Hi everyone,

 

I have a requirement to fetch the number of versions present in an Asset using a servlet.

Can anyone please provide some references?

 

Thanks in advance.

Hello @kaibalyajena_123 

As I understood your requirement, you need the number of versions created for a given asset.

 

You can use VersionHistory Interface to get all the versions and their details. Please refer below doc link for available methods.

Do let me know if you face any issues or you have different requirement?
Hope it helps.

If you want you use JCR API then below code snippet you can use -

final VersionManager versionManager = node.getSession().getWorkspace().getVersionManager(); final VersionHistory versionHistory = versionManager.getVersionHistory(node.getPath()); final VersionIterator versionIter = versionHistory.getAllVersions();

 if you want you use Resource API then you can use 

AssetVersionManager versionManager = resolver.adaptTo(AssetVersionManager.class); Iterator<AssetVersion> versions = versionManager.listVersions("/content/dam/sample.jpg");

    Hello @kaibalyajena_123 

     

     

         eg:
     AssetVersionManager versionManager = resolver.adaptTo(AssetVersionManager.class);

     // to get existing versions
     Iterator<AssetVersion> versions = versionManager.listVersions("/path/to/asset/document.pdf");
     ...

     

    you can readily use the AssetVersionManager API.

    - Get path of asset in servlet

    - Get resourceResolver from Request

    - Adapt to AssetVersionManager 

    - List all versions of the related asset./
