AEM 6.0 - .txt rendition from .xml asset

[rachelc73355576]

Hello!

Is it possible to create a .txt rendition from an asset that is an .xml file? If it is possible, how would one go about doing it?

Thanks!

Hi,

So you have dropped a XML file into AEM and now you have a nt:file node for this file? Have you tried to use the default renditions?

For example if you dropped the file int /content/dam/myfile.xml, you can try http://localhost:4502/content/dam/myfile.xml.txt

Cheers,
Jörg

Hi Jorg!

The default renditions (which are all image files – .png and .jpeg) are not being created for this file. Which is okay, because I want to create a rendition that is a .txt file.

Here's a screenshot of what I see in CRXDE Lite:

I tried what you suggested, and it didn't work for me. Do I have to create a custom rendition? If so, how do I do it?

I just tried on my local AEM 6.0 instance:

• drag a simple XML file from finder into DAM, now I have an asset /content/dam/upload-test.xml
• download it via curl/browser: http://localhost:4502/content/dam/upload-text.xml, which returns the exact value. As I used "curl", it is text now.

kind regards,
Jörg
