Integrating custom application with Joomla

I'm developing a product catalog manager in Java + ExtJS 2.0 on the client side. The things are working pretty well and now i would like to integrate my nice product listings in a Joomla installation to take advantage of the wonderful CMS features offered by this platform.

I have to face the following problems:
  • I should manage a separate Joomla installation for every seller
  • I have to integrate my user management with joomla
  • I have to write some module/plugin to integrate my product search and product list
Whenever i'm confident to find all the required documentation to afford the last point, i still need some directions from experienced users to achieve quickly the first two points.

If you can suggest my some idea i would be really gratefull.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Perhaps this link may help you, it talk about integrating an external app on a component for joomla

http://dev.joomla.org/component/option, ... g_scripts/

And you must write a mambot for adding your search product in the main joomla search.
