Where should I create my Sling Servlets?

[j2rojasr]

Hi. I have the following doubt I do not know which is the correct folder where I should create my java Servlets and Sling Servlets. I'm a little confused. I'd appreciate your help.

At the moment I have been creating the servlets here:

This is a screenshot of my CRX:

And this is my <build> tag in D:\myproject\core\pom.xml

- What I do is place myself in "D:\my-project\core" and execute "mvn clean install" in the console

- I upload the .zip created in "D:\my-project\core\target" to AEM through the link http://localhost:4502/system/console/bundles

Greetings!

Never create Java service/Sling Servlets in CRXDE lite. That is an outdated practice. Always code your Servlets in your Maven generated projects.

Hello smacdonald2008, thank you very much for your response.

If I understand correctly, then it is correct to create Java service/Sling Servlets in that folder called /core/servlets of my project.

Correct - you create a Sling Servlet in Eclipse here  -- under the <packageName>.core.servlets:

Then you deploy your project and the Sling Servlet is deployed as part of the OSGi bundle.

Hope this helps.
