Adobe AEM/CQ - adding property to a node with ExtJS

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21587049/how-can-i-make-a-new-jcrcontent-node-with-extjs

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20398657/how-to-add-new-property-to-jcr-node-through-cq-extjs

Important note:
The new property created cannot have a null/empty value - otherwise it will not create the property..

Adobe AEM/CQ - extjs multifield + compositefield with multiple textfields

Suppose we have a form (name: 'formName') with a multifield as follow:

var multifield = new CQ.form.Multifield {
    fieldLabel : 'Multiple: ',
    orderable : false,
    name : 'multifieldExample',
    fieldConfig : {
        xtype : 'compositefield',
        layout: 'form',
        items : [{
          xtype: 'textfield',
          fieldLabel: 'field1: '
        }, {
          xtype: 'textfield',
          fieldLabel: 'field2: '
        }]
    },
    width: 650
}

Here is how we can retrieve the value of the first instance of field2:

formName.getForm().findField('multifieldExample').findByType('compositefield')[0].items.itemAt[1].getValue();

We can retrieve the items under a component via .items.itemAt[i]

Adobe AEM/CQ - ACS dispatcher flush rules

We use this to flush associate paths for a given node.

E.g.

When an activation occurs for path /content/abc, we can configure with this ACS package to also flushes the dispatcher cache for path /content/xyz.

Read more about this add-on here:

http://adobe-consulting-services.github.io/acs-aem-commons/features/dispatcher-flush-rules.html

Configurations:

/system/console --> ACS dispatcher flush rules

/etc/replication/agents.publish.html
