  3. Overview

  4. Introduction to the problem • Imagine the following situation: • The author needs to add a message showing the current page’s title • They want to be able to modify the text around the title How?

  5. Current “Solution” • Author does this: • Developer does this: • Just to get this… • When authors want to interact with the context of the content they are forced to rely on a developer

  6. Aem templated dialogs solution • Author does this: • Gets this! • No developer no problem!

  7. Always the best part Demo

  8. What’s the nitty gritty? Tech talk

  9. How it works • HTML Rewriter • Property aggregation • Java Reflection • Custom resource type for dialog • Datasource + JS • CoralUI 3 APIs

  10. Available properties • Page Properties – both local and inherited • Custom POJO properties

  11. What about those sweet custom properties? • Commoninterface • Implement the interface: com.bounteous.dialogs.core.model.BaseModel • Sling Model • Adapts from a Resource – page/jcr:content • Any getters you want (thanks Reflection)

  12. Anything else? • HTML rewriting means the content is still cached – performant • Context/page based property aggregation means translation is • Supports recursion in the custom models (i.e. prefix.object.subobject.value) • Works regardless of whether you use the custom dialog field • Even works for links (rewrites the href) – great for lead gen

  13. You like pie right? Just as easy. How to use it

  14. Configure for your site • Add a rewriter configuration (or modify your own)

  15. Is two clicks too many? • Enable the Property Aggregator OSGi service

  16. Can I have it?

  17. Yes! …soon • Contribution to the ACS AEM Commons currently in review • Compatible with AEM 6.3 & 6.4

  18. Summary

  19. Wrapping Up • Key Points • Authors who want to be able to actually control their content need AEM Templated Dialogs • Extend the data to your heart’s desire with custom POJOs • Interested in More? • The full feature will soon be available in the standard ACS AEM Commons package: https://adobe-consulting-services.github.io/acs-aem-commons/ • Interested in more cool AEM stuff?
