This example, loosely based on the AEM Headless React app, illustrates how AEM GraphQL API requests can be configured to connect to different AEM Services based on environment variables.

React apps should use the AEM Headless Client for JavaScript to interact with AEM鈥檚 GraphQL APIs. The AEM Headless client, provided by the AEM Headless Client for JavaScript, must be initialized with the AEM Service host it connects to.

React environment file

React uses , or .env files, stored in the root of the project to define build-specific values. For example, the .env.development file contains values used for during development, while .env.production contains values used for production builds.

• .env.development

# Environment variable used to specify the AEM service the React app will connect to when running under this profile
REACT_APP_AEM_HOST=https://publish-p123-e456.adobeaemcloud.com
...

.env files for other uses by postfixing .env and a semantic descriptor, such as .env.stage or .env.production. Different .env files can be used when running or building the React app, by setting the REACT_APP_ENV before executing an npm command.

For example, a React app鈥檚 package.json may contain the following scripts config:

• package.json

...
"scripts": {
  "build:development": "REACT_APP_ENV=development npm run build",
  "build:stage": "REACT_APP_ENV=stage npm run build",
  "build:production": "REACT_APP_ENV=production npm run build"
},
...

AEM headless client

The AEM Headless Client for JavaScript contains an AEM Headless client that makes HTTP requests to AEM鈥檚 GraphQL APIs. The AEM Headless client must be initialized with the AEM host it interacts with, using the value from the active .env file.

• src/api/headlessClient.js

const { AEMHeadless } = require('@adobe/aem-headless-client-js');
...
// Get the environment variables for configuring the headless client,
// specifically the `REACT_APP_AEM_HOST` which contains the AEM service host.
const {
    REACT_APP_AEM_HOST,         // https://publish-p123-e456.adobeaemcloud.com
    REACT_APP_GRAPHQL_ENDPOINT,
} = process.env;
...

// Initialize the AEM Headless client with the AEM Service host, which dictates the AEM service provides the GraphQL data.
export const aemHeadlessClient = new AEMHeadless({
    serviceURL: REACT_APP_AEM_HOST,
    endpoint: REACT_APP_GRAPHQL_ENDPOINT
});

React useEffect(鈥�) hook

Custom React useEffect hooks call the AEM Headless client, initialized with the AEM host, on behalf of the React component rendering the view.

• src/api/persistedQueries.js

import { aemHeadlessClient , mapErrors} from "./headlessClient";
...
// The exported useEffect hook
export const getAdventureByPath = async function(adventurePath) {
    const queryVariables = {'adventurePath': adventurePath};
    return executePersistedQuery('wknd-shared/adventures-by-path', queryVariables);
}
...
// Private function that invokes the aemHeadlessClient
const executePersistedQuery = async function(persistedQueryPath, queryVariables) {
    let data;
    let errors;

    try {
        // Run the persisted query using using the aemHeadlessClient that's initialized with the AEM host
        const response = await aemHeadlessClient.runPersistedQuery(persistedQueryPath, queryVariables);
        // The GraphQL data is stored on the response's data field
        data = response.data;
        errors = response.errors ? mapErrors(response.errors) : undefined;
    } catch (e) {
        console.error(e.toJSON());
        errors = e;
    }

    return {data, errors};
}

React component

The custom useEffect hook, useAdventureByPath is imported, and used to get the data using the AEM Headless client and ultimately render the content to the end user.

• 鈥荣谤肠/肠辞尘辫辞苍别苍迟蝉/础诲惫别苍迟耻谤别顿别迟补颈濒.箩蝉鈥�

import { useAdventureByPath } from './api/persistedQueries';
...
// Query AEM GraphQL APIs via the useEffect hook that invokes the AEM Headless client initialized with the AEM host
let { data, error } = useAdventureByPath('/content/dam/wknd-shared/en/adventures/bali-surf-camp/adobestock-175749320.jpg')

...

This example, based on the example AEM Headless iOS鈩� app, illustrates how AEM GraphQL API requests can be configured to connect to different AEM hosts based on .

iOS鈩� apps require a custom AEM Headless client to interact with AEM鈥檚 GraphQL APIs. The AEM Headless client must be written such that the AEM service host is configurable.

Build configuration

The XCode configuration file contains the default configuration details.

• Config.xcconfig

// The http/https protocol scheme used to access the AEM_HOST
AEM_SCHEME = https

// Target hostname for AEM service, do not include the scheme: http:// or https://
AEM_HOST = publish-p123-e789.adobeaemcloud.com
...

Initialize the custom AEM headless client

The uses a custom AEM headless client initialized with the config values for AEM_SCHEME and AEM_HOST.

...
let aemScheme: String = try Configuration.value(for: "AEM_SCHEME")  // https
let aemHost: String = try Configuration.value(for: "AEM_HOST")      // publish-p123-e456.adobeaemcloud.com

let aemHeadlessClient = Aem(scheme: aemScheme, host: aemHost);

The custom AEM headless client (api/Aem.swift) contains a method makeRequest(..) that prefixes AEM GraphQL APIs requests with the configured AEM scheme and host.

• api/Aem.swift

/// #makeRequest(..)
/// Generic method for constructing and executing AEM GraphQL persisted queries
private func makeRequest(persistedQueryName: String, params: [String: String] = [:]) -> URLRequest {
    // Encode optional parameters as required by AEM
    let persistedQueryParams = params.map { (param) -> String in
        encode(string: ";\(param.key)=\(param.value)")
    }.joined(separator: "")

    // Construct the AEM GraphQL persisted query URL, including optional query params
    let url: String = "\(self.scheme)://\(self.host)/graphql/execute.json/" + persistedQueryName + persistedQueryParams;

    var request = URLRequest(url: URL(/string: url)!);

    return request;
}

to connect to different AEM services. The build-specific values for the AEM_SCHEME and AEM_HOST are used based on the selected build in XCode, resulting in the custom AEM Headless client to connect with the correct AEM service.

This example, based on the , illustrates how AEM GraphQL API requests can be configured to connect to different AEM Services based on build-specific (or flavors) configuration variables.

Android鈩� apps (when written in Java鈩�) should use the to interact with AEM鈥檚 GraphQL APIs. The AEM Headless client, provided by the AEM Headless Client for Java鈩�, must be initialized with the AEM Service host it connects to.

Build configuration file

Android鈩� apps define 鈥減roductFlavors鈥� that are used to build artifacts for different uses.
This example shows how two Android鈩� product flavors can be defined, providing different AEM service hosts (AEM_HOST) values for development (dev) and production (prod) uses.

In the app鈥檚 build.gradle file, a new flavorDimension named env is created.

In the env dimension, two productFlavors are defined: dev and prod. Each productFlavor uses buildConfigField to set build-specific variables defining the AEM service to connect to.

• app/build.gradle

android {
    ...
    flavorDimensions 'env'
    productFlavors {
        dev {
            dimension 'env'
            applicationIdSuffix '.dev'
            buildConfigField "String", "AEM_HOST", '"http://10.0.2.2:4503"'
            ...
        }
        prod {
            dimension 'env'
            buildConfigField "String", "AEM_HOST", '"https://publish-p123-e789.adobeaemcloud.com"'
            ...
        }
    }
    ...
}

Android鈩� loader

Initialize the AEMHeadlessClient builder, provided by the AEM Headless Client for Java鈩� with the AEM_HOST value from the buildConfigField field.

• app/src/main/java/com/adobe/wknd/androidapp/loader/AdventuresLoader.java

public class AdventuresLoader extends AsyncTaskLoader<AdventureList> {
    ...

    @Override
    public AdventureList loadInBackground() {
        ...
        // Initialize the AEM Headless client using the AEM Host exposed via BuildConfig.AEM_HOST
        AEMHeadlessClientBuilder builder = AEMHeadlessClient.builder().endpoint(BuildConfig.AEM_HOST);
        AEMHeadlessClient client = builder.build();
        // With the AEM headless client initialized, make GraphQL persisted query calls to AEM
        ...
    }
    ...
}

When building the Android鈩� app for different uses, specify the env flavor, and the corresponding AEM host value is used.

This example, based on the example AEM Headless React app, illustrates how image URLs can be configured to connect to the correct AEM Services based on environment variables.

This example shows how prefix the image reference _dynamicUrl field, with a configurable REACT_APP_AEM_HOST React environment variable.

React environment file

React uses , or .env files, stored in the root of the project to define build-specific values. For example, the .env.development file contains values used for during development, while .env.production contains values used for production builds.

• .env.development

# Environment variable used to specify the AEM service the React app will connect to when running under this profile
REACT_APP_AEM_HOST=https://publish-p123-e456.adobeaemcloud.com
...

.env files for other uses by postfixing .env and a semantic descriptor, such as .env.stage or .env.production. Different .env file can be used when running or building the React app, by setting the REACT_APP_ENV before executing an npm command.

For example, a React app鈥檚 package.json may contain the following scripts config:

• package.json

...
"scripts": {
  "build:development": "REACT_APP_ENV=development npm run build",
  "build:stage": "REACT_APP_ENV=stage npm run build",
  "build:production": "REACT_APP_ENV=production npm run build"
},
...

React component

The React component imports the REACT_APP_AEM_HOST environment variable, and prefixes the image _dynamicUrl value, to provide a fully resolvable image URL.

This same REACT_APP_AEM_HOST environment variable is used to initialize the AEM Headless client used by useAdventureByPath(..) custom useEffect hook used to fetch the GraphQL data from AEM. Using the same variable to construct the GraphQL API request as the image URL, ensure that the React app interacts with the same AEM service for both use cases.

• 鈥荣谤肠/肠辞尘辫辞苍别苍迟蝉/础诲惫别苍迟耻谤别顿别迟补颈濒.箩蝉鈥�

...
// Import the AEM origin from the app's environment configuration
const AEM_HOST = env.process.REACT_APP_AEM_HOST; // https://publish-p123-e456.adobeaemcloud.com

let { data, error } = useAdventureByPath('/content/dam/wknd-shared/en/adventures/bali-surf-camp/bali-surf-camp')

return (
    // Prefix the image src URL with the AEM host
    <img src={AEM_HOST + data.adventureByPath.item.primaryImage._dynamicUrl }>
    {/* Resulting in: <img src="https://publish-p123-e456.adobeaemcloud.com/adobe/dynamicmedia/deliver/dm-aid--de43411-88ec-4c4d-b5ef-e3dc4bc0cb42/adobestock-175749320.jpg"/>  */}
)

This example, based on the example AEM Headless iOS鈩� app, illustrates how AEM image URLs can be configured to connect to different AEM hosts based on .

Build configuration

The XCode configuration file contains the default configuration details.

• Config.xcconfig

// The http/https protocol scheme used to access the AEM_HOST
AEM_SCHEME = https

// Target hostname for AEM service, do not include the scheme: http:// or https://
AEM_HOST = publish-p123-e789.adobeaemcloud.com
...

Image URL generator

In Aem.swift, the custom AEM headless client implementation, a custom function imageUrl(..) takes the image path as provided in the _dynamicUrl field in the GraphQL response, and prepends it with AEM鈥檚 host. This function is then invoked in the iOS views whenever an image is rendered.

• WKNDAdventures/AEM/Aem.swift

class Aem: ObservableObject {
    let scheme: String
    let host: String
    ...
    init(scheme: String, host: String) {
        self.scheme = scheme
        self.host = host
    }
    ...
    /// Prefixes AEM image dynamicUrl with the AEM scheme/host
    func imageUrl(dynamicUrl: String) -> URL {
        return URL(string: "\(self.scheme)://\(self.host)\(dynamicUrl)")!
    }
    ...
}

iOS view

The iOS view and prefixes the image _dynamicUrl value, to provide a fully resolvable image URL.

• WKNDAdventures/Views/AdventureListItemView.swift

import SDWebImageSwiftUI
...
struct AdventureListItemView: View {
    @EnvironmentObject private var aem: Aem

    var adventure: Adventure

    var body: some View {
        HStack {
            // Path the image dynamicUrl to `aem.imageUrl(..)` to prepend the AEM service host
            AdventureRowImage(imageUrl: aem.imageUrl(dynamicUrl: adventure.image()))
            Text(adventure.title)
            Spacer()
        }
    }
}
...

to connect to different AEM services. The build-specific values for the AEM_SCHEME and AEM_HOST are used based on the selected build in XCode, resulting in the custom AEM Headless client to interact with the correct AEM service.

This example, based on the , illustrates how AEM image URLs can be configured to connect to different AEM Services based on build-specific (or flavors) configuration variables.

Build configuration file

Android鈩� apps define 鈥減roductFlavors鈥� which are used to build artifacts for different uses.
This example shows how two Android鈩� product flavors can be defined, providing different AEM service hosts (AEM_HOST) values for development (dev) and production (prod) uses.

In the app鈥檚 build.gradle file, a new flavorDimension named env is created.

In the env dimension, two productFlavors are defined: dev and prod. Each productFlavor uses buildConfigField to set build-specific variables defining the AEM service to connect to.

• app/build.gradle

android {
    ...
    flavorDimensions 'env'
    productFlavors {
        dev {
            dimension 'env'
            applicationIdSuffix '.dev'
            buildConfigField "String", "AEM_HOST", '"http://10.0.2.2:4503"'
            ...
        }
        prod {
            dimension 'env'
            buildConfigField "String", "AEM_HOST", '"https://publish-p123-e789.adobeaemcloud.com"'
            ...
        }
    }
    ...
}

Loading the AEM image

The Android鈩� uses an ImageGetter to fetch and locally cache image data from AEM. In prepareDrawableFor(..) the AEM service host, defined in the active build config, is used to prefix the image path creating a resolvable URL to AEM.

• app/src/main/java/com/adobe/wknd/androidapp/loader/RemoteImagesCache.java

...
public class RemoteImagesCache implements Html.ImageGetter {
    ...
    private final Map<String, Drawable> drawablesByPath = new HashMap<>();
    ...
    public void prepareDrawableFor(String path) {
        ...

        // Prefix the image path with the build config AEM_HOST variable
        String urlStr = BuildConfig.AEM_HOST + path;

        URL url = new URL(urlStr);
        HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
        // Get the image data from AEM
        Drawable drawable = Drawable.createFromStream(is, new File(path).getName());
        ...
        // Save the image data into the cache using the path as the key
        drawablesByPath.put(path, drawable);
        ...
    }

    @Override
    public Drawable getDrawable(String dynamicUrl) {
        // Get the image data from the cache using the dynamicUrl as the key
        return drawablesByPath.get(dynamicUrl);
    }
}

Android鈩� view

The Android鈩� view gets the image data by way of the RemoteImagesCache using the _dynamicUrl value from the GraphQL response.

• app/src/main/java/com/adobe/wknd/androidapp/AdventureDetailFragment.java

...
public class AdventureDetailFragment extends Fragment implements LoaderManager.LoaderCallbacks<Adventure> {
    ...
    private ImageView adventureDetailImage;
    ...

    private void updateContent() {
        ...
        adventureDetailImage.setImageDrawable(RemoteImagesCache.getInstance().getDrawable(adventure.getPrimaryImageDynamicUrl()));
        ...
    }
...
}

When building the Android鈩� app for different uses, specify the env flavor, and the corresponding AEM host value is used.
