				# Rating System
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
CMS kit provides a **rating** system to to add ratings feature to any kind of resource like blog posts, comments, etc. Here how the rating component looks like on a sample page:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Options
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The rating system provides a mechanism to group ratings by entity types. For example, if you want to use the rating system for products, you need to define an entity type named `Product` and then add ratings under the defined entity type.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`CmsKitRatingOptions` can be configured in the domain layer, in the `ConfigureServices` method of your [module](https://docs.abp.io/en/abp/latest/Module-Development-Basics). Example:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```csharp
 | 
						|
Configure<CmsKitRatingOptions>(options =>
 | 
						|
{
 | 
						|
    options.EntityTypes.Add(new RatingEntityTypeDefinition("Product"));
 | 
						|
});
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
> If you're using the blog feature, the ABP framework defines an entity type for the blog feature automatically. You can easily override or remove the predefined entity types in `Configure` method like shown above.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`CmsKitRatingOptions` properties:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- `EntityTypes`: List of defined entity types(`RatingEntityTypeDefinition`) in the rating system.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`RatingEntityTypeDefinition` properties:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- `EntityType`: Name of the entity type.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## The Rating Widget
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The ratings system provides a rating widget to allow users send ratings to resources in public websites. You can simply place the widget on a page like below. 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```csharp
 | 
						|
@await Component.InvokeAsync(typeof(RatingViewComponent), new
 | 
						|
{
 | 
						|
  entityType = "Product",
 | 
						|
  entityId = "entityId"
 | 
						|
})
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`entityType` was explained in the previous section. `entityId` should be the unique id of the product, in this example. If you have a Product entity, you can use its Id here.
 |

## Domain Layer
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
#### Aggregates
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This module follows the [Entity Best Practices & Conventions](https://docs.abp.io/en/abp/latest/Best-Practices/Entities) guide.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
##### Rating
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
A rating represents a given rating from a user.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- `Rating` (aggregate root): Represents a given rating in the system.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
#### Repositories
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This module follows the [Repository Best Practices & Conventions](https://docs.abp.io/en/abp/latest/Best-Practices/Repositories) guide.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Following custom repositories are defined for this feature:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- `IRatingRepository`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
#### Domain services
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This module follows the [Domain Services Best Practices & Conventions](https://docs.abp.io/en/abp/latest/Best-Practices/Domain-Services) guide.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
##### Reaction Manager
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`RatingManager` is used to perform some operations for the `Rating` aggregate root.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Application layer
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
#### Application services
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- `RatingPublicAppService` (implements `IRatingPublicAppService`): Implements the use cases of rating system.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Database providers
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
#### Common
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
##### Table / collection prefix & schema
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
All tables/collections use the `Cms` prefix by default. Set static properties on the `CmsKitDbProperties` class if you need to change the table prefix or set a schema name (if supported by your database provider).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
##### Connection string
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This module uses `CmsKit` for the connection string name. If you don't define a connection string with this name, it fallbacks to the `Default` connection string.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
See the [connection strings](https://docs.abp.io/en/abp/latest/Connection-Strings) documentation for details.
