Mentioning Multiple paths in EventHandler class

Hello All,

 

I have CustomEventHandler class which implements  EventHandler interface.

handleEvent method is called during page activation, deactivation, deletion time. Here, I need to mention the page path. I mean if a page is present under /content/abc/project/en then only my custom event handler should trigger. I need to mention multiple page path.   /content/abc/project/en,   /content/xyz/project/en

Any help in this?

Hi @arunpatidar 

Checked your code. Still have confusion.

As of now, I have used: EventConstants.EVENT_FILTER + "=(paths=/content/abc/myArticle/*)"

 

Now, how to mention 2 paths here:

/content/abc/myArticle/*
/content/abc/newArticle/*

 

Since, your code has:  EventConstants.EVENT_FILTER + "(&" + "(path=/content/we-retail/us/en/*/jcr:content) (|("
+ SlingConstants.PROPERTY_CHANGED_ATTRIBUTES + "=*jcr:title) " + "(" + ResourceChangeListener.CHANGES
+ "=*jcr:title)))" })


here you go

|(paths=/content/abc/myArticle/*)(paths=/content/abc/newArticle/*)

      Preferably use ResourceChangeListener

       

      It will also allow you to use multiple paths

        Hi @aanchal-sikka 

        ResourceChangeListener logic sounds interesting. But in my case, if I use implements EventHandler, then I can write my logic for 

        if ReplicationActionType.ACTIVATE :  call add customMethod();

        if ReplicationActionType.DEACTIVATE :  call customDelete Method

        if ReplicationActionType.DELETE:  call customDelete Method

        So, How can I call my method if i implement ResourceChangeListener.

        I can see only one method.

          Hello @mahesh_gunaje 

           

          Please refer to this blog https://aemhints.com/2020/11/08/event-listener-in-aem-6-5/

           

          It uses Event Handler with multiple Paths.
