Content Items
Document JSON representation
A serialized document typically has a format like the example below. There is the type field, the links containing information about the URL and whether it is internal or external to the current SPA, meta which can contain document information typically only needed for the channel preview in the Experience manager, and the data section containing the actual contents of the document. If the document contains references to other documents, image sets or assets, they also get serialized flattened, as shown for the image field below.
{
"type":"document",
"links":{
"site":{
"href":"/news/2015/08/2013-harvest.html",
"type":"internal"
}
},
"meta":{
},
"data":{
"name":"2013-harvest",
"displayName":"2013 harvest",
"date":1440571980000,
"source":"",
"title":"2013 harvest",
"introduction":"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet",
"author":"Alfred Anonymous",
"image":{
"$ref":"/page/ubeff458ee07a40658cad8d96b67d13ec"
},
"location":"Rome",
"content":{
"value":" <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</p> "
},
"localeString":"en",
"id":"30092f4e-2ef7-4c72-86a5-8ce895908937"
}
}
Image set JSON representation
Image sets are serialized as type 'imageset' and have all the different image variants serialized including the URL to retrieve them, for example:
"udb02dde500984488a72c2a4fc6d51beb" : {
"type" : "imageset",
"links" : { },
"meta" : { },
"data" : {
"name" : "picture.jpeg",
"displayName" : "picture.jpeg",
"description" : null,
"original" : {
"name" : "hippogallery:original",
"displayName" : "hippogallery:original",
"width" : -1,
"height" : -1,
"lastModified" : 1236880917884,
"mimeType" : "image/jpeg",
"filename" : "picture_original.jpeg",
"size" : 168981,
"links" : {
"site" : {
"href" : "http://localhost/site/binaries/unittestcontent/gallery/picture.jpeg",
"type" : "resource"
}
}
},
"thumbnail" : {
"name" : "hippogallery:thumbnail",
"displayName" : "hippogallery:thumbnail",
"width" : -1,
"height" : -1,
"lastModified" : 1236880917884,
"mimeType" : "image/jpeg",
"filename" : "picture_thumbnail.jpeg",
"size" : 1490,
"links" : {
"site" : {
"href" : "http://localhost/site/binaries/thumbnail/unittestcontent/gallery/picture.jpeg",
"type" : "resource"
}
}
},
"fileName" : null,
"localeString" : null,
"id" : "db02dde5-0098-4488-a72c-2a4fc6d51beb"
}
}
Pagination JSON representation
Document query components have a search result-like pagination model containing:
-
A list of actual results for the current page
-
How many results there are
-
How many items are on a pages
-
How many pages there are
-
What the current page is
The pagination object gets serialized flattened. Its structure looks as follows and the JSON references the items point to the actual content items which are also serialized flattened in the response:
