Developing using Eclipse AEM plugin and Brackets for AEM 6.0

[#1]

Hi,

I have setup project using AEM eclipse plugin (http://eclipse.adobe.com/aem/dev-tools/) and it created below sub modules :

• core
• ui.apps
• ui.content
• it.tests
• it.launcher

This all files were synced to repository after project creation.

As components needs to be developed in sightly, I opened ui.apps project folder in brackets after installing sightly plugin and applied project settings for localhost along with username and password .

Now if I edit and save any component .html file of myapp in brackets, it deletes all nodes below /apps/myapp, also it deletes current component .html file that is saved.

Only nodes that remains are the nodes till the path to current component node.

Appreciate if any one can help to resolve this issue.

Thanks,

Faizaan Shaikh

Hi Faizaan,

Please report any issues you have with the AEM Sightly Brackets Extension at [0]. Please don't forget to give details about the tools you use, like OS and version, Brackets version, AEM Sightly Brackets Extension version.

For the record I cannot reproduce this with Brackets sprint 42 and AEM Sightly Brackets Extension 0.0.4.

Thanks,

Radu

You need to open the folder that contains the jcr_root folder (as well as the META-INF folder). In the case of projects created with the "AEM Sample Multi-Module Project" archetype, like the Eclipse plugin does, then you have to open ui.apps/src/main/content in Brackets.

If you don't open the right folder, then the synchronization of your content within Brackets with your AEM instance doesn't work.

Hi Radu,

Appreciate your help !

Can you please let me know which folder you opened in brackets i.e ui.apps folder or jcr:root folder.

Does that makes any difference if we open ui.apps or jcr:root folder.

Thanks,
