Setting value is multi values property through java code

Hey Guys,

Thanks for your valuable information. It was very helpful. At-last i found solution to my problem. I am connecting CQ remotely through my java code and i am not using Sling or OSGI . Because my application is not running in any of the CQ servers and it's running remotely in apache tomcat server. So i am using only JCR api to connect to CQ server and modifying the contents. Here is the code which used for tagging.

Node jcrNode=session.getNode("/etc/tags/default");

Node my_casecustom=jcrNode.addNode("my_casecustom","cq:Tag");

jcrNode.addMixin("mix:referenceable");

session.refresh(true);

    session.save();

    my_casecustom.setProperty("jcr:title", "custom,my case");

    my_casecustom.setProperty("jcr:title.en_us", "custom,my case");

    my_casecustom.setProperty("sling:resourceType", "cq/tagging/components/tag");

session.refresh(true);

    session.save();

After i added CQ:TAGS property into my pagecontent node and it's settings the values to corresponding node.

Hi Arun

     For tag related operations, you should use tag manager API TagManager ("The Adobe AEM Quickstart and Web Application.") 

To get a TagManager object , you can do the following

Please refer sample codes to work with TagManagers here Java Code Example com.day.cq.tagging.TagManager

Java Code Example com.day.cq.tagging.TagManager

Thanks

We have a discussion on how to get a TagManager API object in a HTL Java component here -- Adobe Experience Manager Help | Developing HTML Template Language Components that search for Adobe Experience Manager Co…

I will check that . Before doing that i am trying to access tag manager api but can't get access to getTagManager method.

I can't able to call get TagManager method using the JCRTAG manager resolver factory. It's throwing me error. Here is my code

JcrTagManagerFactory.getTagManager(session); //throwing compile time error

Can you please confirm that your tags are already created before saving in cq:tags property. Properties will not save if tags are not present.

or you can also use tagManager api to set tags

void setTags(Resource resource, Tag[] tags)

void setTags(Resource resource, Tag[] tags,boolean autoSave)

Hi Scott.

     We cannot set tags as normal properties. Those needs to be handled using TagManager API

Edit :- Correcting my answer

Arun,

     Could you please check if the tags you are trying to set is already present under /etc/tags ? If not your values will never set to cq:tags property

Thanks

I agree with you. But In my case i am setting value to the "cq:tags" property.  whenever i am setting the values using the above code, the value becomes empty in the cq:tags property.

Do we need to do in a different way to set multivalue to the property cq:tags?

That is correct - you need to use an array.
