Re: Vanilla Sling and caconfig

[Ben Fortuna]

Thanks Stefan, works perfectly.

For benefit of others, I added this to my config node under /conf:

"security:acl": [
  { "principal": "everyone", "granted": ["jcr:read"] }
]

Docs suggest I should use "allow" rather than "granted", but that
didn't work for me.

regards,

ben

Vanilla Sling and caconfig

[Ben Fortuna]

Hi all,

Apologies for the novice question, just trying to understand how to use
caconfig with a vanilla Sling install.

It seems that to resolve a config lookup (via sling:configRef ->
/conf/example) I need to be logged in as Sling admin for it to resolve
correctly. If I am not logged in, the config lookup (via Sling models
@ContextAwareConfiguration) will fail (return empty values).

I can't see anywhere in the docs referring to ACLs for the /conf hierarchy,
just wondering if I need to configure something to allow config resolution
without being logged in.

Many thanks
Ben

Re: [question] 2 sling instances behind one apache server sharing 1 session

[Ben Fortuna]

Hi Ruben,

If you are logged in to your sling CMS is it to author content? If so, how
do you maintain consistency when load balancing across two nodes?

If you are not authoring, is the session to authenticate custom CMS
extensions to sing? In such scenario general advice seems to be
externalising session completely as a separate session not integrated with
the sling session.

Regards,
Ben

Re: [slingstart-maven-plugin] configuring logs

[Ben Fortuna]

You could create a bundle that includes the following config (remove the
third line to output to default log file, or remove filename to output to
stdout):

"org.apache.sling.commons.log.LogManager": {

"jcr:primaryType":"sling:OsgiConfig",
"org.apache.sling.commons.log.file": "debug.log",
"org.apache.sling.commons.log.level": "debug"
}

Re: Groovy script support in Sling 10

[Ben Fortuna]

Hi Bertrand,

I've raised an issue in SLING Jira with more details:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-7545

I can see there were some changes in sling-scripting-core (e.g.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-7311) which may be the cause,
but I can't confirm it as yet.

Re: How to create Rest APIs for non-JCR data in Sling 8??

[Ben Fortuna]

Hi Jason,

Possibly I approached it from the wrong angle in my assessment, happy to
hear it's been working for you and others. I may try again for APIs in
future.

That aside, after using sling for serving web content I can't recommend it
enough. For me it certainly puts the fun back in web development.

Re: How to create Rest APIs for non-JCR data in Sling 8??

[Ben Fortuna]

Hi Roy,

Yes my reference to data/content was based on the OP stating he'll be
storing data in JCR, so effectively yes he probably could just use a JCR
repo backend.

I'm not totally discounting Sling as an API platform, just that it probably
won't integrate easily with other API frameworks (e.g. JAX-RS, Spring,
etc.). Also if the API is serving more than JCR "resources" (i.e. some form
of data processing) then it will probably need to use servlets. A lot of
maybes I guess. ;-)

ben

Re: How to create Rest APIs for non-JCR data in Sling 8??

[Ben Fortuna]

Hi Henry,

I agree with what you say about keeping it simple and using a servlet.
However there are many frameworks and platforms today geared towards making
it easier to implement REST APIs, and I think non-trivial APIs would
probably benefit from using one.

As such, to me an API should live outside the Sling process and use sling
as a data/content source.

Ben

Re: How to create Rest APIs for non-JCR data in Sling 8??

[Ben Fortuna]

Hi Lance,

I would personally recommend that you find a different solution for serving
REST APIs. I also thought it might be good to service an API from Sling, as
it does make JSON a "first class citizen", but then I realised that Sling
is geared towards serving resources from JCR and ultimately you'll be
fighting with the platform to serve an API without all the JCR metadata.

At very least you could try to run Jersey using plain Servlets, but I think
Sling should be left to do what it is meant for.

Other solutions such as Spring Boot or Ratpack are specifically designed
for serving REST APIs, and with Docker it is trivial to support both a
Sling platform for web content and an API back-end on the same server.

One thing about REST APIs I do think Sling is good for is stubbing. You can
easily create example API responses to test your web UI without needing to
run with a back-end (good for UI testing).

regards,
ben

HTMLSerializer and unicode characters

[Ben Fortuna]

Hi everyone,

I've noticed that when I have unicode special characters (e.g. emoji) in my
sling content and the sling rewriter is enabled the characters are not
output correctly to the browser. For example:

 becomes 

If I disable the rewriter pipeline the output is as expected.

I've looked in the code and I suspect the issue is in the HTMLSerializer
from the Cocoon library, however I'm not sure why as it should be using the
default encoding for output (which is UTF-8). My rewriter pipeline is using
the default html-generator and html-serializer provided by sling.

Is anyone familiar with using unicode characters in sling, and is there any
special configuration required? Many thanks.

ben

Response content type when url has no extension

[Ben Fortuna]

Hi,

Just wondering what is the standard practice for managing sling requests
with no extension. My use case is that my index node is called 'index' so
when I get a request for just the domain name root (ie.
http://www.example.com/) it will redirect to my index but without an
extension (ie. /content/blah/index). The content type for this request is
text/plain, so the browser doesn't render the page.

Should this be handled in sling or is it common practice to use another
mechanism to redirect / to /index.html?

Many thanks.

Regards,
Ben

Re: Sling and link rewriter

[Ben Fortuna]

Hi Oliver,

Actually I just got it working now. I had some configuration issues to work
through, but ended up with the following additional bundles to install:

* cocoon-serializers-charsets-1.0.0.jar (NOTE: version 1.0.2 didn't work)
* org.apache.sling.commons.html-1.0.0.jar
* org.apache.sling.rewriter-1.1.2.jar

Hopefully the OBR will be updated eventually to reflect these required
dependencies (not sure of the process for updating OBR?)

Re: Sling and link rewriter

[Ben Fortuna]

Just to follow up on this, I discovered the OBR version of sling rewriter
is old (1.0.4) so when I installed from maven central (1.1.2) I am not
seeing the same errors. Here is the link if anyone is interested:

http://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Corg.apache.sling%7Corg.apache.sling.rewriter%7C1.1.2%7Cbundle

I also installed Cocoon serializers using this JAR:

http://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Corg.apache.cocoon%7Ccocoon-serializers-charsets%7C1.0.2%7Cbundle

Re: Sling and link rewriter

[Ben Fortuna]

Hi Oliver,

Yes I did refresh after installing, however I couldn't find a standard OSGi
bundle for cocoon, so I just embedded the cocoon-serializers JAR to my own
bundle. So it's possible I am not exporting all of the required packages.

Are there standard cocoon bundles I should use for the rewriter support? I
will look around a bit more to see if I can find some better bundle to use.
Many thanks.

Regards,
Ben

the Cocoon import is optional. Did you refresh package imports after
installing Cocoon?

Sling and link rewriter

[Ben Fortuna]

Hi,

I am seeing a curious error when I try to inject a link transformer in the
rewriter pipeline of Sling 8 (running in docker). It tells me that the
HtmlSerializerFactory can't find the HtmlSerializer class, even though it
is an inner class of the factory.

I suspect the problem is that the required Cocoon libraries are not
installed, but even then the rewriter bundle does not explicitly import the
cocoon packages.

Has anyone used the default Sling rewriter pipeline serializer, or do most
use the implementation that comes with AEM (which is apparently different)?
Many thanks.

Regards,
Ben

Re: Decoupling Sling from Launchpad

[Ben Fortuna]

Hi Dragos,

I haven't really looked at Karaf in much detail, it's almost a bit
overwhelming the size of that project. But I will have a look to see if
they have documented something similar to what I am trying.

regards,
ben

  Hi all,
 
  Just wondering if it is possible to decouple Sling from the Launchpad

  bundle. I am trying to embed the Sling bundles in a  customised OSGi
  environment, however it appears (from documentation) that I should be
 using
  the Launchpad Base to launch my environment.
 
  From what I can tell the Sling Launchpad bundle embeds Felix, and as
 such
  excludes other OSGi runtimes. I was hoping to be able to support
 different
  OSGi runtimes in my environment.
 
  Are there any examples of Sling running on a different OSGi runtime (not
  Felix)? Many thanks for your time.
 
  regards,
  ben
