AEM 6.5.12.0 - Content Fragments Select Tokens or Placeholders in Rich Text Editor by Sreekanth Choudry Nalabotu

Abstract

Goal
Add a Plugin in Content Fragments RTE (Rich Text Editor) for search and selecting tokens. These tokens are replaced dynamically by the consuming application with real data in a AEM headless scenario...

Solution
1) Create the datasource /apps/eaem-sites-rte-secure-tokens/token-ds/token-ds.jsp for reading tokens from /var/eaem/tokens

<%@include file="/libs/granite/ui/global.jsp"%>

<%@ page import="com.adobe.granite.ui.components.ds.DataSource" %>
<%@ page import="com.adobe.granite.ui.components.ds.ValueMapResource" %>
<%@ page import="org.apache.sling.api.wrappers.ValueMapDecorator" %>
<%@ page import="com.adobe.granite.ui.components.ds.SimpleDataSource" %>
<%@ page import="org.apache.commons.collections.iterators.TransformIterator" %>
<%@ page import="org.apache.commons.collections.Transformer" %>
<%@ page import="org.apache.sling.api.resource.*" %>
<%@ page import="java.util.*" %>

<%
String TOKEN_PATH = "/var/eaem/tokens";

final ResourceResolver resolver = resourceResolver;

Resource tokenPath = resolver.getResource(TOKEN_PATH);

DataSource ds = new SimpleDataSource(new TransformIterator(tokenPath.getValueMap().entrySet().iterator(), new Transformer() {
public Object transform(Object o) {
Map.Entry entry = (Map.Entry) o;

if(entry.getKey().equals("jcr:primaryType")){
return null;
}

ValueMap vm = new ValueMapDecorator(new HashMap<String, Object>());

vm.put("value", entry.getKey());
vm.put("text", entry.getValue());

return new ValueMapResource(resolver, new ResourceMetadata(), "nt:unstructured", vm);
}
}));

request.setAttribute(DataSource.class.getName(), ds);
%>


2) Create the page /apps/eaem-sites-rte-secure-tokens/rte-tokens for Token Search UI
