SugarCrm create custom module without Studio - module

I am building a custom module for Sugar v.6.5.16. This module works with data of other modules so my module does not need database table, I do not want beens, not importable, I actually do not want anything. I have my own controller, own classes, etc and end of the story. It works. Now I want to create an installable package and NO, I DO NOT WANT TO MAKE A PACKAGE IN STUDIO. I have become quite frustrated because everyone suggests to create the package in studio where it is obbligatory to select a type(basic, company, etc) which will add data structure, bean, db table - which is really handsome but I do not want all that stuff. I actually made a test package with studio and I removed all bean info from manifest file and killed vardefs content and I managed to install it but then my module does not get listed in the "module=Administration&action=ConfigureTabs".
So, the question is what do i put where to be able to see my module listed?

Old post, but I think this page is really worth reading: http://alanstorm.com/sugar_crm_hello_world.
Excellent example of minimal module coding without studio and at the same time a very nice introduction to Sugar logic.

i Do agree with Rupesh shingh Create custom module fully in sugarcrm is not a good approach until and unless u understand the complete flow !
for understanding the flow you can go through this :-
1)understand controller,views and how it we can use it
Hello module
And try to complete 2-3 chapter of this book definitive guide by John Mertic
2)create costume module from studio and first try to do customization with edit and detail view
Flow how customize edit and details view
3)After this try to customize list view based on condition and try to customize additional details popup add where clause default listview try to create you own list view Add custom button in list view to overwrite the list view search
4)go through chapter 10 of definitive guide by John Mertic which shows how to create custom module with out creating package in studio ( manually ) !
I hope this will help !!!

i'm beginner in bpmn ,i created human task , how can add autocomplete in Candidate Users, Candidate Groups fileds it's possible? autocomplete from list ,active directory, ... .
The properties panel is just a minimal example and has no built in data binding.
However, it is itself highly flexible in what content is displayed and this is where you can start to develop your custom data provider.
There are not really tutorials out there on how to write a custom data provider for your properties panel but you can make use of the following example from the official examples repository:
bpmn-js-examples/properties-panel-extension/
It is quite complex and takes some time to understand just from the code and the spare documentation but let me tell you, that this is the place to look at if you want to write your custom data provider.
If you get stuck at a specific point, you can create a new question here on SO with a concrete code example.

Model in Module In Prestashop

I was just creating a form in prestashop.So, I need to store the data from ront in end in the database. Please anyone tell me how to implement Models in module or for module. As I was enable to find any related article regarding this. Please help.
Just look at one of the default modules provided by prestashop. Take an example that creates a form in front. Then look at how the view of that specific model was created and how was data treated via controller.

ActiveCollab Project management section - adding extra custom fields while add/edit

I'm trying to develop a custom module inside ActiveCollab(4.0.11) for adding some extra fields while adding/editing projects. ActiveCollab itself has ability to add only 3 custom fields, but I need to add more fields(text,dropdown etc). I have gone through the documentation of creating modules and started working on it, but did not get much details. I have used "on_project_created" event to trigger my custom module to capture the Project form data(added the required custom fields in to ActiveCollab database tables tables and it started showing on project add/edit form automatically). Now I'm stuck with not knowing how to pass the posted values from Handler function to Controller.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
activeCollab supports only three custom fields and there is no officially supported way to programatically add more fields. Exploiting internal API-s may work, but it is not recommended. These API-s may change or even disappear at any point, without prior notice.

Include field(s) from another module in SugarCRM Dashlet

I have created a custom module that tracks callbacks pertaining to a specific account. I need to know how to build a dashlet that can pull that account information based on the foreign key given. Can someone help me understand how to modify a dashlet to reference data from another module?
Take a look at the dashlet definitions in modules/Home/dashlets folder. What kind on view you want to achieve will depend how to do it. I allways used custom html view that i populated with data using php. Another option is to use generate listview functions and query's to utilize the SugarCRM function.
There is no simple explanation here.

ecommerce using stripes

We have planned to start an e commerce project using Stripes + Hibernate.
Please let me know if it is good to have admin & user part in same project or two separate ones.
If it is a single project , how do i separate admin side code & user code.
for eg: if i have admin actions in com.ecommerce.adminactions pacakge and user actions in com.ecommerce.useractions package should i use dynamicmappingfilter to direct admin request to com.ecommerce.adminactions and user request to com.ecommerce.useractions ?
-http://myecommerce.com/admin/* - > should always go to com.ecommerce.adminactions
-http://myecommerce.com/ -> should go to com.ecommerce.useractions
or
Should i use #urlbinding(/admin/st.action) in each class (Hard code).
The requirement is they need multistore concept.
Please let me know your thoughts on this.Your thoughts & suggestions will be helpful
Thanks
The Stripes framework does not really influence decisions on how you should organize you're project, or how you should organize your IDE project structure, or even Java package structure or URL structure.
One or more project
Unless you have many developers, keep it all in a single project.
Package structure
A package structure should organize you're Java classes so that you put classes that are logically related (as defined by your architecture!) is in the same package. For example: com.ecommerce.action.admin and com.ecommerce.action.. See also: Properly package your Java classes
URL structure
Typically you want you're URL structure to reflect the logical structure of your website (not the same as your technical structure). To accomplish this, you should not rely on the default URL's but use #UrlBinding. With the annotation you do not hard code links, as all generated links will automatically use the UrlBinding pattern.
Multi store concept
For a multi store concept, you will need to build logic in your application for distinguishing between the different shops. For example by adding a shop id to your URL parameters. Or more sophisticated by detecting the (sub)domain name used and map that to a shop id (You can implement this by using an interceptor).
