Is it possible to iterate through an array (or another data type) using HTL?

[jayv25585659]

if yes, can you please provide an example or maybe a link to one?

Thanks!

Hi @jayv25585659 

You can use the logic in Model class in java and then call the model class in HTL to achieve the use case.

Please see the list feature that HTL provides:

Thanks!

- Are you saying I need to convert my array into a list of objects/model first? Thank you

Yes. You should convert array into List in Java using the Sling Model and use the model object to iterate it in HTL.

Hi @jayv25585659 ,

You can create a list using your array in sling model and then in htl using sightly you can iterate over the same

<ul data-sly-list="${model.yourList}">
    <li>${item.property}</li>
</ul>

Hope this helps!!

Thanks
