Hello,


I am trying to follow the following documentation

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-core-components/using/developing/data-layer/overview.html?lang=en

But I can't find the path indicated to perform the configuration /conf/<mySite>/sling:configs/ I only have the route /conf/<mySite>

How can I build sling:configs?

regards

Hi @juancarlos2022

sling:configs are related to Sling Context Aware Configurations. These configs allows to maintain your configurations which are specific to contexts.

e.g. If your company has global presence, you may have Social Media links specific to each country. To manage such links you can use Sling Context aware configurations.

More details on how to configure and use it, can be found here:

https://sling.apache.org/documentation/bundles/context-aware-configuration/context-aware-configuration.html

    Hi @juancarlos2022

    Can you let me know which archetype you are using to create the project? The latest archetype should be creating the structure for you. If not, you can still create the structure mentioned in the documentation you are referring.

    Hope this helps!

    Thanks,

      Hi @juancarlos2022

      Context-aware configurations are a feature of Sling. They are configurations that are related to a content resource or a resource tree and are leveraged by the Core Components to allow site-wide configurations.

      A number of Core Components features leverage context-aware configurations. All such configurations are located under the following node:

      • /conf/<my-site>/sling:configs/<my-configuration>

      Ref : https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-core-components/using/developing/context-aware-configs.html?lang=en
