the default contribution as https://jira.nuxeo.com/browse/NXP-8105

With the require you ask to the runtime to deploy your contribution AFTER the Nuxeo one. As you give the same name of the notification, the service will override with yours.

So your contribution must be something like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<component name="com.caristix.nuxeo.ecm.platform.notification.service.NotificationContrib">
  <require>org.nuxeo.ecm.platform.notification.service.NotificationContrib</require>
  <extension target="org.nuxeo.ecm.platform.ec.notification.service.NotificationService" point="notifications">
    <notification name="Modification" enabled="false"></notification>
    <notification name="Modification" channel="email" availablein="Workspace" autosubscribed="true"
      template="yourtemplate" subject="Document modified" 
      label="label.nuxeo.notifications.modif"> 
      <event name="documentModified"/>
    </notification>

Last point, you can use the new Nuxeo version, Nuxeo 5.5 that brings really cool features..

Hope this will be the solution :D

First:

If i put , it disable also the one i want to add.

Here is what i just tried; 1- I disable the <notification name=“Modification” 2- I created a new <notification name=“Modification2” with a different name but using the same event.

The only problem remaining is to use the custom .ftl file i put in my own src/templates folder in my .jar. I am still receiving the default modification email template.

So i guess i need something in the NotificationService extension so that points to the src/templates folder in my .jar and not in the default templates folder

Any hint on this ?

<extension

target="org.nuxeo.ecm.platform.ec.notification.service.NotificationService"
point="notifications">

<notification name="Subscriptions updated" channel="email" enabled="true" availableIn="Workspace"
  autoSubscribed="true" template="subscriptionsUpdated" subject="New subscription" label="label.nuxeo.notifications.subscriptions.updated">
  <event name="subscriptionAssigned"/>
</notification>

<notification name="Modification" channel="email" enabled="false" availableIn="Workspace"
  autoSubscribed="false" template="modif" subject="Document modified" label="label.nuxeo.notifications.modif">
  <event name="documentModified"/>
</notification>

<notification name="Modification2" channel="email" enabled="true" availableIn="Workspace"
  autoSubscribed="false" template="modif" subject="Document modified" label="label.nuxeo.notifications.modif">
  <event name="documentModified"/>
</notification>

<extension

target="org.nuxeo.ecm.platform.ec.notification.service.NotificationService"
point="templates">

<template name="subscriptionsUpdated" src="templates/subscriptionsUpdated.ftl" />
<template name="modif" src="templates/modif.ftl" />


<template name="defaultNotifTemplate" src="templates/defaultNotifTemplate.ftl" />
