[mikezooz]

Hi All,

i want to read the count of the components which is repeated component.

Example:  RootContentNode/jcr:content/pageContent/header/

                                                                             /header_1

                                                                            /header_2  

The above example the header component repeated as three times, so i want to get the count as 3.

Hi Michael,

Try this.

        long count = 0;
        QueryManager qm;
        try {
            String compPath = "project/components/header";//example : project/components/header
            String searchQuery = "SELECT * FROM [nt:unstructured] AS s WHERE ISDESCENDANTNODE(["+currentPage.getPath()+"/jcr:content"+"]) and [sling:resourceType]='"+compPath+"'";
            qm = resourceResolver.adaptTo(Session.class).getWorkspace().getQueryManager();
            Query query = qm.createQuery(searchQuery, Query.JCR_SQL2);
            QueryResult result = query.execute();
            count = result.getRows().getSize();//component count
        } catch (RepositoryException e) {            
        }

You will have to write a custom logic (Purely Java) using JCR API to get the count of the repeated component

Logic 1: If you want to find the components which is repeated, then get the list of component names from apps and write a search query for each of the component name. Based on the result set see if you see multiple results for a same node.

Logic 2: Under /content loop through each of the node under jcr:content and see if the node *like* current node name exists or not. If yes, then that component is repeated in a given page node.
