Hi,

Please create a node from CRXDE and import it to Eclipse by AEM server.

This is the best practice we followed.

This is a good idea; however, it will be great if we can create nodes from outside of CRXDE....

Also, could you please give some reference of steps on how to `import it to Eclipse by AEM server`?

you can check how to use  development tools for AEM project(create a node, debug, etc): Development Tools

Some examples:

• Getting Started with AEM Sites Part 1 - Project Setup
• Getting Started with AEM Sites Part 2 - Creating a Base Page and Template  (you can see on this page a video creating node-templates and pages as you need it)

Note: In my experience Brackets it could be tricky and hard in some occasion but the other tools works very well for all team member.

You can do it. It is always achievable , but the error message displayed  seems like your eclipse is not able to communicate to the server. Moreover, if there is any error in the type of the node, it will always throw error and won't let you create one.

Here's a larger screenshot of the issue which shows that the server is connected and synchronized.

Please suggest.

Hi Akash,

If you see that type of error you can fix by this below example screenshot.

Here this is beautifully explained here: Getting Started with AEM Sites Part 2 - Creating a Base Page and Template . I have got the same issue and fixed by using above screenshot.

Hope this helps!!

Hello,

Most of the times, for some unknown reason, it is not possible to create a node from Eclipse.  The steps to create nodes on Eclipse project are as follows:-

Step 1: Create Template in CRXde as usual.

Step 2: Import in Eclipse project.  Right-click on the jcr:root or rep:root folder and click on Import from server...

Additional notes :

1. AEM Server needs to be setup on Eclipse environment. (Eclipse AEM Plugin is available for that)
2. Suggest you to save your changes before 'importing' as those changes may be irreversible.

Good Luck.
