Hi @JakeCham,

 

Kindle refer to the below steps to embed core components if it's first time in your project.

1. Add dependencies to parent pom xml

<dependencyManagement>
  <dependencies>
    ...
    <dependency>
      <groupId>com.adobe.cq</groupId>
      <artifactId>core.wcm.components.all</artifactId>
      <type>zip</type>
      <version>2.20.0</version>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>

2. Add dependencies to your target maven module.

In this example, we will target all/pom.xml

<dependencies>
    ...
    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.adobe.cq</groupId>
        <artifactId>core.wcm.components.core</artifactId>
        <scope>provided</scope>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

3. Configure com.day.jcr.vault’s <subPackages><subPackage> to target maven module

In this example, we will target all/pom.xml

<plugin>
    <groupId>com.day.jcr.vault</groupId>
    <artifactId>content-package-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <extensions>true</extensions>
    <configuration>
        ...
        <subPackages>
            <subPackage>
                <groupId>com.adobe.cq</groupId>
                <artifactId>core.wcm.components.all</artifactId>
                <filter>true</filter>
            </subPackage>
        </subPackages>
        <targetURL>http://${crx.host}:${crx.port}/crx/packmgr/service.jsp</targetURL>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

 

When you said to update, presumably it should be already in your project's pom in this case, find out the pom's as mentioned above and update to the latest version of core components as per need: https://github.com/adobe/aem-core-wcm-components/releases

 

Hope that helps!

Regards,

Santosh

Hi @JakeCham 
Yes, it is recommned to not deploy anything manually in AEM.

 

Core components can be updated/install through POM. example : https://github.com/arunpatidar02/com.aemlab.junitapp/blob/6303332e9e02e78c9ecdedcac6c01b6ebc6192a6/a...

Hi @arunpatidar Thank you for replying! 

 

1. Should it be added inside org.apache.jackrabbit plugin ?
2. embedding below would be enough to download and build the latest core package ?

 <embedded>
<groupId>com.adobe.cq</groupId>
<artifactId>core.wcm.components.content</artifactId>
<type>zip</type>
<target>/apps/JunitApp-vendor-packages/application/install</target>
</embedded>

embedding below would be enough to download and build the latest core package, make sure you have dependencies added in the dependency section.

 

You can check the reference project's POM which I have shared.

Could you please check what dou you have inside /apps/JunitApp-vendor-packages/application/install?
You might have missed the filter changes

Hi @JakeCham 
Can you try deploying https://github.com/arunpatidar02/com.aemlab.junitapp ?

This project has core version 2.7.0 but you can try update in POM before you do installation ?

Please try "mvn clean install -PautoInstallPackage" command
