Karol Lewandowski created SLING-12302: -----------------------------------------
Summary: CA Config access syntax is inconsistent in HTL Key: SLING-12302 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-12302 Project: Sling Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Karol Lewandowski I have a problem understanding how nested configs can be accessed in HTL or if there is a bug in the implementation. The [documentation|https://sling.apache.org/documentation/bundles/context-aware-configuration/context-aware-configuration.html#accessing-configuration-from-htlsightly-templates] gives an example: {{{}$\{caconfig['x.y.z.ConfigSample']['nestedConfig/stringParam']{}}}} However, it doesn't work when a configuration annotation class is defined. Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a config node: {{/conf/we-retail/sling:configs/us/en/sling:configs/com.mysite.core.config.TestConfig}} {code:xml} <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <jcr:root xmlns:sling="http://sling.apache.org/jcr/sling/1.0" xmlns:jcr="http://www.jcp.org/jcr/1.0" jcr:primaryType="sling:OsgiConfig" email="t...@example.com" enabled="{Boolean}true" number="{Long}123"> <nested jcr:primaryType="sling:OsgiConfig" greeting="hello"/> </jcr:root> {code} and reference it from some path. 2. Access in HTL without configuration annotation class: {code:java} Email: ${caconfig['com.mysite.core.config.TestConfig'].email} Number: ${caconfig['com.mysite.core.config.TestConfig'].number} Enabled: ${caconfig['com.mysite.core.config.TestConfig'].enabled} Greeting (config path): ${caconfig['com.mysite.core.config.TestConfig/nested'].greeting} Greeting (property path): ${caconfig['com.mysite.core.config.TestConfig']['nested/greeting']} {code} This gives the output: {code:java} Email: t...@example.com Number: 123 Enabled: true Greeting (config path): hello Greeting (property path): hello {code} It works as expected. 3. Create annotation classes: {code:java} package com.mysite.core.config; import org.apache.sling.caconfig.annotation.Configuration; @Configuration public @interface TestConfig { String email(); int number() default 5; boolean enabled(); NestedConfig nested(); } {code} and {code:java} package com.mysite.core.config; public @interface NestedConfig { String greeting(); } {code} The previous HTL will print: {code:java} Email: t...@example.com Number: 123 Enabled: true Greeting (config path): hello Greeting (property path): {code} Accessing nested config value with property name path doesn't work. Is it expected? I'm working on support for CA Configs in AEM IDE, so I don't want to make it work in my AEM application but provide the correct syntax support. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
