Hello David,
custom/app-config.js was added in the maintenance release of MarkLogic
after ML6.0.
Please upgrade and use latest release of 6.0-2.3 and once you deploy a
new app from appbuilder you will see this new custom/app-config.js
file.

Ganesh and Mike,
Thanks. I understand what you’ve said here...
However, I do not see a “custom/app-config.js” file.
/application/custom/
/application/custom/app.css
/application/custom/app.js
/application/custom/app.xsl
/application/custom/contact.html
/application/custom/content.xsl
/application/custom/help.html
/application/custom/rewrite.xml
/application/custom/terms.html
Are you saying that I need to create one?
app-config.js is not mentioned in the Application Builder Developer’s Guide.
Is it just a “known thing” that if you create a file with “-config” on it,
it get’s loaded? Or does it just load all “.js” in alphabetical order?
The only files I see with “app” in the name in the custom directory are
app.css, app.xml and app.js.
If I am supposed to create a file called app-config.js, do I just upload it
via WebDAV to the app’s modules DB, or am I supposed to do a document-load?
Thanks,
David

(ML6.0)
David,
Mike Wooldridge from my team was kind enough to put together some sample
code that might guide you in the right direction.
One way is to copy and edit ML.createSidebar() function to do what you want
and then putting that rewrite in custom/app-config.js.
(Note: You cannot put this rewrite in custom/app.js and expect it to work
because of the sequence in which the JS is loaded.)
As an example, he has made some updates to ML.createSidebar() that maybe
along the lines of what you looking for. It assumes the example Oscar setup
and creates a relationship between the 'award' and 'win' facets. The 'win'
facet only appears in the sidebar if an 'award' facet has been selected (so,
it appears when the 'award' chiclet is appearing). I'm attaching the code
(which would be saved inside custom/app-config.js). The update involves
maintaining an 'invisible' array that tracks what facets should not be
shown. (This is different from our 'hidden' array, which tracks when a facet
list is collapsed and still shows its title.). Hope this helps.
You have to rename the .txt file attached as .js
Thanks Mike.

Subject: [MarkLogic Dev General] Customizing Facets in App Builder (ML6.0)
I have a few high level constraints/facets that are based on collections
(i.e., I simply gave no prefix in the specification and I get a facet for
“collection” with the counts of all the docs in each collection).
Now, I also have a bunch of other facets that I want to show up but only
when someone picks a particular content type (different content types have
different facets), i.e., someone clicks on one of the high level content
types.
I’m assuming that the only way I can modify the sidebar behavior for facets
is to modify javascript – create custom javascript. Is this correct? Or is
there I way I can accomplish this in an easier fashion?
If I have to change the javascript, is there an example of how to do this
somewhere?
Also, I guess at a minimum, I’d like to have the ability to easily specify
whether I wanted the facet to appear opened/expanded or closed. So, for
example, I’d like my collection facets to appear opened, but other range
index facets to appear closed since there will be a lot of them and they
will each have a lot of values.
Thanks,
David
