When using AEM you are able of managing a lot of content of different types (e.g. pages, assets). AEM Dashboards provide an easy to use and customizable way to define pages that displays consolidated data.
註解:
AEM Dashboards are created on a per user basis, so a user can only access to their own dashboard.
However, Dashboard templates can be used to share common configuration and Dashboard layout.

You may want to have multiple dashboards to quickly see information about your content from different views. To help you to create new Dashboard, AEM provides a clone feature that you can use to duplicate an existing Dashboard. To clone a Dashboard, proceed as follows:
Dashboard components are nothing more than regular AEM components. This section describes reporting components shipped with AEM.
AEM ships with a set of components that render multiple metrics of your SiteCatalyst data. Those components are listed in the Sidekick under the Dashboard section.
Each reporting component provides at least three tabs:
- Basic: contains the main configuration.
- Report: contains the configuration specific of each report.
- Style: contains styling configuration like chart size and margin.
The reporting components are initialized with a default configuration that helps you to quickly set up your dashboard.
SiteCatalyst Configuration (optional)
The configuration you want to use to connect to SiteCatalyst. If not provided the configuration is assumed to be configured on the Dashboard page (via page properties).
In order to display web statistics, you need to define the date range of the data you want to fecth. The Report tab provides two fields to define that range.
註解:
Setting a large date range can decrease the responsiveness of the dashboard.



This component displays a graph showing the more visited section of a website according to the following configuration.


Dashboards are normal pages (cq:Page), therefore any components can be used to assemble Dashboards.
There is a default component group Dashboard containing analytics reporting components which are enabled on the template by default.
A template defines the default content of a new Dashboard. You may use several templates for creating different types of dashboards.
Dashboard templates are created like other page templates, except that they are stored under /libs/cq/dashboards/templates/. See the Creating Contentpage Template section.
註解:
Dashboard templates are shared between users.
Developing a Dashboard component consists of creating a regular AEM Component. This section describes an example of a component that displays the top 10 of contributors.

The top author components is stored in the repository at /apps/geometrixx-outdoors/components/reporting and is composed of :
- a jsp file that reads jcr data and defines the html placeholder.
- a client-side library containing one js file that fetches and orders the data, then fills the html placeholder.

The following Javascript file is defined in the geout.reporting.topauthors Client Library as a child of the component itself.
The QueryBuilder is used to query the repository to read cq:AuditEvent nodes. The query result is a JSON object from which author contributions are extracted.
$.ajax({ url: "/bin/querybuilder.json", cache: false, data: { "orderby": "cq:time", "orderby.sort": "desc", "p.hits": "full", "p.limit": 100, "path": "/var/audit/com.day.cq.wcm.core.page/", "type": "cq:AuditEvent" }, dataType: "json" }).done(function( res ) { var authors = {}; // from JSON to Object for(var r in res.hits) { var userId = res.hits[r].userId; if(userId == undefined) { continue; } var auth = authors[userId] || {userId : userId}; auth.contrib = (auth.contrib || 0) +1; authors[userId] = auth; } // order by contribution var orderedByContrib = []; for(var a in authors) { orderedByContrib.push(authors[a]); } orderedByContrib.sort(function(a,b){return b.contrib - a.contrib}); // produce the list for (var i=0, tot=orderedByContrib.length; i < tot; i++) { var current = orderedByContrib[i]; $("<div> #" + (i + 1) +" "+ current.userId + " (" + current.contrib +" contrib.)</div>").appendTo("#authors-list"); } });
