Page Replication

[v1101]

Hello Community - Need your suggestion to implement the solution for replicating the page. We have a admin page in author instance and it is only internal to the authors. In our admin page, we will be having a drop-down selection to select the page and also there will be a button next to it. Once the page is selected and click the button, the respective should be replicated to publish instance. Please provide your suggestion on this.

Hi @v1101

We have Replicator Service methods to activate the provided page path. please find below code for the same.

Javascript

Pass the page path(ex: with attribute name "pagePath") which author has selected to Servlet in AJAX request.

Servlet:

Create new servlet & service user with required permission.

public class ReplicationServlet extends SlingAllMethodsServlet {
    @Reference
    private Replicator replicator;

    @Reference
    private ResourceResolverFactory resourceResolverFactory;

    private static final String PAGE_PATH = "pagePath";

    private static final String SERVICE_USER = "replication-user"; //create new service user with required permission
    private static final Map<String, Object> SERVICE_USER_DETAILS = ImmutableMap
            .of(ResourceResolverFactory.SUBSERVICE, (Object) SERVICE_USER);

    private static final Logger LOGGER = LoggerFactory.getLogger(ReplicationServlet.class);

    @Override
    protected void doGet(SlingHttpServletRequest request, SlingHttpServletResponse response) throws IOException {
        String pagePath = request.getParameter(PAGE_PATH); //page path without .html extension

        if(StringUtils.isNotEmpty(pagePath)) {
            try (ResourceResolver resourceResolver = resourceResolverFactory.getServiceResourceResolver(SERVICE_USER_DETAILS)) {
                if (resourceResolver != null) {
                    Session session = request.getResourceResolver().adaptTo(Session.class);

                    if (session != null && replicator != null) {
                        replicator.replicate(session, ReplicationActionType.ACTIVATE, pagePath);
                    }
                }
            } catch (LoginException e) {
                LOGGER.error("LoginException occurred", e);
            } catch (ReplicationException e) {
                LOGGER.error("ReplicationException occurred", e);
            }
        }
    }
}
