Detect instance runmode programmatically in AEM as cloud service

Hello,

Please check https://medium.com/adobetech/custom-runmodes-on-aem-as-a-cloud-service-79b757f51a6b for custom runmodes (not to be used or used cautiously) which discusses about some good practices.

It seems to provide an example of refactored code.

From the reference above, we can try this

@Property(label = "Environment Type",
        description = "Should be dev/stage/prod/local - default is local")
private static final String ENVIRONMENT_TYPE = "environment.type";
private String environmentType;

@Activate
@Modified
protected void activate(final Map<String, String> config) {
    environmentType = PropertiesUtil.toString(config.get(ENVIRONMENT_TYPE), DEFAULT_ENVIRONMENT_TYPE);
    log.debug("Environment Type Service Activated with Environment Type of {}", environmentType);
}



public String getEnvironmentType() {
    return environmentType;
}

Hi @rampai 

The solution is still in planning phase and no API is exposed like SlingSettingService to get the run mode.

In the mean time you can create an OSGi service and set the run mode config value in OSGi configuration and read it in your code. That should resolve the issue.

Here is an article which will give a good idea:

Thanks!
