             Summary: HTL: Add support for suffix manipulation in ResourceRuntimeExtension
                 Key: SLING-11850
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-11850
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Scripting
    Affects Versions: Scripting HTL Engine 1.4.22-1.4.0
            Reporter: Robin Brouns


In JSP there is the possibility to include a resource in a component and adjust the suffix of the sub-request, processing this resource:
{code:java}
<sling:include 
    path="my-component"  
    resourceType="application/components/other-component"  
    replaceSuffix="some-suffix"/>
{code}
See also: [https://github.com/apache/sling-org-apache-sling-scripting-jsp-taglib/blob/7835da79f1de7c9c14fd478e9fec23f54fd6d711/src/main/java/org/apache/sling/scripting/jsp/taglib/AbstractDispatcherTagHandler.java#L89]

But HTL lacks this option to adjust the suffix for the sub-request (by using data-sly-resource): see [https://github.com/apache/sling-org-apache-sling-scripting-sightly/blob/3b50f91c4f600081f0585e50dfb775c4b2856b89/src/main/java/org/apache/sling/scripting/sightly/impl/engine/extension/ResourceRuntimeExtension.java#L58] 

Is there a reason why this feature wasn't added and is not supported right now?

Because we can manipulate the suffix in a URI context in HTL ([https://github.com/apache/sling-org-apache-sling-scripting-sightly/blob/3b50f91c4f600081f0585e50dfb775c4b2856b89/src/main/java/org/apache/sling/scripting/sightly/impl/engine/extension/URIManipulationFilterExtension.java#L221),] but just not in the Resource context.

The _RequestDispatcher_ is already available and used in the _ResourceRuntimeExtension_ so it could be added.
