Hi @aemcomm,
There are no public available collections java api that you could use, apart of the one pointed by @saravanan_dharmaraj which supports lightbox only.
However you can use ResourceCollectionManager and ResourceCollection from Sling - this api is used by internal AEM mechanisms to support collection.
It can be used like below:
// place for imports
import org.apache.sling.api.servlets.SlingAllMethodsServlet;
import org.apache.sling.resource.collection.ResourceCollection;
import org.apache.sling.resource.collection.ResourceCollectionManager;
public class CollectionServlet extends SlingAllMethodsServlet {
@Reference
private ResourceCollectionManager resourceCollectionManager;
@Override
protected void doPost(SlingHttpServletRequest request, SlingHttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
// path to collection
String collectionPath = "/content/dam/collections/L/L7vWaG-HBgET5udyUwdI/test-collection";
// path to asset
String assetPath = "/content/dam/we-retail/en/activities/biking/forest-trail.jpg";
ResourceResolver resourceResolver = request.getResourceResolver();
Resource collection = resourceResolver.getResource(collectionPath);
Resource asset = resourceResolver.getResource(assetPath);
if (collection != null && asset != null) {
ResourceCollection rc = resourceCollectionManager.getCollection(collection);
if (rc != null) {
if (rc.add(asset)) {
resourceResolver.commit();
}
}
}
}
}
You can pass asset and collection path as a parameter, above example used hardcoded values for simplification.
