AEM 6.2 "fn:lowercase" is not working

Level 3

Dear Team,  

. How I can incoperate case sensitive search in AEM 6.2 with predicates.

I have tried below mentioned code unfortunately it doesn't work for me.But it is working fine in  5.6.1

Predicate authorNamePredicate = new Predicate("@authorName", "property");
authorNamePredicate.set(JcrPropertyPredicateEvaluator.OPERATION, JcrPropertyPredicateEvaluator.OP_LIKE);
                 authorNamePredicate
                     .set("property", "@fn:lower-case(@" + JcrConstants.JCR_CONTENT + "/" + "authorName" + ")");
                 authorNamePredicate.set("value", "%" + author.toLowerCase() + "%");
                 authorgroup.add(authorNamePredicate);

 

@fn:lower-case(" - is converted to fn:lower-case_x0028_  this is creating issue in AEM 6.2

 "/jcr:root/content/geo//*[@jcr:primaryType = 'cq:Page' and not(jcr:content/@hideInNav) and jcr:content/@jcr:title != 'Master Article' and jcr:like(fn:lower-case_x0028_/jcr:content/@authorName_x0029_, 'soumik dey')]/rep:excerpt(.) order by jcr:content/@cq:lastModified descending" This is the query it generating 

 

Thanks!

Hi 

Please have a look at this forum thread:-

Link:- http://help-forums.adobe.com/content/adobeforums/en/experience-manager-forum/adobe-experience-manage...

//  we never officially supported functions.  Hence not a bug. You have to file enhancement request to support xpath function. it is a known problem with the OAK repository

Please create a day care ticket for this.

 

Reference post telling about toupper/toLower in AEM :- http://www.wemblog.com/2013/04/how-to-create-custom-query-predicate-in.html

// You need to create a create custom query predicate.

I hope this would help you.

Thank you  kautuk , I have tried custom predicate in this case it throwing same error like "java.text.ParseException: Query". Am using  fn:lowercase with predicates not in query.  I have raised to  Adobe team internally  and they created Day care ticket for that. Can you confirm  xpath queries are not supported in AEM 6.2 ? It will helpful for us . Our search concept working with predicates, so we need to change entire search code if it not supported.

Thanks!,

Workaround: converted the query to SQL2 version in our code, this would work

Please create day care ticket!!

Thanks Kautuk, will raise a ticket and see if we can convert our search module to use sql2.

This is not the exact code which you would need but should help you to proceed.

}
return null;

Thanks edubey, appreciate your support. The problem that I have to use this approach is that our query is slightly complexed with multiple properties queried. It looks like below, With your code approach, I cant just use

caseinsensitive.property=jcr:content/@jcr:title

* caseinsensitive.value= queryString %.

Any idea how we can tackle this?

fulltext=tax

mainasset=true

1_group.1_group.path=/content/project_name

2_group.1_group.type=cq:Page
