Issue while migrating HTML from JSON object into text component in AEM

hi ,

 

I am creating a migration tool in Java , to migrate content from another CMS into AEM pages. The data is in JSON format which consists of some metadata and HTML areas. 

I am converting the HTML areas into text component after migration in AEM , however the data is not displaying properly on the page. 

I see some weird characters after decoding the HTML in UTF-8  like �?? 

Is there a way to handle this in java ? 

I tried using StringEscapeUtils and JSOUP without any success.

 

Thanks,

Sam

      Hello @samikshaa223429 ,

       

      As per my understating, there are some special un-standard characters in your HTML areas that are non-ASCII chars. You need to remove that special character while converting from HTML area to text component text by replacing all the non-ASCII chars to empty. Something like below,

       

           String  textContent = htmlContent.replaceAll("[^\\p{ASCII}]", "");

       

      Thanks,

      Venkat.M

          By which means are you getting the data? If it is a servlet then you can set the encoding format like below:

          response.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");

           

          Again if you are displaying some text and see some html tags in it which should not come, then you need to add @2941342='html' just after the text content.

           

          If the above doesn't help let me know how you are getting the json from the java code.

            hi Ibshikha ,

             

            Can you provide details about adding @2941342 = html to the text content , is there a way of adding it programmtically in the JCR?

            As I am building the pages programmatically...

             

            Yes , I am using a servlet and I have already set the Character Encoding (UTF-8) at the response level, however this does not resolve the issue. I am using the below to fetch the JSON from API .

            StringBuilder json = new StringBuilder();
            url = new URL(src);
            URLConnection tc = url.openConnection(); 
            BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(url.openStream()),"");
            String line1 = in.readLine();
            json.append(line1);
            return json.toString().trim();
            The above method is used to fetch the JSON into StringBuffer from API. The URL is passed to the URL

             

            Please let me know if you have a solution to try.

             

            Thanks,

            Samiksha
