About

    -V, --version    Prints version information
    -v, --verbose    Enables logs: -v - enables INFO log level -vv - enables DEBUG log level

Rust programmers

Install

cargo install je

Upgrade

cargo install --force je

Configuration

Default

Configuration file is not required. Without it, je will use default configuration. However, you can still initialize config and change it. The default configuration is also the initial one:

❯ je init
❯ cat .je
ignore_properties = []

[[profile]]
name = "author"
addr = "http://localhost:4502"
user = "admin"
pass = "admin"

Customize

Here is more complex configuration with description of its fields:

ignore_properties = [{ type = "contains", value = "jcr:createdBy" },
                     { type = "regex", value = '.*=\[]' }]

[[profile]]
name = "author"
addr = "http://localhost:4502"
user = "admin"
pass = "admin"

[[profile]]
name = "publish"
addr = "http://localhost:4503"
user = "admin"
pass = "admin"

[[bundle]]
name = "configs"
files = ["/apps/my-app/config", "/config/my-app"]

[[bundle]]
name = "dam"
paths = ["/content/dam/my-app/thumbnails", "/content/dam/my-app/files"]
  • ignore_properties - tell je which properties of .content.xml should be removed after downloading the content; currently, two types of ignoring mechanisms are available:
    • contains - executes line.contains(value) on each line
    • regex - executes regex.is_match(line) on each line, it uses Perl-style regular expressions
  • profile section - you can add multiple profiles, each with settings:
    • name - name of the profile, later it can be used with --profile option to specify which instance is the target; if not specified, the first profile from the config is used
    • addr - address of the instance, including port if domain is not available
    • user - user used to authenticate to AEM instance
    • pass - password used to authenticate to AEM instance
  • bundles section - you can define packs of files which will be synchronized in one run:
    • name - name of the bundle, it can be later used with --bundle option to specify which file pack to synchronize
    • paths - which file paths are part of the bundle

⚠️ If you used older version of je, then you can transform the configuration file to the new form. Details below.

Details `je reinit` will change:
ignore_properties = ["jcr:created", "jcr:createdBy"]

# (...)

to

version = "0.3.0"

[[ignore_properties]]
type = "contains"
value = "jcr:created"

[[ignore_properties]]
type = "contains"
value = "jcr:createdBy"

# (...)

which is equivalent to:

version = "0.3.0"

ignore_properties = [{type = "contains", value = "jcr:created"},
                     {type = "contains", value = "jcr:createdBy"}]

# (...)

You can use any of those two formats. The difference is the result of this issue.

IntelliJ Setup

Add je commands:

  1. Go to Settings -> Tools -> External Tools.
  2. Add new external tool using + sign.
  3. Configure the tool like on the screenshot below.

je get configuration

Similarly add and configure je put command:

je put configuration

Notes
  • if you don't have je in PATH, you can set full path in Program input
  • Arguments input:
    • -vv - sets verbose level, -vv means DEBUG log level, -v means INFO log level; it's optional
    • --profile - sets target profile; if not provided, first profile from config will be used
    • -d - sets debug mode in which temporary packages uploaded to AEM won't be deleted to allow validation during debugging; it's optional
    • subcommand (put or get)
    • $FilePath$ - IntelliJ variable which will be substituted during command execution, its absolute path to a file on which command is executed
  • Working directory input:
    • set to $ProjectFileDir$ allows running je from the project root
    • keep in mind that je will try to read config file from the set working directory

Configure key bindings:

  1. Go to Settings -> Keymap -> External Tools.
  2. Find the commands added previously.
  3. Set keyboard mapping by Right Click -> Add Keyboard Shortcut
