Adventures with Groovy Script

/ March 12, 2015

Hi Friends,

Throughout my project experiences , I have been surrounded with quite challenging tasks. One of that was exploring Groovy Script. By this blog post , I would try to make you familiar with Groovy and I am sure by the end of it, you will be loving this language. Check out all the examples I worked out during my projects and I have tried to explain what magic you can do with Groovy by comments. So go ahead explore and let me know if you have any challenging problems on Groovy.

Installation of Groovy Console :

The first step to learn Groovy would be to install its IDE. Citytechinc provides a Downloadable zip package which you can install in your instances and you are good to go.

Groovy for AEM 5.6.1 & AEM 6

Groovy for AEM 6.1 with Intelligence (Preferable)

AEM Groovy Console provides an interface for running Groovy scripts in the AEM (Adobe CQ) container. What I will try to do is make you familiar with the language through various examples and then you can solve any use case as per your clients business need.

AEM examples and Sample Use Cases solved by Groovy

  • Hello World

This is the most basic program for any language and its a convention to let you know this. We will jump to more client specific requirements in the subsequent examples.

println 'Hello Groovy World '
  • Find Number of Pages, Page Title , Page Names in a Site hierarchy 

By this code piece I will try to show you guys how a page is traversed in groovy and how its properties can be retrieved and displayed.

/**@author Hashim Khan */

import javax.jcr.Node

/*Flag to count the number of pages*/
noOfPages = 0
/*Pathfield which needs to be iterated for an operation*/
path='/content/geometrixx/en/'
findAllPages()

/*This method is used to Iterate all the pages under a hierarchy
 *and get their page title ,path and the overall number of
 *pages.*/

def findAllPages(){
  getPage(path).recurse
      { page ->
        println 'Title:'+page.title
        println 'Path:'+page.path
        noOfPages ++
      }
}
  • Find all the pages wherein a particular component is being used.

Sometimes there will be a scenario where you have to find (and modify/delete) a particular component from the complete site structure in multiple environments. There is no better solution for that kind of problem , other than Groovy Script.

/** @author Hashim Khan */

/** @author Hashim Khan */

/*This method is used to Query the JCR and find results as per the Query.*/
  def buildQuery(page, term) {
        def queryManager = session.workspace.queryManager;
       def statement = 'select * from nt:base where jcr:path like \''+page.path+'/%\' and sling:resourceType = \'' + term + '\'';
        queryManager.createQuery(statement, 'sql');
    }

    /*Defined Content Hierarchy */
   final def page = getPage('/content/geometrixx/en/')
   /*Component ResourceType which is searched in the content hierarchy */
   final def query = buildQuery(page, 'foundation/components/text');
   final def result = query.execute()

   count = 0;
   result.nodes.each { node ->
   String nodePath = node.path;
   println nodePath
 }
   println 'No Of Pages found :' + result.nodes.size();
/** @author Hashim Khan */
  • Find all the pages of a particular Template .

I have depicted to display all the pages using a specific template. In real world you might be asked to modify some of the properties of a template or add, subtract something. All this you can easily do in an instant using groovy script.

/**@author Hashim Khan */

import javax.jcr.Node

/*Flag to count the number of pages*/
noOfPages = 0
/*Pathfield which needs to be iterated for an operation*/
path='/content/geometrixx/en/'
findAllPagesWidTemplate()

/*This method is used to Iterate all the pages under a hierarchy
 *and find pages with a specific template
 */

def findAllPagesWidTemplate(){
 getPage(path).recurse
 { page ->
      def content = page.node
      def property= content.get('sling:resourceType')
      if(property=="geometrixx/components/contentpage"){
         noOfPages ++
         println 'Page Path:'+content.path
      }
 }
}
println 'No Of Pages::'+noOfPages

Alternatively we could have used Query Builder API to find the pages with a particular template. The below method is more robust and user friendly :

SQL QUERY

/** @author Hashim Khan */

/*This method is used to Query the JCR and find results as per the Query.*/
  def buildQuery(page, term) {
        def queryManager = session.workspace.queryManager;
        def statement = 'select * from nt:base where jcr:path like \''+page.path+'/%\' and sling:resourceType = \'' + term + '\'';
/*Here term is the sling:resourceType property value*/
        queryManager.createQuery(statement, 'sql');
    }

    /*Defined Content Hierarchy */
   final def page = getPage('/content/geometrixx/en/')
   /*Template which is searched in the content hierarchy */
   final def query = buildQuery(page, 'geometrixx/components/contentpage');
   final def result = query.execute()

   println 'No Of pages found = ' + result.nodes.size();

   result.nodes.each { node ->
        println 'nodePath::'+node.path
   }

XPATH QUERY


/*This method is used to Query the JCR and find results as per the Query.*/
 def buildQuery(page, term) {
 def queryManager = session.workspace.queryManager;
 def statement = "/jcr:root${page.path}//element(*, cq:Page)[jcr:content/@cq:template = '"+term+"']"
 /*Here term is the cq:template value*/
 def query = queryManager.createQuery(statement, 'xpath')
 }

 /*Defined Content Hierarchy */
 final def page = getPage('/content/geometrixx/en/')
 /*Component ResourceType which is searched in the content hierarchy */
 final def query = buildQuery(page, '/apps/geometrixx/templates/contentpage');
 final def result = query.execute()

 count = 0;
 result.nodes.each { node ->
 String nodePath = node.path;
 println nodePath
 }
 println 'No Of component found :' + result.nodes.size();
 result.nodes.each { node ->
 println 'nodePath::'+node.path
 }
  • Delete all the nodes of a particular type with a specific property.

Deletion of a particular node is quite handy when you have to similar use case and want to modify the content quickly and easily.


/** @author Hashim Khan */

/*This method is used to Query the JCR and find results as per the Query.*/
 def buildQuery(page, term) {
 def queryManager = session.workspace.queryManager;
 def statement = 'select * from nt:base where jcr:path like \''+page.path+'/%\' and sling:resourceType = \'' + term + '\'';
 queryManager.createQuery(statement, 'sql');
 }

 /*Defined Content Hierarchy */
 final def page = getPage('/content/geometrixx/en/')
 /*Component ResourceType which is searched in the content hierarchy */
 final def query = buildQuery(page, 'foundation/components/flash');
 final def result = query.execute()

 count = 0;
 result.nodes.each { node ->
 String nodePath = node.path;

 if(nodePath.contains('flash') && !nodePath.contains('jcr:versionStorage') ){
 count ++;
 println 'deleting--'+nodePath ;
 node.remove();
 /* Save this session if you are sure the correct nodes are being deleted. Once the session is saved the nodes couldn't be retrieved back.
 *session.save();*/
 }
 }
 println 'No Of component found :' + result.nodes.size();
 println 'Number of Component Deleted: ' + count;
  • Modify a property in a complete site hierarchy as per business logic. 

There was a real time problem in one of my project where we have to fill in jcr:title in the Page-title whenever the Page title was a null. Moreover we were having multiple languages sites and have to browse through all of them at once. We used groovy to solve this problem for multiple development environments. Similar to the below example where I am modifying a particular node and its property for the complete hierarchy using Groovy. I have used example for a Geometrixx site (AEM 6.0) so that you can may the results for yourself.


/** @author Hashim Khan */

/*This method is used to Query the JCR and find results as per the Query.*/
 def buildQuery(page, term) {
 def queryManager = session.workspace.queryManager;
 def statement = 'select * from nt:base where jcr:path like \''+page.path+'/%\' and sling:resourceType = \'' + term + '\'';
 queryManager.createQuery(statement, 'sql');
 }

 /*Defined Content Hierarchy */
 final def page = getPage('/content/geometrixx/en/')
 /*Component ResourceType which is searched in the content hierarchy */
 final def query = buildQuery(page, 'collab/calendar/components/event');
 final def result = query.execute()

 count = 0;
 result.nodes.each { node ->
 String nodePath = node.path;

 if(nodePath.contains('event') && !nodePath.contains('jcr:versionStorage') ){
 /*The below iterator is used to fetch the child pages of the parent node */
 node.findAll { it.hasNodes() }.each {
 if(it.name.contains("event")){
 count ++;
 println 'Title--'+it.get('jcr:title') ;
 println 'Node Path--'+it.path ;
 it.set('jcr:title','Hashim');
 println 'Title--'+it.get('jcr:title') ;
 session.save()
 }
 }
 }
 }
 println 'Number Of Component Found :' + result.nodes.size();
 println 'Number of Component Modified:' + count;
  • Count Number of Nodes which have more than 1000+ child nodes.

This a common use case wherein you are asked to check whether a particular hierarchy has nodes which has more than 1000 child nodes . You can change the Search Path as per you convenience and list down the nodes under that hierarchy.


/** @author Hashim Khan */

import javax.jcr.NodeIterator

def path="/etc/tags"
def variable = 1000

println 'Node,COUNT'
getNode(path).recurse { node >
 NodeIterator it = node.getNodes()
 def count =0
 while(it.hasNext()){
 def nodetemp = it.nextNode()
 count++
 }

 if(count>=variable)
 println node.path + ','+count
}
  • Delete all the Unused Tags in an application. 

In this script the unused tags are counted in an application and deleted with a delay . If the tag count is much more it is advisable to run this script in a more specified path.  You have to run this script a few times as it doesn’t delete the tags which has any child nodes.

 Node tempNode = res.adaptTo(javax.jcr.Node);

 if(tag.getCount()==0){
 if(!tempNode.hasNodes()){
 unusedTags++
 println "Deleted Tag : " + tag.getPath()
 tempNode.remove()
 }
 }
 Thread.currentThread().sleep((long)(delay));
 }

}
println "Total Unused Tags :"+unusedTags
//session.save() //Uncomment this to make it working.

def getAllTags(tagpath) {
 def queryManager = session.workspace.queryManager
 def statement = "/jcr:root"+tagpath+"//element(*, cq:Tag)"
 def query = queryManager.createQuery(statement, "xpath")
}
  • Merge Duplicate Tags in an Application

This was a requirement in one of my client who asked us to merge the Duplicate Tags .  This way you can list out all the duplicate tags and merge all of them into the first Master Tag. All the related references in the Pages will automatically be changed as per the API.

 final def result = query.execute()

 def tagList = []

 result.nodes.each {node->
 String nodeTitle = node.name;
 tagList.add(nodeTitle);
 }
 def duplicates = tagList.findAll {tagList.count(it) > 1}
 def uniqueUsers = duplicates.unique(mutate = false)
 def count = 0;
 TagManager tm = resourceResolver.adaptTo(com.day.cq.tagging.TagManager);
 def mergecount = 0;

 uniqueUsers.each {
 def tagquery = findDuplicateTags(tagLocation,it);

 Tag tag , masterTag =null;

 count = 0;
 pathresult.nodes.each {node->
 Resource r = resourceResolver.getResource(node.path)
 tag = r.adaptTo(com.day.cq.tagging.Tag)
 Node tempNode = r.adaptTo(javax.jcr.Node);
 if(count == 0 ){
 masterTag = tag ;
 }else if(tm!=null && !(tag.getPath()==masterTag.getPath())){
 if(!tempNode.hasNodes()){
 println 'Merging Tag :: ' + tag.getPath() +' into>> '+ masterTag.getPath()
 mergecount++
 tm.mergeTag(tag,masterTag)
 }
 }
 count++
 Thread.currentThread().sleep((long)(delay));
 }

 }
println 'Merged tags count ::'+ mergecount
  • Create a CSV File for Duplicate Tags List in the Application.

This script can be used to generate a CSV output and store into filesystem . It lists down all the tags which are Duplicate and all the pages where they are being used. It will help to analyse the System Taxonomy.

So friends as you may have noticed that Groovy could be quite useful in an AEM project where you need to modify some content / property in one go. Do let me know if you face any other challenging issues where I could help you in using Groovy.
There could be million of other things where Groovy is very useful . If you want to explore more on Groovy use the pdf :: Groovy Recipes

Happy Groovying !! :)

Now all the Groovy Scripts are available in the GITHUB Project – https://github.com/hashimkhan786/aem-groovy-scripts

  2. How can we integrate Groovy in AEM?
    e.g. Could you please tell me how we use it in our component, like as per you example of pages in a path, how can we print those pages under a path in our component using groovy?

  3. Hi Hashim,

    Thank you for posting this article.

    I installed the package and I am able to access the console at http://localhost:4502/etc/groovyconsole.html#.

    However, if I try to run the “Hello World” sample. It is throwing the below error.

    I am using AEM 5.6.1 version and downloaded groovy package “groovyconsole-2.0.1” from the link provided above.

  4. Hi Hashim,

    Thank you for your reply.

    This does not work : println ‘Hello Groovy World‘

    This works : println ‘Hello Groovy World’

    I tried the next section “Find Number of Pages, Page Title , Page Names in a Site hierarchy
    ” and it is failing. I tried replacing the quotes with the ones that worked above. But it isn’t working.

    Your thoughts will be helpful.

      • Hi,

        Thank you for your reply.

        I have removed the comments mentioned in the code provided in the section [Find Number of Pages, Page Title , Page Names in a Site hierarchy] and pasted below

        import javax.jcr.Node

        noOfPages = 0
        path=’/content/geometrixx/en/’
        findAllPages()

        def findAllPages(){
        getPage(path).recurse
        { page ->;
        println ‘Title:’+page.title
        println ‘Path:’+page.path
        noOfPages ++
        }
        }
        println ‘No Of Pages::’+noOfPages

        Since you mentioned word press is manipulating symbols, tried the below :

        – Couple of combinations of symbols, but was not able to execute it successfully.
        – Can you please let me know the symbols that word press is manipulating and the corresponding correct symbols, so that I can go ahead and try all the samples mentioned in this post.

  8. Hi Hashim,
    I would like to rename a node which is present under jcr:content. Could you please share the groovy script for it. For Eg:-I have a page like /content/community-components/en/calendar/jcr:content/content and i had a node called title under it. I would like to change the name of the title node to notitle.
    Could you please share the groovy script asap.
    Thanks,
