    Creating Portlet In Liferay 7 DXP

    To Create Portlet in liferay 7 DXP we must have a liferay workspace if we are using gradle as a build tool. If you are using maven as a build you don't need to have a liferay workspace. If you are not familiar on creating liferay workspace please refer my previous post Liferay 7 DXP Setup In Eclipse


    Environment
    Liferay IDE Milestone 3.0.1 M2
    Liferay CE Portal Tomcat 7 GA3
    JDK 8
    MySql 5.7

    Step 1 : Create Module Project

    After creating a new liferay workspace right click on the liferay workspace created, in my case the workspace name is 'LiferayWorkspace' if you want to create a new portlet click on the 'New Liferay Module Project' option as shown in the below.
