Hi, @ashwinikhaple,

If you are using SCR annotation, you can use @Reference annotation to inject the service into the servlet.

Something similar to this.

@Reference
MyService service;

You can refer to the below thread for more details.

 If you are using R6 annotation, Please refer to below URL for the same.

Hello @Rohit_Utreja Thank you for the reply. I have created servlet below how can I call MyService here?

import javax.servlet.Servlet;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import org.apache.sling.api.SlingHttpServletRequest;
import org.apache.sling.api.SlingHttpServletResponse;
import org.apache.sling.api.servlets.HttpConstants;
import org.apache.sling.api.servlets.SlingSafeMethodsServlet;
import org.osgi.framework.Constants;
import org.osgi.service.component.annotations.Component;

@Component(service = Servlet.class,
property={
Constants.SERVICE_DESCRIPTION + "=My Servlet",
"sling.servlet.paths="+ "/bin/demotraining/mypath"
})
public class MyServlet extends SlingSafeMethodsServlet
{

/**
*
*/
private static final long serialVersionUID = 3444770797464227100L;
MyService ms=new MyServiceImpl();

@Override
protected void doGet(SlingHttpServletRequest request, SlingHttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException
{
response.setHeader("Content-Type","text/html");
response.getWriter().print("<h1>Sample content using Sling servlet </h1>");
response.getWriter().print("<h2>My SlingServlet is registered using servlet path</h2>");
response.getWriter().close();
}
}

Hi @ashwinikhaple,

import javax.servlet.Servlet;

import javax.servlet.ServletException;

import org.apache.sling.api.SlingHttpServletRequest;

import org.apache.sling.api.SlingHttpServletResponse;

import org.apache.sling.api.servlets.HttpConstants;

import org.apache.sling.api.servlets.SlingSafeMethodsServlet;

import org.osgi.framework.Constants;

import org.osgi.service.component.annotations.Component;

import org.osgi.service.component.annotations.Reference;

@Component(service = Servlet.class,

property={

Constants.SERVICE_DESCRIPTION + "=My Servlet",

"sling.servlet.paths="+ "/bin/demotraining/mypath"

})

public class MyServlet extends SlingSafeMethodsServlet

{

/**

*

*/

private static final long serialVersionUID = 3444770797464227100L;

@Reference

private MyService myService;

@Override

protected void doGet(SlingHttpServletRequest request, SlingHttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException

{

response.setHeader("Content-Type","text/html");

response.getWriter().print("<h1>Sample content using Sling servlet </h1>");

response.getWriter().print("<h2>My SlingServlet is registered using servlet path</h2>");

response.getWriter().close();

}

}

Now, I am trying to render values returned by methods that are in MyService, So to render those in servlet what can I use? 

Below is MyService Methods code

public interface MyService
{
public String getMyFirstName();
public String getMyLastName();
public String getMyHobby();
}

Hi @ashwinikhaple 

Please see below:

public class MyServlet extends SlingAllMethodsServlet {

private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

@Reference
private transient MyService myservice;

@Override
protected void doPost(SlingHttpServletRequest request, SlingHttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {

myservice.anything();

}
}

Hope this helps!
Thanks!
