[borro]

Hello!

I'm trying to develop a component which have to take data from VM3 database. Is there any documentation for solution this task? Should i use the standard Joomla documentation or there is a some specific knowledges for creating VM aimed component?

the VM tables are just tables

if u are dev'ing a new component complete u just use the tables as your source

but just to get data from the VM tables can be done in many ways.. e.g. plugin to extend VM then u can use all the classes etc that are already there for VM

The best way is to learn from our code.

You can use anywhere the vmModel::getModel(myModelName) to get a vm model. You should also use vmJsApi to add js scripts and vmText. Also vRequest instead of JInput, so you will stay compatible to VM on WP
