HI @anjanam ,
To programmatically obtain the same OSGi Configuration JSON available in the Cloud Manager Developer Console, you can leverage AEM's existing APIs and services. While the Cloud Manager API itself may not provide a direct endpoint for this, AEM exposes several endpoints and APIs that you can use to access OSGi configurations. Here's how you can approach this:
1. Using the OSGi Web Console API
AEM provides an OSGi Web Console API that you can use to access configuration details. This API can be accessed via HTTP requests to the AEM instance. The relevant endpoint for fetching configurations is /system/console/configMgr.
You can make a GET request to this endpoint and parse the resulting HTML to extract configuration details. However, parsing HTML is not the most robust solution. Instead, you might want to use the JSON format provided by the Apache Felix Web Management Console.
2. Using Sling's JMX MBean Server
AEM's OSGi configurations can also be accessed via the JMX MBean Server. Here's a high-level approach to creating a custom servlet to fetch these configurations in JSON format:
Step-by-Step Implementation:
Create a Custom Servlet: Write a servlet that registers at a specific path and is accessible via HTTP. This servlet will use the JMX API to fetch OSGi configurations.
Fetch OSGi Configurations via JMX: Use the JMX MBean Server to query the configuration details. The ConfigurationAdmin MBean can be used for this purpose.
Convert Configuration to JSON: Collect the configuration details and convert them into a JSON format.
Here’s an example of how you can implement such a servlet:
import org.apache.felix.scr.annotations.Component;
import org.apache.felix.scr.annotations.Properties;
import org.apache.felix.scr.annotations.Property;
import org.apache.felix.scr.annotations.Service;
import org.apache.sling.api.SlingHttpServletRequest;
import org.apache.sling.api.SlingHttpServletResponse;
import org.apache.sling.api.servlets.SlingAllMethodsServlet;
import org.json.JSONObject;
import org.osgi.framework.BundleContext;
import org.osgi.framework.FrameworkUtil;
import org.osgi.service.cm.ConfigurationAdmin;
import javax.servlet.Servlet;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Dictionary;
import java.util.Enumeration;
@Component
@Service(Servlet.class)
@Properties({
@Property(name = "sling.servlet.paths", value = "/bin/osgi-config")
})
public class OsgiConfigServlet extends SlingAllMethodsServlet {
@Override
protected void doGet(SlingHttpServletRequest request, SlingHttpServletResponse response) throws IOException {
BundleContext bundleContext = FrameworkUtil.getBundle(this.getClass()).getBundleContext();
ConfigurationAdmin configAdmin = bundleContext.getService(bundleContext.getServiceReference(ConfigurationAdmin.class));
JSONObject configs = new JSONObject();
try {
for (String pid : configAdmin.getFactoryConfigurationPids()) {
Dictionary<String, Object> config = configAdmin.getConfiguration(pid).getProperties();
JSONObject configJson = new JSONObject();
Enumeration<String> keys = config.keys();
while (keys.hasMoreElements()) {
String key = keys.nextElement();
configJson.put(key, config.get(key));
}
configs.put(pid, configJson);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
response.setStatus(SlingHttpServletResponse.SC_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR);
response.getWriter().write("Error fetching configurations: " + e.getMessage());
return;
}
response.setContentType("application/json");
response.getWriter().write(configs.toString());
}
}
3. Using AEM's System Console Configuration Endpoint
You can also write a script or use tools like curl to fetch configuration details directly from the /system/console/configMgr endpoint. For example:
curl -u admin:admin http://localhost:4502/system/console/configMgr/.json
4. Monitoring and Alerting on Configuration Drift
Once you have a way to programmatically fetch the OSGi configuration JSON, you can set up a monitoring system to compare the current configuration with a baseline. If any differences are detected, you can trigger alerts.
- Custom Servlet: A custom servlet can be implemented to programmatically fetch OSGi configurations using the JMX API or the ConfigurationAdmin service.
- System Console Endpoint: Use the /system/console/configMgr/.json endpoint to fetch configurations.
- Monitoring Setup: Implement a monitoring system to compare current configurations with a baseline and alert on drift.
By creating a custom servlet, you can tailor the functionality to your specific needs and integrate it seamlessly with your existing monitoring and alerting systems.
