MGNLUI-8652 Action for executing command on multiple items
When using
bulk: true
in theJcrCommandAction
, the command needs to be aware that there could be multiple identifiers present. Since this update, it is therefore theuuids
parameter (identifiers of all passed items) that handles this instead of the singlepath
anduiud
parameters used before the update.If you need to restore the previous behavior until you have properly migrated your Java code, you can leverage the method using the
uuid
andpath
parameters by settingbulk: false
in the command configuration. The method is still part of theJcrCommandParamsResolver
.- Example decoration
-
To ensure a correct decoration order, the <light-module>
must have a dependency todam-app-jcr
