      Sample Multi-module project for Apache Sling:
      This is a project template for apache Sling based applications. It is built with 'Sling Multimodule Archetype' and is intended as a best-practice set of examples as well as a potential starting point to develop your own functionality.

      Modules:
      The main parts of the project are:
      core: Java bundle containing the core functionality such as servlets.

      ui.apps: contains the /apps (and /etc) parts of the project, ie Javascript, CSS, fonts, clientlibs and sample html files. This module has in-built HTML5Boilerplate files.

      How to build:
      To build all the modules run in the project root directory the following command with Maven 3: mvn clean install

      If you have a running Apache Sling instance you can build and package the whole project and deploy into Apache Sling with:
      mvn clean install -PautoInstallBundle

      Testing:
      You may verify if the bundles installed to Apache Sling at this url:
      http://localhost:8080/system/console/bundles

      Once open, search for the bundle name.
      You may also open the below url in a browser to check if the page installed properly: http://localhost:8080/apps/test/index.html

      The required UI files (Javascript, CSS, images) will be located at:
      http://localhost:8080/bin/browser.html/etc/clientlibs/test

      You may use the default Sling browser (http://localhost:8080/.explorer.html) or Composum (http://localhost:8080/bin/browser.html).

      Maven settings:
      The project comes with some settings under /core/pom.xml. You may change the Apache Sling's configs here. The default settings for Apache Sling are:
      http://localhost:8080

    Description

      As of now we do not have a multi-module archetype that allows users to create a sample project with multiple module.

      I'm working on to create a Multi-module archetype for Apache Sling. This allows users to create a project with "core" and "ui.apps" modules. The "autoInstallBundle" profile is also provided for each of the modules' pom.xml so code is built and deployed on Apache Sling.

      I added more information on using the created project in the file:
      https://github.com/ksurendra/sling/blob/multimodule-archetype/tooling/maven/archetypes/multimodule/src/main/resources/archetype-resources/README.md
