An asset browser based on the REST API at /api.json
Start an AEM 6.1 instance at http://localhost:4502
Optional: Browsing content will work out of the box. However, content modifications
require the following re-configuration. Login and change the configuration of AEM's
CSRFFilter to allow all methods. This can be achieved by setting the
Filter Methods field (filter-methods) to the string NONE. Note that removing all
filters methods will cause the default to be activated and thus filter out POST,
PUT and DELETE methods.
Run the following commands:
# install all required dependencies
npm install
# run the app on a gulp's built-in server
npm run serve
A browser should automatically open, showing http://localhost:9000/#/browser/assets
The grunt server proxies the requests to the AEM instance and automatically logs in using
the default credentials admin:admin.
The browser implements a mechanism to inject content urls into other applications. In
order to use this feature, the browser needs to be opened in a new window from another
app and a callback named insertImage(url) needs to be defined in the opener window.
Take a look at apps/asset-select.html and http://localhost:9000/asset-select.html
for a basic working example.
