Not able to make use of SlingHttpServletRequest in Sling Model in AEM 6.3

Hi Scott/Feike,

In component model class, was trying to get request object to use for api resolver.map(). However, now using resolver.map that takes in a single argument rather than the one along with request.

However, it would be helpful if you can let us know how can we take request object in Component model class[in case we need it sometime in the future.]

Where you able to succesfuuly compile this code? I have never tried to make use of a Request object in a Sling Model. Only a Sling Servlet. What are you trying to do?

Feike Visser​ - can you look here when you can - thxs

The snippet shared by Feike doesn't help me with the use-case I have.

Hi zeeshank15007365,

Thank you for your reply.

To get the request Object to my existing class which is working fine, I did the below :

1] Added request to adaptables which just had resource earlier : @Model(adaptables = { Resource.class, SlingHttpServletRequest.class })

2] Tried with

@Self

private SlingHttpServletRequest slingHttpServletRequest;

and

By Name

private SlingHttpServletRequest request;

but no luck. Not sure what is it that I am missing.

Will try the constructor method too and let you know how it goes. Thanks again for replying on this query of mine.

You can achieve sling request object by different ways :

@Self

private SlingHttpServletRequest slingHttpServletRequest;

By Constructor

@Model(adaptables= SlingHttpServletRequest.class)

public class TestModel {

  private final SlingHttpServletRequest request;

  public TestModel(SlingHttpServletRequest r){

          this.request = r;

}

By Name

private SlingHttpServletRequest request;
