getting actual page from inherited component

[Samuli Saarinen]

Hi,

I'm building a component that needs to access the page that it is currently on which

can normally be achieved with cmsfn.page(content) BUT if the component is inherited

then the function seems to still return the page that the component is defined even though

currently rendering a child page (that inherits the component).

Is there a way to get the "actual" page when rendering the inherited component? Or am I just trying to do something silly here? There seems to be some functions related to inheriting in cmsfn but I have not yet figured out how those could help.

BR, Samuli

Hey Samuli,

What does ${state.mainContentNode} return? You might want to wrap in into a ContentMap as this should return a plain JCR node.

Hope that helps

Thanks Roman, this works as I would expect in the inherited component:

[#local currentPage = (cmsfn.page(cmsfn.asContentMap(state.mainContentNode)))!{}]

It might be good to mention this in documentation also as state.mainContentNode  is only mentioned pretty briefly with no explanation on what it actually is. Also maybe cmsfn.currentPage(state) might be handy :)

Thanks for your help and merry xmas!
