Class FacebookFeedHooks

FacebookFeedHooks interface containing extension points for customizing Facebook export feeds.

These hooks are not executed in a transaction.

The extension points (hook names), and the functions that are called by each extension point. A function must be defined inside a JavaScript source and must be exported. The script with the exported hook function must be located inside a site cartridge. Inside the site cartridge a 'package.json' file with a 'hooks' entry must exist.

"hooks": "./hooks.json"

The hooks entry links to a json file, relative to the 'package.json' file. This file lists all registered hooks inside the hooks property:

"hooks": [ {"name": "dw.extensions.facebook.feed.transformProduct", "script": "./hooks.ds"} ]

A hook entry has a 'name' and a 'script' property.

• The 'name' contains the extension point, the hook name.
• The 'script' contains the script relative to the hooks file, with the exported hook function.
