AEM 6.5.10.0 - Select Experience Fragments in RTE (Rich Text Editor) Link Plugin

Goal

In the Path Field picker of RTE Link Plugin, Experience Fragments are NOT shown by default. This extension is to adjust /libs/cq/gui/content/linkpathfield/picker/views/column/datasource configuration synthetically during runtime and set exclude attribute to none so XFs can be selected and linked...

Solution

Create a filter apps.experienceaem.sites.core.filters.LinkPathFieldFilter to adjust the exclude configuration during request...

package apps.experienceaem.sites.core.filters;

import org.apache.sling.api.SlingHttpServletRequest;
import org.apache.sling.api.resource.Resource;
import org.osgi.framework.Constants;
import org.osgi.service.component.annotations.Component;
import org.slf4j.Logger;
import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;

import javax.jcr.Node;
import javax.servlet.*;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Map;

@Component(
        service = Filter.class,
        immediate = true,
        name = "Experience AEM Link path field Filter",
        property = {
                Constants.SERVICE_RANKING + ":Integer=-99",
                "sling.filter.scope=REQUEST",
                "sling.filter.pattern=/mnt/overlay/cq/gui/content/linkpathfield/picker/*.*",
        }
)
public class LinkPathFieldFilter implements Filter {
    private static Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(LinkPathFieldFilter.class);

    public static String EXCLUDE = "exclude";
    public static String EXCLUDE_NONE = "none";
    public static String LINK_PATH_DS = "/libs/cq/gui/content/linkpathfield/picker/views/column/datasource";

    @Override
    public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response, FilterChain chain) throws IOException, ServletException {
        SlingHttpServletRequest slingRequest = (SlingHttpServletRequest) request;

        try{
            Resource linkPathDSRes = slingRequest.getResourceResolver().getResource(LINK_PATH_DS);
            linkPathDSRes.adaptTo(Node.class).setProperty(EXCLUDE, EXCLUDE_NONE);//set property for this request, not saved to CRX
        }catch(Exception e){
            logger.error("Error overriding property 'exclude'", e);
        }

        chain.doFilter(slingRequest, response);
    }

    public void init(FilterConfig filterConfig) throws ServletException {
    }

    public void destroy() {
    }
}

  1. That's it? If it's that simple, then why is this not an OOTB feature?
