ACS AEM Commons

This project is a unified collection of AEM/CQ code generated by the AEM consulting practice.

Building

This project uses Maven for building. Common commands:

From the root directory, run mvn -PautoInstallPackage clean install (for AEM 6.5) or mvn -PautoInstallPackage,cloud clean install (for AEMaaCS) to build the bundles and content packages and install the container package to an AEM instance.

From the bundle directory, run mvn -PautoInstallBundle clean install to build just the bundle and install to an AEM instance. In addition there is the profile autoInstallUiAppsPackage to just install the ui.apps package to AEM.

The Maven profile cloud is used to both build both the AEMaaCS and the AEM 6.5 packages/bundles as well as to optionally install the version targeted for AEMaaCS (with the additional profile autoInstallPackage or autoInstallUiPackage). It is automatically active when no other profile is activated via command line or settings,.xml.

To build only the version for AEM 6.5 (without using any other profiles) use the command line option -P \!cloud to deactivate the default profile cloud.

Using with VLT

To use vlt with this project, first build and install the package to your local AEM instance as described above. Then cd to content/src/main/content/jcr_root and run

vlt --credentials admin:admin checkout -f ../META-INF/vault/filter.xml --force http://localhost:4502/crx

Once the working copy is created, you can use the normal vlt up and vlt ci commands.

Specifying AEM Host/Port

The AEM host and port can be specified on the command line with: mvn -Dcrx.host=otherhost -Dcrx.port=5502
