Asset drag and drop issue in the AEM dialog

Issue: In latest AEM versions when we open the dialog to author the field which allows drag and drop of the assets, the backdrop hides sidebar and because of that we are not able to open the sidebar to drag and drop assets in the dialog field.

Solution: To avoid this issue, open sidebar first and then open dialog to author. By this way backdrop will not hide the sidebar.

A Simple Example of Sling Pipes in AEM

Image
With Sling Pipes it's very easy to update the AEM content. It is a tool for executing CURD operations over resources in AEM repository. Hope this will be helpful. Plumber is OSGi service and it has  newPipe method in which we need to pass resourceResolver . After that we can call several pipes or methods to achieve our objective. Some of them are- echo(path) - to retrieve the root resource of the path. write(config) - to write/update properties of a resource. run() - to execute the code. Use case: To update property of a node using Sling Pipe OSGi service.  Dependencies required-  1.  Sling Query (org.apache.sling.query-4.0.0)-  Maven Repository: org.apache.sling » org.apache.sling.query » 4.0.0 (mvnrepository.com) 2, Sling Pipes (org.apache.sling.pipes-3.1.0)-  Maven Repository: org.apache.sling » org.apache.sling.pipes » 3.1.0 (mvnrepository.com) Either install the bundle of respective dependency in console or add them in the project's pom.xml System user -   1.

Use cases of ModifiableValueMap in AEM

The  ModifiableValueMap  is an extension of the  ValueMap  which allows to modify and persist properties.  All changes to this map are stored in the transient layer of the resource resolver or more precisely in the transient layer of the resource provider managing this resource. Use cases  in AEM :: Mandatory step -       1. Get the resource resolver.      2. Get ModifiableValueMap interface -                  ModifiableValueMap mvp = resolver.adaptTo(ModifiableValueMap.class); 1. Get SINGLE value property of a node:      String value =  mvp .get("multivalue", String.class);  2. Get MULTI value property of a node:     String[] value =  mvp .get("multivalue", String[].class);  3. Add SINGLE value property to a node:     String val = "single";     a.  mvp.put("singlevalue", val);     b.   mvp.putIfAbsent("singlevalue", val);   4. Add MULTI value property to a node:      String[] val = {"test1","test2"};     mvp .put(&q

Run modes in AEM

Run modes allow you to configure AEM instances for specific purpose.  Two types of run modes in AEM- 1. Standard Run modes: Run modes provided by AEM. They cannot be changed once AEM instance is installed. Mainly they are Author and Publish. 2. Custom Run modes: Along with standard run modes we can add our custom run modes. Custom run modes can be environment specific. Mainly they are development, QA, staging and production. They can be changed on every instance re-start. Examples :      1. author, dev     2. publish, test Problem:: How to check active run mode of AEM instance? Solution::      Step 1 - Goto  http://localhost:4502/aem/start.html     Step  2 -  Goto Tools section.     Step 3 - Goto Operation and then System Overview as below screenshot. There you can find active run mode details under instance  section along with other system details. Problem:: How to utilize these run modes in AEM development? Solution::      We can utilize these run modes to do any development spec
