Developing Client for Adobe Experience Manager

This article was written back a few years and was for AEM 5.6.  At the time - it worked perfectly. I will test now and see what occurs and post back the findings. 

Thanks a lot.
Sorry I've taken so long to reply
Will check and update by today.

I got this to work:

Try adding the jackrabbit-standalone-2.6.5.jar to the project's class path.

Also in the FileModel class- make sure you specify the correct user name and password:

 

//Retrieve member data from the JCR
    public List<members> getRepository(String url)
    {

        try {

            String aemUrl = "http://"+url +"/crx/server" ;
            //Create a connection to the CQ repository running on local host
            Repository repository = JcrUtils.getRepository(aemUrl);

            //Allocate memory to the List
            memberList = new ArrayList();

            //Create a Session
            javax.jcr.Session session = repository.login( new SimpleCredentials("admin", "admin".toCharArray()));

 

This will address the javax.jcr.RepositoryException: Unauthorized exception. I will update the article and put admin/admin. 

 

Just tried with the modification.

{ WriteExcel excel = new WriteExcel(); return excel.exportExcel(l)  ; } public FileModel(String dir) { setFileStats(-1, "localhost:4502") ; } // Implement the methods of the TableModel interface //  Only getRowCount(), getColumnCount() and getValueAt() are // required.  The other methods tailor the look of the table. public int getRowCount() { return l.size();} public int getColumnCount() { return titles.length; } public String getColumnName(int c) { return titles[c]; } public Class getColumnClass(int c) { return types[c]; } //Use the List data member to populate the JTable public Object getValueAt(int rowIndex, int columnIndex) { if(columnIndex==0){ return l.get(rowIndex).getNum(); } if(columnIndex==1){ return l.get(rowIndex).getScore(); } else if(columnIndex==2){ return l.get(rowIndex).getName(); } else if(columnIndex==3){ return l.get(rowIndex).getDisplay(); } return null; } //  called from the FileTable class public void setFileStats(int stars, String url) { //Set the community score level m_stars  = stars ; List<members> theList = getRepository(url); l = theList ; // Just in case anyone's listening... fireTableDataChanged(); } //Retrieve member data from the JCR public List<members> getRepository(String url) { try { String aemUrl = "http://"+url +"/crx/server" ; //Create a connection to the CQ repository running on local host Repository repository = JcrUtils.getRepository(aemUrl); //Allocate memory to the List memberList = new ArrayList(); //Create a Session //javax.jcr.Session session = repository.login( new SimpleCredentials("readonly", "readonly".toCharArray())); javax.jcr.Session session = repository.login( new SimpleCredentials("admin", "admin".toCharArray())); //Obtain the query manager for the session ... javax.jcr.query.QueryManager queryManager = session.getWorkspace().getQueryManager();

I'm getting another exception now.

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError at org.caesars.cq.explorer.FileModel.getRepository(FileModel.java:97) at org.caesars.cq.explorer.FileModel.setFileStats(FileModel.java:81) at org.caesars.cq.explorer.FileModel.<init>(FileModel.java:44) at org.caesars.cq.explorer.FileModel.<init>(FileModel.java:35) at org.caesars.cq.explorer.FileTable.<init>(FileTable.java:37) at org.caesars.cq.explorer.FileTable.main(FileTable.java:119) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:57) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:606) at com.intellij.rt.execution.application.AppMain.main(AppMain.java:144) Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: unknown type: 10 at javax.jcr.PropertyType.nameFromValue(PropertyType.java:92) at org.apache.jackrabbit.commons.JcrUtils.<clinit>(JcrUtils.java:840) ... 11 more

This is my environment.

1. jackrabbit-standalone-2.6.5.jar in class path

2. AEM 5.6 is running in port 4502 with admin/admin credentials

Send me an email at scottm@adobe.com. I can setup a session with you to solve this. 

Finally I'm able to execute the the application by adding

<dependency> <groupId>org.apache.jackrabbit</groupId> <artifactId>jackrabbit-core</artifactId> <version>2.6.5</version> </dependency>

 in POM, replacing the original 1.0.

But, as the application tries to retrieve "screen_name" and "displayName" I'm getting the following exception.

Connected to the target VM, address: '127.0.0.1:62422', transport: 'socket' javax.jcr.PathNotFoundException: screen_name at org.apache.jackrabbit.jcr2spi.NodeImpl.getProperty(NodeImpl.java:474) at org.caesars.cq.explorer.FileModel.getProfileNode(FileModel.java:178) at org.caesars.cq.explorer.FileModel.getRepository(FileModel.java:128) at org.caesars.cq.explorer.FileModel.setFileStats(FileModel.java:81) at org.caesars.cq.explorer.FileModel.<init>(FileModel.java:44) at org.caesars.cq.explorer.FileModel.<init>(FileModel.java:35) at org.caesars.cq.explorer.FileTable.<init>(FileTable.java:37) at org.caesars.cq.explorer.FileTable.main(FileTable.java:119)

I assume that the the key "screen_name" might got changed in the long run. From where can I found those changes?

This was code against an old example user JCR schema. I will update the code in the article.
