Hello All - Is there a way to configure the externalizer for multiple publish domains? We have 4 domains in our project and would like to maintain the externalizer config based on run-modes. In the externalizer config it says, we need to specify publish followed by domain to specify the configs. i.e

publish www.example1.com

publish www.example2.com

publish www.example3.com

publish www.example4.com

How can I specify the configs. Since all are different domains.

Have you explored context-aware configuration for your problem? I believe you should be able to create separate configs for different paths of your repository.

@mayank_saklech1 - Actually the same content slice (i.e /content/test/en/) is used for all four sites. we cannot use context-aware here as the path is same.

Hi @test1234567,

I tried using the different domains but when try to call them using externalizer api then it is throwing error that
error: cannot find the symbol:
[ERROR] variable PUBLISH_CA
[ERROR] location: interface Externalizer

This is the piece of code that I am using :
externalizer.externalLink(resolver, Externalizer.PUBLISH_CA, "/my/page") + ".html";
can you please help me here.

Thanks,

Pavan

Hi @test1234567

You can define it in the OOTB configuration.i.e., with com.day.cq.commons.impl.ExternalizerImpl.xml and add the domain names. In your code you can read the configuration by passing the domain name.
