Method Detail

getCollections

java.util.Iterator<Resource> getCollections(ResourceResolver resolver,
                                            boolean includeSmartCollections)

Gets an iterator on all collections that can be added to a content fragment as "associated content".

In this context, the term "collections" refers to DAM or other resource collections (technically implemented as Sling Resource Collections, see org.apache.sling.resource.collection.ResourceCollection).

As some of the implementations use a "smart collection" approach (like a collection containing the dynamically updated list of last modified items), which you may or may not want included in your list, there's a parameter for defining if such smart collections should actually be included.

Parameters:

resolver - The ResourceResolver for retrieving the collections

includeSmartCollections - True if smart collections should be included

Returns:

The iterator on collections; resource type of each resource type is sling/collection
