Multi image dialog - store items/images with image resource type

Avatar

Level 5

hello all,

 

I'm building multi image dialog, everything works fine except that when the dialog item (with image and some text) is stored I would like the item/s to be stored as sling:resourceType of core image so that in the HTL I can use something like, 

data-sly-resource="${ item @ resourceType = 'core/wcm/components/image/v2/image' } so that I can leverage responsive features of image component.

 

Currently I'm rendering image as, for which I'm not sure is a proper way and is this going to work on publishing server ?

<img src="${item.fileReference}"/>

Content item upon Author uploads image to dialog.

This is where (item1, item2, etc...) I would like to have one more property, sling:resourceType of core image .

 

 

Thank you

Solution was to add hidden field for resourceType in the dialog

@urosk  - As this is a multifield of image, so it will hold data in different node (like item0, item1,..) . Just check for resourceType in the parent node i.e items.

Thanks,

 

actually I'm not interested in knowing the node type, my question is how can I add sling:resourceType to node0, node1, etc...

 

If I have sling:resourceType of image on the nodes I could leverage, data-sly-resource="${ item @ resourceType = 'core/wcm/components/image/v2/image' } 

 

Without resourceType on the nodes, data-sly-resource won't render image properly.

you can try to add one more hidden field with default value along with shorttext and file e.g. type

 

name = ./sling:resourceType
value= core/wcm/components/image/v2/image
sling:resourceType=granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/hidden
