Trouble with (and a couple of questions regarding) configuring the
Sling Resource Resolver
Hi all,
=== Introduction
We are using Adobe CQ 5 (CQ 5.6) project to create and manage different
sites with different domains.
These sites are stored in shards with the following format:
/content/myapp/a1/b1/c1/uuid-1/
/content/myapp/a2/b2/c2/uuid-2/
/content/myapp/a3/b3/c3/uuid-3/
...
Each site has a home page that is stored in the root folder of the site.
For example, we have:
/content/myapp/a1/b1/c1/uuid-1/home
in which home is a cq:Page.
Other pages of the site are children of the home page. For example we have:
/content/myapp/a1/b1/c1/uuid-1/home/about
/content/myapp/a1/b1/c1/uuid-1/home/faq
...
We want to accomplish the following two objectives:
1. Serve each CQ site from a distinct domain (no two sites can have the
same domain)
2. Serve sites with short URLs. That is, pretending that we want to
serve the site with uuid-1 from site-1.com
1. Home page should be accessible via http://site-1.com rather than
http://site-1.com/content/myapp/a1/b1/c1/uuid-1/
2. Similarly the about page should be accessible via
http://site-1.com/about and faq should be accessible via
http://site-1.com/faq
3. Rewrite URLs in the generated HTML pages to their short forms. For
example, if a generated page contains an anchor like <a href="
/content/myapp/a1/b1/c1/uuid-1/home/faq">FAQ</a>, before being sent to
the browser, it should be shortened to <a href="/faq">FAQ</a>
To test our implementation in local development environments, we have added
the following entries to our /etc/hosts files:
127.0.0.1 site-1
127.0.0.1 site-2
127.0.0.1 site-3
This allows us to connect to our local CQ5 Publisher instances via
http://site-1:4503 to test these mappings.
It is difficult to find all the information required to implement these two
objectives in one place. One article we are using as a starting point
is Multidomain CQ mappings and Apache configuration:
http://www.cognifide.com/blogs/cq/multidomain-cq-mappings-and-apache-configuration/
According to this article, we need to define two sling mappings under
/etc/map.publish. With some minor changes, we have implemented these
mappings:
- Gist: https://gist.github.com/behrangsa/6a8f5682706668eb6942
- Downloadable:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByWstmU-AS9GQ2NxNXQzWGNDcjQ/edit?usp=sharing
With this configuration we have achieved our first two objectives. However
we have not managed to achieve our 3rd objective. That is when we view the
source code of an HTML page generated by CQ5, none of the anchor hrefs are
transformed to their shorter forms.
=== Questions
- Is sling:Mapping thoroughly documented anywhere? I especially want to
know how sling treats internalRedirect when it contains an array of strings
rather than a string. There's this page here (
https://sling.apache.org/documentation/the-sling-engine/mappings-for-resource-resolution.html)
but it is quite brief and lacks detail.
- Is there anything wrong with the configuration that I have posted?
- What else do I have to do to make CQ transform anchors in the
generated HTML files so that they are shortened? In case it might be
helpful, output of /system/console/status-slingrewriter is also uploaded to
here: https://gist.github.com/behrangsa/e50c3131b693e8d06c61
- Here's a screenshot of our Day CQ Link Checker Transformer's
configuration: http://i.imgur.com/E4AS3R4.png (Gist here:

We finally managed to pinpoint the issue and fix this.
Somebody had added a
`com.day.cq.rewriter.linkchecker.impl.LinkCheckerImpl.xml` under
`/apps/myapp/config.publish` with the following content:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jcr:root xmlns:sling="http://sling.apache.org/jcr/sling/1.0"
xmlns:jcr="http://www.jcp.org/jcr/1.0"
jcr:primaryType="sling:OsgiConfig"
service.bad_link_tolerance_interval="{Long}48"
service.check_override_patterns="[^.]"
service.special_link_patterns=".*
"
service.special_link_prefix="[javascript:,data:,mailto:,#,<!--,${]"/>
I think the combination of `check_override_patterns` and
`special_link_patterns` had disabled link shortening.
Removing this file made link shortening work again.

Hello again,
It seems to me while the article that I had mentioned in my previous email (
http://www.cognifide.com/blogs/cq/multidomain-cq-mappings-and-apache-configuration/)
implies that the "linkchecker" transformer/rewriter converts longs URLs
into short URLs, it, in fact, only checks for broken links (please correct
me if I am wrong).
I ended up implementing a custom transformer:
https://gist.github.com/behrangsa/9890191
This is basically copied from
https://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/deploying/dispatcher/disp_domains.htmlwith
some minor changes.
Best regards,
Behrang
