Features

This module provides the following features for JustBetter extensions:

• Unified Admin Menu: A centralized "JustBetter" menu item in the Magento admin panel for quick access to all JustBetter extension configurations
• Configuration Tab: A dedicated "JustBetter Extensions" tab in System Configuration to group all extension settings
• Extensions Overview: An admin panel displaying all installed JustBetter extensions with version information and GitHub links

Getting Started

This module is automatically installed as a dependency when installing any JustBetter module that depends on it.

After installation, enable the module:

bin/magento module:enable JustBetter_Core
bin/magento setup:upgrade && bin/magento cache:flush

Integration Guide

This section describes how other JustBetter extensions can integrate with the Core module to provide a consistent user experience across all JustBetter modules.

Adding as a Dependency

Add the Core module as a dependency in your extension's composer.json:

{
    "require": {
        "justbetter/magento2-core": "^1.0"
    }
}

Define the module sequence in etc/module.xml to ensure proper loading order:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"  xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Module/etc/module.xsd">
    <module name="JustBetter_YourModule">
        <sequence>
            <module name="JustBetter_Core"/>
        </sequence>
    </module>
</config>

Automatic Extensions List

All packages with the justbetter/* vendor prefix are automatically detected and displayed in the Extensions overview within the admin panel. No additional configuration is required for your extension to appear in this list.

The extensions list displays:

• Package name with link to GitHub repository
• Installed version (from composer.lock)

Adding Menu Items

To add your extension to the centralized JustBetter admin menu, create etc/adminhtml/menu.xml. The menu uses a section header with submenu items structure:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Backend:etc/menu.xsd">
    <menu>
        <add id="JustBetter_YourModule::section"
             title="Your Module"
             module="JustBetter_YourModule"
             translate="title"
             sortOrder="40"
             parent="JustBetter_Core::menu"
             resource="JustBetter_YourModule::menu"/>
        <add id="JustBetter_YourModule::config"
             title="Configuration"
             module="JustBetter_YourModule"
             translate="title"
             sortOrder="10"
             action="adminhtml/system_config/edit/section/yourmodule_settings"
             parent="JustBetter_YourModule::section"
             resource="JustBetter_YourModule::config"/>
    </menu>
</config>

Using the Configuration Tab

To place your extension's configuration under the "JustBetter Extensions" tab in System Configuration, create etc/adminhtml/system.xml:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Config:etc/system_file.xsd">
    <system>
        <section id="yourmodule_settings" translate="label" sortOrder="20" showInDefault="1" showInWebsite="1" showInStore="1">
            <label>Your Module</label>
            <tab>justbetter</tab>
            <resource>JustBetter_YourModule::config</resource>
            <group id="general" translate="label" type="text" sortOrder="10" showInDefault="1" showInWebsite="1" showInStore="1">
                <label>General Settings</label>
                <!-- Add your configuration fields here -->
            </group>
        </section>
    </system>
</config>
