A CAP plugin that extends @sap/cds/common with enhanced reuse data in .csv, published as a sample of how to write a CAP plugin rather than as something to run in production.

Adding it as a dependency automatically extends selected definitions in @sap/cds/common and fills the database with enhanced initial data, without further configuration or coding, which is the plug and play principle of CAP plugins working on a small piece of reuse content. Its own README puts a caution above all of that: this is just a sample, not intended for production use and not optimised for performance or security, meant to demonstrate how to create a CAP plugin and how to use it in an application. The application it is used in is the capire/bookstore sample.

@capire/common

This is a CAP plugin which extends @sap/cds/common, and provides enhanced reuse data in .csv. It is used in the bookstore sample.

Caution

This is just a sample, not intended for production use. It is meant to demonstrate how to create a CAP plugin and how to use it in your application. It is not optimized for performance or security.

Plug & Play

Following the plug & play principle of CAP plugins, adding this dependency to your project will automatically extend selected definitions in @sap/cds/common, as well as filling your database with enhanced initial data, both of which being applied to your application without any further configuration or coding efforts.
