Synchronize adaptive form folder in eclipse

[ramandeep]

Hi Guys,

I am not able to synch the adaptive form folder in eclipse. I have working form folder 'my-folder' under '/content/dam/formsanddocuments/<my-folder>' and I want to synch the folder in eclipse. I follow this link for the same;

https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/adobe-experience-manager-forms/how-to-add-aem-6-2-f...

but no luck.

Here are steps I followed;

Step 1: Create a maven project.

Step 2: Add a filter for my form location on 'ui.content/src/main/content/META-INF/vault/filter.xml'.

Step 3: Right-click the ui.content project and select the 'Import from Server' option from the eclipse.

Now I have 'formsanddocuments' folder under content in eclipse project but I am not able to see my form folder.

Please let me know if I am missing anything.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @ramandeep,

You can use vlt tool to sync content to/from AEM Server.

Please refer to these links https://docs.adobe.com/content/help/en/experience-manager-64/developing/devtools/ht-vlttool.html

https://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/using/creating-aem-project-using-eclipse.html

You can use plugins available with the IDEs to push and pull content from AEM

For eclipse, you can use ValutClipse plugin.

Here are the steps to configure the plugin http://www.aemcq5tutorials.com/tutorials/configure-filevault-vlt-tool-in-cq/

Thank you @ChitraMadan, I will check and use ValutClipse. Thank you once again.

@ChitraMadan, I just checked and found that I do not have Vault cli in the ..\crx-quickstart\opt (I am using AEM-6.5) which is required to link in the Vault Directory option in eclipse settings. Then I tried to download the vault zip file from ../org/apache/jackrabbit/vault/vault-cli/3.0.0/vault-cli-3.0.0-bin.zip, and able to access vault through cli but the same cli folder having bin directory is not recognizable from eclipse. I am getting 'please correct the directory for vault the current directory is incorrect' error in eclipse. Can you please guide me further in this regard. Thanks

Hi @ ramandeep, try with version 3.2.8

@ChitraMadan, thank you for replying. I tried version 3.2.8 but no luck. Still getting 'please correct the directory for vault the current directory is incorrect' error.
