When generating a new AEM multi-module Archetype 27 project, what is the default location for the RepoInit script files?

Question

Options

• Aui.config/src/main/content/jcr_root/apps/<project-name>/config/
• Bui.config/src/main/content/jcr_root/apps/<project-name>/osgiconfig/config/
• Cui.config/src/main/content/jcr_root/config/
• Dui.config/src/main/content/jcr_root/apps/<project-name>/config/repo/

• A
  4% (2)
• B
  91% (41)
• C
  2% (1)
• D
  2% (1)

Explanation

Option B is correct because AEM Archetype 27 introduced the osgiconfig directory within ui.config as the canonical location for OSGi configurations, and RepoInit scripts are deployed as OSGi factory configurations (org.apache.sling.jcr.repoinit.RepositoryInitializer~<name>.cfg.json) - placing them under osgiconfig/config/ ensures they are picked up by the OSGi installer at the correct run mode scope.

Option A is wrong because it omits the osgiconfig intermediate directory; config/ directly under apps/<project-name>/ reflects an older project structure predating Archetype 27's reorganization. Option C is wrong because it drops the apps/<project-name> segment entirely, which would place configurations outside the project's application node - an invalid path for scoped OSGi configs. Option D is wrong because config/repo/ is not a recognized OSGi run-mode folder path; RepoInit configs belong in config/ (or a run-mode variant like config.author/), not a nested repo/ subfolder.

Memory tip: Associate the path with the acronym "OSGi configs go in osgiconfig" - whenever you see an OSGi-related configuration (including RepoInit), the folder chain is always apps/<project>/osgiconfig/config/, never bare config/ or an invented subdirectory like repo/.
