I am new to Tridion and learning DXA framework for my project.

I want to know how can I get page content from DXA framework for particular page request in a spring controller.

Can I use pageController or ContentProvider class. Please help to understand how to use DXA framework in spring MVC project.

  • can you add more information in your question specific to your scenario , DXA's PageController already gets the PageModel for all page requests using requestPath and ContentProvider, check code of these two classes, that should be helpful .

I am assuming you have understanding of basic flow of DD4T based content model where Component Template is directly connected with component view and Page Template is directly connected with Page view in your MVC based application.

DXA 1.2 come up with a ready-made website solution in Java. If you setup the DXA website code and debug the whole application you can understand the overall content flow. For more detail on architecture and content flow, you can go through documentation available in SDL Docs site and other blogs available on DXA. To start with DXA this blog can help you.

  • Which kind of stuff do you want to do in Http request? You can check EntityController, PageController if you can do your stuff there.. Commented Feb 3, 2016 at 8:35
