While working on Elasticsearch debugging, I just made a docker-compose file to start up an external Elasticsearch with plugins that Liferay DXP / 7 installed with debugging tools. Hope this would be helpful for somebody working on investigation of search. Liferay 7 GA6 / DXP fixpack 42 and onwards, Liferay uses Elasticsearch 6.1.3. According to the...

When you compare a CE release with an EE release, you'll find that there are a few additional modules that are only available in EE releases. In Liferay terms, these are called "private" modules. They are private in the sense that their source code doesn't exist in any public GitHub repositories (only private ones, and usually inside of a folder named "private"), and their binaries...
Introduction Recently I was building a fragment bundle to expose a private package per my blog entry, . In the original bnd.bnd file, I found the following: -dsannotations-options: inherit Not seeing this before, I had to do some research... Inheriting References So I think I just gave it away.

Introduction So once you've been doing some Liferay OSGi development, you'll recognize your component properties stanza, most commonly applied to a typical portlet class: @Component( immediate = true, property = { "com.liferay.portlet.add-default-resource=true", "com.liferay.portlet.display-category=category.hidden", "com.liferay.portlet.layout-cacheable=true", ...
Liferay Portal 7.0 CE GA6 Release was announced about 2 weeks ago and Liferay containerisers may desire to upgrade their Docker container to the new Liferay version. Well, this is a not so hard task to accomplish, but some steps can be not so obvious the first time one faces them. This is the reason behind this little guide on how to migrate from GA5 to GA6 inside a Docker container. ...
Just a quick blog post to talk about compile time vs runtime dependencies in the OSGi container, inspired by this thread: https://web.liferay.com/community/forums/-/message_boards/view_message/105911739#_19_message_106181351. Basically a developer was able to get Apache POI pulled into a module, but they did so by replicating all of the "optional" directives into the bnd.bnd...
Introduction On a project recently I had a Theme war and, like those themes you can download from the MarketPlace, I also had pages, contents and documents imported by the Resources Importer (RI) as a site template. Which is pretty cool, on its own, so I could deploy the theme and create a new site based on the theme and demo how it looks and works. But I ran into...

This one is for my good friend Milen... Sometimes he frustrates me, but he always forces me to think... Introduction So if you've done any Liferay 7.x CE or DXP development, you may have encountered something similar to the following in your build.gradle: dependencies { compileOnly group: "com.liferay.portal", name: "com.liferay.portal.kernel", version: "2.6.0" ...
An episode on the "Per" things: Performance and Permissions. I spoke to Preston Crary, who amazingly was not mad at me for losing an earlier recording. We're talking about these (and more) topics We open with the attention to detail that's required for working on performance tuning and some short conversation about this topic. Sadly, there's not often a single...

Introduction So originally I presented the blog post, Fronting Liferay Tomcat with Apache HTTPd daemon, but that post featured my partiality for using mod_jk to connect HTTPd and Tomcat. Personally I think it is much easier to do the JkMount and JkUnmount mappings to point to Tomcat, plus Liferay sees the original request so when it generates URLs, it can generate them...
A good friend of mine, Minhchau Dang, pointed out to me that I have frequently used OSGi version ranges in my blogs. I explained that I was concerned that I didn't want to bind to a specific version, I often wanted my code to work over a range of versions so I wouldn't have to go back and update my code. He pointed me at the...

A-Yes, you can! Below, I'll show you an example of how I did it (by customizing my indexes and mappings settings). Let's say that I have a web content article containing the word...
So the question comes up how to do Liferay upgrades. I'm not talking here about the technical details of how you upgrade one particular plugin to another type of plugin, what kinds of API changes have to be made, etc. Instead, I'm thinking more about the general process of how to upgrade, what choices you're presented with and what the ramifications are for making certain...
