Use Experience Fragments in AEM Content Components

Sorry I lost this thread.

Hero - AEM content component with Sling model

Panel1- Content Fragment

Panel2 - Content Fragment

is there anyway by which Panel1 and Panel2 paths be added to hero component? Such that Hero component Sling model can read data from these content fragments and construct the JSON?

Is this possible?

Are you saying that panel can be a content fragment

Hero component- with sling model can read the panel JCR data?

How do I associate Hero component with Panel Content frgamnet path?

Both are 2 independent components on the same page?

Hero sling model - provided you have used Java code - can read the JCR via the JCR API or QUeryBuilder API.

Anyone tries content fragments?

Pointers would really help.

Okay so what I am getting is:

Experience fragments is a group of AEM components.

I cannot associate Experience fragment as such with any sling model like I do for AEM content component.

This is noted.

How about Content fragments?

1. I have a content fragment - panel1, created backed by content fragment model

2. On home.html I will have Hero component and COntent Fragment component.

3. Content Fragmnet component will browse for panel1

4. Is there any way Hero sling model can read panel1? Or panle1 path can be fed into Hero component?

Experience Fragments are simply a collection of other AEM components (that can be named) and the AEM Components can be dropped onto the Experience Fragment ( like a components can be dropped onto a page).

If you need to query the JCR and pull that data and display the data on the front end  - you can write a HTL/Sling Model component that queries data and displays it. Name that component myHTL. THen you can drop that component into an Experience Fragment (If you want) or directly onto page.

Purhaps you should look at writing an HTL component that uses Sling Models and HTL code as opposed to Experience Fragments. Experience Fragments are not meant to read Java code like HTL components are.

Using experience fragments - No I am not getting. I am not sure how I use experience fragments in this use-case. Thats the #1 under issues that I described.

I have my home.html -> I added Hero component and 2 Experience Fragment Component. Each of the experience fragment components has the panel information which needs to be read in SLing Model of Hero.

How can I do that?

Using the SLing API, are you getting the result set you need?
