Publish server event for receiving replication?

On a publish server, is there any Sling event you can listen to for receiving replication data??

The sling ReplicationAction only seems to fire on the source server (not the target).

Thanks!

Looking at the Events web console plugin, I have a guess why this isn't working for you. The event generated on the sending side (author) is under the topic com/day/cq/replication. The event generated on the receiving side (publish) is under the topic com/adobe/granite/replication. These are represented by the constants ReplicationAction.EVENT_TOPIC and ReplicationEvent.EVENT_TOPIC respectively.

Hi,

There is a ReplicationEvent generated on publish when a replication is received. I believe this was added in 5.6, but I could be wrong. It is definitely there in 6.0.

If you are going to work at the JCR lvl and events - we have a how to general article for working with AEM and JCR events: http://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/using/events.html.

    Thanks Justin - I think this is what we are looking for.

    Can you please advise:  When you say "Events web console plugin" - what Console item is this?  Is this a separate plugin, and if so, where do I get it?

    Kind Regards,

    Tim

    On the Publish server we want to detect content that is published (or a Flush request potentially), and perform some additional tasks in that zone.  We don't want to create a Replication agent for Flush requests

    Your use is not clear for a need. Anyhow you need to use jcr lower level or cq workflow level[1] Or own replication reciever(I won't recommend this).  An example with workflow at [2] for damassets & can modify script, config per your requirement.
