Hi,

Could you please explain how to access and display the DAM asset metadata information programatically in AEM

ex: content/dam/geometrixx/portraits/scott_reynolds.jpg

Thanks in advance.

Resource resource = resourceResolver.getResource("/a/path/to/a/file/in/the/dam"); Asset asset = resource.adaptTo(Asset.class); String fileName = asset.getMetadataValue("dc:title"); if (fileName instanceof Object[]) { Object[] titleArray = (Object[]) asset.getMetadata("dc:title"); fileName = (titleArray.length > 0) ? titleArray[0].toString() : ""; } else { fileName = asset.getName(); } Property property = asset.adaptTo(Node.class).getNode(JcrConstants.JCR_CONTENT + "/renditions/original/" + JcrConstants.JCR_CONTENT).getProperty(JcrConstants.JCR_DATA); fileSize = property.getBinary().getSize(); String thumbnailPath = asset.adaptTo(Node.class).getNode(JcrConstants.JCR_CONTENT + "/renditions/" + "you/rendition/to/use").getPath();

Hi ,

Thank you for your reply.I have followed it and written the servlet as follows

Please find the following code snippet.

@SlingServlet(paths="/bin/myNode")

public class GetRep extends org.apache.sling.api.servlets.SlingAllMethodsServlet{

@Override
   protected void doGet(SlingHttpServletRequest slingRequest, SlingHttpServletResponse slingResponse) throws ServerException, IOException
   {
       PrintWriter out=slingResponse.getWriter();
   Resource resource =slingRequest.getResourceResolver().getResource("content/dam/geometrixx/portraits/scott_reynolds.jpg/jcr:content/metadata");

// I have tried using resource path as follows also

// Resource resource =slingRequest.getResourceResolver().getResource("content/dam/geometrixx/portraits/scott_reynolds.jpg");

       Asset asset = resource.adaptTo(Asset.class);
       String fileName = asset.getMetadataValue("dc:title");
       out.println("File name is" +fileName);
       String formatValue=asset.getMetadataValue("dc:format");
       out.println("Format type is" +formatValue);
   }

}

But when requested for the servlet following error coming. could you please help me in resolving this , so that I can get desired response
