SLING URL DECOMPOSITION

When the request url is lets say /content/myapp.html and sling:resourceType of myapp is /apps/myapp/components/myappcomponent.

 

Scenario 1: under myappcomponent, lets say there are  following files myappcomponent.html, myappcomponent.esp

 

In this case myappcomponent.html will be rendered.

 

Scenario 2: under myappcomponent, lets say there are  following files myappcomponent.esp

 

In this case myappcomponent.esp will be rendered.

 

Scenario 3: under myappcomponent, lets say there are  following files myappcomponent.json,myappcomponent.js,myappcomponent.txt

 

what will be rendered in this case????????

 

Question: is there any other fallback extensions which are supported in Sling if there is no applicable extension which is requested?

      You will get a 404 if

      * you are requesting a non-existing content node

      * if a resourcetype is given but does not exist

        @prashanthal 

        selectors have maximum priority and the more selectors are matched the highest the priority. If selectors are not matched then the extension gets priority.

         

        It follows the below pattern:

        {resourceTypeLabel}.{selectorString}.{requestMethod}.{requestExtension}.{scriptExtension}

        for more details ref. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-387

         

        Hope this helps.

          @manu_mathew_ @This example is demonstrating only .html and .esp as I mentioned in my query, not others

            For Scenario 3: I believe none of them will render.

            As far as I remember jsp,esp,html are suppported.

            for all other than html - the suffix is added to the script name

            eg: 

             /myappcomponent.js.esp

             /myappcomponent.json.esp

             /myappcomponent.txt.esp

              @prashanthal Please see below link for an example. Ideally combination of selector and extensions takes the highest priority. Same has been explained in this link:

                    @manjunathdj I searched SLING and ADOBE Documentations as well, not found it anywhere.

                      @prashanthal  - Are you looking to render Json or JS files?
