(AEM 6.3) clientlib below etc/designs/my-site not getting deleted

[sreenu539]

I have a clientlib "touch-ui-multifield" with category "cq.authoring.dialgo" at  etc/designs/my-site.

entry in filter.xml "

<filter root="/etc/designs/my-site"/>

I deleted touch-ui-multifield from code base and filter.xml has entry for "etc/designs/my-site" ,

mvn autoInstallPackage generated zip file that does not have deleted client lib folder.

After deploying the code, I still see the touch-ui-multifield in crx/de etc/designs/my-site , not getting deleted.

Any ideas on this. It is weird that , if i create a new client lib , deploy it and delete it ... changes reflecting onto crx/de properly but for this specific "touch-ui-multifield" (cq.authoring.dialog is the category) folder not getting deleted.

I am going to open a adobe ticket for this. If anyone has any idea, please share it.

Thanks.

Hi,

Can you please check your app package after build? check if package content design.

yes, etc/designs/my-site exist and the specific client lib folder deleted not part of zip package generated in target folder and I see "etc/designs/my-site" in filters of when i edit the package uploaded in crx/de.

If specific client lib folder is not part of package it should be deleted.

You can try with filters if helps

Try this..

Modify the filter mode in ".content.xml" under definition folder parallel to filter.xml -

<f0

            jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"

            mode="replace"

            root="/etc/designs/my-site"

            rules="[....]"/>

Filter modes per Jackrabbit Filevault - Workspace Filter

• “replace”This is the normal behavior. Existing content is replaced completely by the imported content, i.e. is overridden or deleted accordingly.
• “merge”Existing content is not modified, i.e. only new content is added and none is deleted or modified.
• “update”Existing content is updated, new content is added and none is deleted.
