INSTALLING ADOBE EXPERIENCE MANAGER
To install an AEM instance for developing your website, follow the instructions for setting up a deployment
environment with author and publish instances, or perform a generic installation. The generic installation
involves downloading the AEM Quickstart JAR file, placing the license.properties file in the same directory as
the JAR file, and double-clicking the JAR file.
After you have installed AEM, access the CRXDE Lite development environment by clicking the CRXDE Lite
link on the Welcome page:
NOTE
The URL of CRXDE Lite for an AEM authoring instance that is installed locally using the default
port is http://localhost:4502/crx/de/.
SETTING UP THE PROJECT STRUCTURE IN CRXDE LITE
Use CRXDE Lite to create the mywebsite application structure in the repository:
1.
2.
3.
4.
In the tree on the left side of CRXDE Lite, right-click the /apps folder and click Create > Create Folder.
In the Create Folder dialog, type mywebsite as the folder name and click OK.
Right-click the /apps/mywebsite folder and click Create > Create Folder. In the Create Folder dialog,
type components as the folder name and click OK.
Right-click the /apps/mywebsite folder and click Create > Create Folder. In the Create Folder dialog,
type templates as the folder name and click OK.
The structure in the tree should now look something like this:
Click Save All.
SETTING UP THE DESIGN
In this section, you create the design for your application using the Designer tool. The design provides CSS
and image resources for your web site.
NOTE
Click the following link to download mywebsite.zip. The archive contains the static.css and image
files for your design.

1.
On the AEM Welcome page, click Tools. (http://localhost:4502/libs/cq/core/content/welcome.html)
2.
In the folder tree, select the Designs folder and then click New > New Page. Type mywebsite as the
title and click Create.
3.
If the mywebsite item does not appear in the table, refresh the tree or the table.
4.
Using WebDAV access to the URL at http://localhost:4502, copy the sample static.css file and images
folder from the downloaded mywebsite.zip file into the /etc/designs/mywebsite folder.
CREATING THE CONTENTPAGE TEMPLATE, COMPONENT AND
SCRIPT
In this section, you create the following:
• The contentpage template that will be used to create content pages in the example website
• The contentpage component that will be used to render pages of content
• The contentpage script
Creating the Contentpage Template
Create a template to use as the basis of the web pages of your site.
A template defines the default content of a new page. Complex websites may use several templates for
creating the different types of pages in the site. In this exercise, all pages are based on one simple template.
1.
In the folder tree of CRXDE Lite, right-click /apps/mywebsite/templates and click Create > Create
Template.
2.
In the Create Template dialog, type the following values and then click Next:
• Label: contentpage
• Title: My Website Content Page Template
• Description: This is my Website Content Page Template
• Resource Type: mywebsite/components/contentpage
Use the default value for the Ranking property.
The resource type identifies the component that renders the page. In this case, all pages created using
the contentpage template are rendered by the mywebsite/components/contentpage component.

3.
To specify the paths of the pages that can use this template, click the plus button and type /
content(/.*)? in the text box that appears. Then, click Next.
The value of the allowed path property is a regular expression. Pages that have a path that matches
the expression can use the template. In this is case the regular expression matches the path of the /
content folder and all subpages.
When an author creates a page below /content, the contentpage template appears in a list of available
templates to use.
4.
Click Next in the Allowed Parents and Allowed Children panels and click OK. In CRXDE Lite, click
Save All.
Creating the Contentpage Component
Create the component that defines the content and renders the pages that use the contentpage template.
The location of the component must correspond with the value of the Resource Type property of the
contentpage template.
1.
In CRXDE Lite, right-click /apps/mywebsite/components and click Create > Component.
2.
In the Create Component dialog, type the following property values:
• Label: contentpage
• Title: My Website Content Page Component
• Description: This is My Website Content Page Component

How to Create a Fully Featured Internet Website
The location of the new component is /apps/mywebsite/components/contentpage. This path
corresponds with the resource type of the contentpage template (minus the initial /apps/ part of the
path).
This correspondence connects the template to the component and is critical to the correct functioning
of the website.
3.
Click Next until the Allowed Children panel of the dialog appears, and then click OK. In CRXDE Lite,
click Save All.
The structure now looks as follows:
Developing the Contentpage Component Script
Add code to the contentpage.jsp script to define the page content.
1.
In CRXDE Lite, open the file contentpage.jsp in /apps/mywebsite/components/contentpage. The file
contains the following code by default:
<%-My Website Content Page Component component.
This is My Website Content Page Component.
--%><%
%><%@include file="/libs/foundation/global.jsp"%><%
%><%@page session="false" %><%
%><%
/* TODO add you code here */
%>
2.
Copy the following code and paste it in contentpage.jsp after the default code:
<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"

Using the Foundation Page Scripts
In this exercise, you configure your pagecontent component so that its supertype is the AEM Page
component. Because components inherit the features of their supertype, your pagecontent inherits the
scripts and properties of the Page component.
For example, in your component JSP code, you can reference the scripts that the supertype component
provides as though they are included in your component.
1.
2.
In CRXDE Lite, add a property to the /apps/mywebsite/components/contentpage node.
1. Select the /apps/mywebsite/components/contentpage node.
2. At the bottom of the Properties tab, type the following property values and then click Add:
• Name: sling:resourceSuperType
• Type: String
• Value: foundation/components/page
3. Click Save All.
Open the contentpage.jsp file under /apps/mywebsite/components/contentpage and replace the
existing code with the following code:
<%@include file="/libs/foundation/global.jsp"%><%
%><%@page session="false" contentType="text/html; charset=utf-8" %><%
%><!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<cq:include script="head.jsp"/>
<cq:include script="body.jsp"/>
</html>
3.
Save your changes.
4.
In your browser, reload the Products page. It looks as follows:
Open the page source to see the javascript and HTML elements that the head.jsp and body.jsp scripts
generated. The following script snippet opens Sidekick when you open the page:
CQ.WCM.launchSidekick("/content/mywebsite/en/products",
{propsDialog: "/libs/foundation/components/page/dialog",
locked: false locked: false
});
Using your own scripts
In this section you create several scripts that each generate a part of the page body. You then create the
body.jsp file in the pagecontent component to override the body.jsp of the AEM Page component. In your
body.jsp file, you include your scripts that generate the different parts of the page body.

CREATING THE TOP NAVIGATION COMPONENT
In this section, you create a component that displays links to all top level pages of the website as to ease
navigation. This component content appears at the top of all pages that are created using the contentpage
template.
In the first version of the top navigation component (topnav) the navigation items are text links only. In the
second version you implement topnav with image navigation links.
Your top navigation will look as follows:

/* get starting point of navigation */
Page navRootPage = currentPage.getAbsoluteParent(2);
if (navRootPage == null && currentPage != null) {
navRootPage = currentPage;
}
if (navRootPage != null) {
Iterator<Page> children = navRootPage.listChildren(new PageFilter(request));
while (children.hasNext()) {
Page child = children.next();
%><a href="<%= child.getPath() %>.html"><%=child.getTitle() %></a><%
}
}
%>
Including Top Navigation in the Contentpage Component
To include topnav in your contentpage component:
1.
In CRXDE Lite, open the body.jsp under /apps/mywebsite/components/contentpage and replace:
<div class="topnav">topnav</div>
with:
<cq:include path="topnav" resourceType="mywebsite/components/topnav" />
2.
Save the changes.
3.
In your browser, reload the Products Page. The top navigation appears as follows:
Enhancing Pages with Subtitles
The Page component defines properties that enable you to provide subtitles for pages. Add subtitles that
provide information about the page content.
1.
In your browser, open the Products page.
2.
3.
On the Sidekick Page tab, click Page Properties.
On the Basic tab of the dialog, expand More Titles and Description, and for the Subtitle property,
type what we do. Click OK.
Repeat the previous steps to add the subtitle about our services to the Services page.
Repeat the previous steps to add the subtitle the trust we earn to the Customers page.
4.
5.
Tip: In CRXDE Lite, select the /content/mywebsite/en/products/jcr:content node to see that the subtitle
property is added.
Enhance Top Navigation by Using Image Links
Enhance the rendering script of the topnav component to use image links instead of hypertext for the
navigation controls. The image includes the title and subtitle of the link target.

This exercise demonstrates Sling request processing. The topnav.jsp script is modified to call a script that
dynamically generates images to use for the page navigation links. In this exercise, Sling parses the URL of
image source files to determine the script to use to render the images.
For example, the source for the image link to the Products page could be http://localhost:4502/content/
mywebsite/en/products.navimage.png. Sling parses this URL to determine the resource type and the script to
use to render the resource:
1. Sling determines the path of the resource to be /content/mwebysite/en/products.png.
2. Sling matches this path with the /content/mywebsite/en/products node.
3. Sling determines the sling:resourceType of this node to be mywebsite/components/contentpage.
4. Sling finds the script in this component that best matches the URL selector (navimage) and file name
extension (png).
In this exercise, Sling matches these URLs to the /apps/mywebsite/components/contentpage/
navimage.png.java script that you create.
1.
In CRXDE Lite, open the topnav.jsp under /apps/mywebsite/components/topnav. Locate the content of
the anchor element (line 14):
<%=child.getTitle() %>
2.
Replace the anchor content with the following code:
<img alt="<%= child.getTitle() %>" src="<%= child.getPath() %>.navimage.png">
3.
Save the changes.
4.
Right-click the /apps/mywebsite/components/contentpage node and click Create > Create File.
5.
In the Create File window, as Name, type navimage.png.java.
The .java file name extension indicates to Sling that the Apache Sling Scripting Java Support should be
used to compile the script and create a servlet.
Copy the following code into navimage.png.java. The code extends the AbstractImageServlet class:
• AbstractImageServlet creates an ImageContext object that stores the properties of the current
resource.
• The parent page of the resource is extracted from the ImageContext object. The page title and
subtitle are then obtained.
• ImageHelper is used to generate the image from the navimage_bg.jpg file of the site design, the
page title, and the page subtitle.
