?debugClientLibs=true in author page

[askdctm]

Hi All,

I appended ?debugClientLibs=true to the page http://localhost:4502/cf#/content/geometrixx-media/en/entertainment/daniel-falardeau.html in OOTB instance. But I am not able to understand what exactly is the use of it.

Any thoughts on this will be helpful.

It can be especially helpful for debugging javascript files because AEM will combine multiple .js files and in some cases, minify the js making it very difficult to troubleshoot/debug. Here is a good post of some url tricks for AEM: http://blogs.adobe.com/experiencedelivers/experience-management/cq_developer_tricks/

Hope this helps!

AEM merges all the java script files within a Client Library into a single js file.

Using  ?debugClientLibs=true will download all the js files individually making debugging easier.

Remove the /cf# in your url

Hi Feike,

Thank you for your reply.

I did remove the cf# from the url and try. However, could not notice any difference. I guess I am doing something wrong here.

Do you see in your HTML-source the js/css-files separately?

Hi Feike,

Will check on this and get back to you.

Hi

I tried debugClientLib=true on publish page path, And its trying to load the clientlibs from /apps directory and not able to load due to access restriction while it should load it from /etc.clientlibs path.

Any suggestion?
