CQ5 - Sling currentPage in model class

In a CQ jsp it's easy to access the currentPage object by simply calling currentPage.getPath(). But I'm trying to remove any scrip lets and separate them out into a model class and can't figure out how to access the currentPage object. I thought I could do something like:

public void setResource(Resource resource){
    resource.getPath()
}

But that returns something like: 

/content/home/subPage/jcr:content/banner

I'm just looking to return /content/home/subPage/. I'm trying to use resources to get the path but can't find anything to do this. I know this must be something small that I'm just overlooking. Thanks for the help!

Solution

  • you are getting jcr:content/banner because you are calling the resource of a component inside a page, not the page itself.

    to get the current page from a component you can use the PageManager:

    PageManager pageManager= resource.getResourceResolver().adaptTo(PageManager.class);

    Page currentPage = pageManager.getContainingPage(resource);
