Cloning to Local

To clone this project to your Adobe issued machine, clone over SSH and not HTTPS. It is highly recommended you set up a SSH key on your Adobe github.com account so facilitate this authentication.

Building

This project uses Maven for building. Common commands:

From the root directory, run mvn -PautoInstallPackage clean install to build the bundle and content package and install to a CQ instance.

From the bundle directory, run mvn -PautoInstallBundle clean install to build just the bundle and install to a CQ instance.

Using with VLT

To use vlt with this project, first build and install the package to your local CQ 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 CRX Host/Port

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

Rules

• Spaces, not tabs.
• Provide documentation in the Wiki. Doesn’t have to be a lot. Just something.
• Target AEM 5.6. If it works on 5.5, super. But don’t go out of your way.
• API classes and interfaces must have JavaDocs. Not necessary for implentation classes.
• Don’t use author tags. This is a community project.
