Creating custom document properties / schema without using IDE

I'm investigating Alfresco and Nuxeo to choose which is better for my company's requirement. The first thing I was looking for is the ability to add custom properties to document easly without the need to a dev tools but just a text editor or something.
/> In Alfresco community, I was able to add custom properties and apply some constraint using "Aspect", just by creating 3 xml files and one properties file, no "jar" no "manifest" just server restart.
/>

Is it possible to achieve the same with NUXEO, the is very important as I'm inclined more toward Nuxeo.

You can do it by naming your xml file with whatever_your_want-config.xml (only the -config.xml part is important), and put it in the config directory of your server:

  • $NUXEO/nxserver/config for a Tomcat distribution,
  • $NUXEO/server/default/deploy/nuxeo.ear/config for a JBoss distribution.

thanks Greg, is there any template to work on it ?

A template, I don't think so. Examples

if there is no template, then I'm missing important details on how to achieve the task.
