Hi @kiranc13433869 

You can use SlingSettingService to check author or publish mode. Check this sample java code if it helps:

import com.day.cq.commons.Externalizer;

// If using in sling model
    @Inject
    SlingSettingsService slingSettingsService;

private boolean isAuthorRunMode() {
    Set<String> runModes = slingSettingsService.getRunModes();
    return runModes.contains(Externalizer.AUTHOR);
}

Hope it helps!

Thanks!

what is the best replacement for this, given that this class is now deprecated?

You can check the runmodes from http://localhost:6530/system/console/status-slingsettings

or

directly from tools->operation->system overview
