    Can someone help in what format we need to upload the layout extension for directus? does directus app automatically take the layout from it?

    @Jeyakumarrathnaselvi Not an expert on directus, so your mileage with my suggestion might vary.

    Have you seen https://docs.directus.io/extensions/creating-extensions/ ? I ran npm init directus-extension on my PC:

    $ npm init directus-extension
    Need to install the following packages:
      create-directus-extension
    Ok to proceed? (y) y
    npm WARN deprecated @types/cssnano@5.1.0: This is a stub types definition. cssnano provides its own type definitions, so you do not need this installed.
    npm WARN deprecated @types/pino@7.0.5: This is a stub types definition. pino provides its own type definitions, so you do not need this installed.
    This utility will walk you through creating a Directus extension.
    
    ? Choose the extension type layout
    ? Choose a name for the extension helloworld
    ? Choose the language to use javascript
    āœ” Done
    
    Your layout extension has been created at /home/girish/tmp/foo/helloworld
    
    Build your extension by running:
      cd helloworld
      npm run build
    	
    

    I then built it and got a dist/index.js . Per https://docs.directus.io/extensions/creating-extensions/#deploying-your-extension, I should upload that file as extensions/layouts/helloworld/index.js . I haven't tried all that since I don't know much about directus, maybe others here know.

    Just in case, presumably you've tried clearing browser cache etc? šŸ™‚

    I use Cloudron with Gandi & Hetzner

    @Jeyakumarrathnaselvi It looks like maybe you did not restart the app after uploading ? Just guessing because the file permissions of index.ts is still 'root'. It should become 'cloudron' after restart.

    @Jeyakumarrathnaselvi The index.js needs to be inside tabularview directory.

    Let me preface by saying I have little to no idea about Directus. This is my index.js:

    import{openBlock as e,createElementBlock as l,createElementVNode as o,toDisplayString as n,ref as t}from"vue";var r={inheritAttrs:!1,props:{collection:{type:String,required:!0},name:{type:String,required:!0}}};r.render=function(t,r,i,u,a,c){return e(),l("div",null,[o("p",null,"Name: "+n(i.name),1),o("p",null,"Collection: "+n(i.collection),1)])},r.__file="src/layout.vue";var i={id:"custom",name:"Helloworld",icon:"box",component:r,slots:{options:()=>null,sidebar:()=>null,actions:()=>null},setup:()=>({name:t("Helloworld Layout")})};export{i as default};
    

    Which I uploaded like this into extensions/layouts/helloworld and restarted the app:

    ca41667d-7212-4698-b705-955b472793ae-image.png

    I can then see the layout:

    @girish Thanks Girish. It worked. but there is a challenge with directus is they don't have an option to copy the existing layout of directus and make a small change and create it as a new extension. it doesn't help. we should develop from scratch as per them šŸ˜ž
