Re: How to change run mode in Sling8

Ok that makes sense. It sounds like developing a new codebase *based on* the launchpad might be my next step. I guess the launchpad is really an example, and not intended to be deployed to production as provided from the war download link here: https://sling.apache.org/downloads.cgi. I guess

I would say that's how the creators of JavaEE intended for deployment options to be specified :) On Thu, Jan 12, 2017 at 10:53 AM lancedolan wrote: > I can look into overriding init params through some servlet container > features. Is that the way that Sling devs expect

Re: How to change run mode in Sling8

Yes, I mean your application code. In my experience, the actual Sling launchpad is not very useful by itself except as a learning tool. In any real-world case, you will end up creating your own launchpad by taking the standard Sling launchpad and adding additional bundles to it. And while yes,

Re: Not-sticky sessions with Sling?

If you are running a cluster with Sling on Oak/Mongo then sticky sessions would be required due to eventual consistent nature of repository. Changes done on one cluster node would not be immediately visible on other cluster node. Hence to provide a consistent user experience sticky sessions would

Re: How to change run mode in Sling8

Why are you running the war file on Tomcat? It's not wrong of course. However, I believe that most users use the standalone jar and therefore help may be more readily available for that setup. Regards Julian On Wed, Jan 11, 2017 at 4:19 AM, lancedolan wrote: > I cannot

Hello Experts, We are a very small company and starting to propose Apache Sling based solutions for budget clients. I would like to know any small company (professionals) provides Apache Sling architectural review and yearly production support plans? you can send email response to ravi (at)

RE: JS Use API usability or limitations

i've not tested your example but by reading the code i would say it should work like this conceptually. i think there is no "community consensus" on using the JS use API or not. i personally would advise to not use it for non-trivial tasks, because it creates a unhealthy combination of

Re: JS Use API usability or limitations

Hi Lance! The problem is not the JS Use API but the way the JS Iterator is used. One should do: for (var [key, res] in Iterator(children)) { returnObj.content += res.name; } Also, Robert is right, you should strive to keep your business logic (use objects) as light as possible do the

RE: JS Use API usability or limitations

Thank you for your time everybody! For posterity: First to clarify, my very specific question is how to iterate an iterable in the model-building logic (what us old timers might call a "backing bean"). I do already know that I can use HTL to iterate the children, and I do recognize that in this

Re: How to change run mode in Sling8

But don't you need your own artifact anyway to include your custom application bits? IIRC (and I can't find the code right now), we explicitly *don't* allow for system properties to be used for sling properties in a webapp case since multiple webapps can be deployed into the same container. In

Alright, I'll bite. If you're talking about model building logic. Is there some architectural constraint on why you don't just stick with java? -Jason -Original Message- From: lancedolan [mailto:lance.do...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, January 11, 2017 2:37 PM To:

RE: JS Use API usability or limitations

No architectural reason - purely speed of development reasons. Our team has switched from Java to Node.js on our other projects and are seeing real gains in dev time. We believe we could see the same faster development with lightweight JS files as opposed to traditional type-safe Java. I think

Re: How to change run mode in Sling8

Hmm, my genuine apologies, I'm not sure what custom application bits are. If you're saying that I can deploy code that I write to Sling, that's absolutely true, but my understanding is that I need to change the runmode BEFORE the Sling instance starts up for the very first time, and I can only

I can look into overriding init params through some servlet container features. Is that the way that Sling devs expect me to turn on Mongo functionality? -- View this message in context: http://apache-sling.73963.n3.nabble.com/How-to-change-run-mode-in-Sling8-tp4069494p4069529.html Sent from

Not-sticky sessions with Sling?

The only example code I can find to authenticate to Sling will use the JEE servlet container's "j_security_check" which then stores the authenticated session in App Server memory. A load-balancer without sticky-sessions enabled will cause an unstable experience for users, in which they are
