Archive AEM pages & exporting AEM content as zip

[prateekkumar]

Hello all - We have the following requirements related to archiving

1. Archive the pages in AEM each year. The archive is not supposed to have dynamic behaviour as in search etc but the pages should maintain still maintain links with each other.
2. Archive CSS and JS as well for that year and the pages should reference these files rather than the live ones
3. Export the archive as a zip(this zip will contain HTML pages and not the package manager zip which only AEM can understand) and this zip file will be stored for the record management tool and can also be downloaded by a user to view the HTML pages offline.

Has anyone implemented these functionalities in AEM?

Hi,

You can schedule a job that call a service that package the content as aem package and export.

Hi Arun,

Thanks for responding. However, as I wrote in my original post that the package manager will create a zip file that only AEM will understand. I need to extract/export HTML pages as a zip which anyone can download and unzip and view(for example when you save an online web page, it downloads the HTML, CSS, JS and related files).

Hi,

AEM provide a solution for something like this but I am not sure if it is applicable for multiple pages
