I'm trying to create a new Module pragmatically, but the metadata is not being called or showed , here how am doing it :
in CRM/Modules/ I added Vendors folder inside of it I added the follwoing folders :
metadata , views folders
in views => view.list.php
class VendorsViewList extends SugarView
{
}
and in metadata => listviewdefs.php
$listViewDefs['Vendors'] = array(
'NAME' => array(
'width' => '30',
'label' => 'LBL_LIST_OPPORTUNITY_NAME',
'link' => true,
'default' => true),
'SALES_STAGE' => array(
'width' => '10',
'label' => 'LBL_LIST_SALES_STAGE',
'default' => true),
'AMOUNT_USDOLLAR' => array(
'width' => '10',
'label' => 'LBL_LIST_AMOUNT_USDOLLAR',
'align' => 'right',
'default' => true,
'currency_format' => true,
),
'OPPORTUNITY_TYPE' => array(
'width' => '15',
'label' => 'LBL_TYPE'),
'LEAD_SOURCE' => array(
'width' => '15',
'label' => 'LBL_LEAD_SOURCE'),
'NEXT_STEP' => array(
'width' => '10',
'label' => 'LBL_NEXT_STEP'),
'PROBABILITY' => array(
'width' => '10',
'label' => 'LBL_PROBABILITY'),
'DATE_CLOSED' => array(
'width' => '10',
'label' => 'LBL_LIST_DATE_CLOSED',
'default' => true),
'CREATED_BY_NAME' => array(
'width' => '10',
'label' => 'LBL_CREATED'),
'ASSIGNED_USER_NAME' => array(
'width' => '5',
'label' => 'LBL_LIST_ASSIGNED_USER',
'module' => 'Employees',
'id' => 'ASSIGNED_USER_ID',
'default' => true),
'MODIFIED_BY_NAME' => array(
'width' => '5',
'label' => 'LBL_MODIFIED'),
'DATE_ENTERED' => array(
'width' => '10',
'label' => 'LBL_DATE_ENTERED',
'default' => true)
);
and in metafiles.php
$metafiles['Vendors'] = array(
'listviewdefs' => 'modules/Vendors/metadata/listviewdefs.php',
);
and in the main module folder I have the controller : Vendor.php
require_once('include/MVC/Controller/SugarController.php');
class Vendors extends SugarController
{
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}
}
I can't see what am missing here , it's calling the controller and the view , but not the metadata
I would recommend that you use module builder to create modules. If you select publish, module builder will give a zip file with the minimum needed to get started.
You can then customise the module from there.
Module builder sets up quite a lot for you. It:

The layout in the SugarModules of a package matches the layout of the CRM.
If you are editing a module in SuiteCRM. Remember that you must run a repair and rebuild to clear out any cached files.
