Log in to your computer, hosting and running your AEM 6.5 Forms instance, as an administrator.

Open the command prompt or terminal and run the following command to create AEM Archetype project (with forms options enabled):

• Microsoft Windows

   mvn -B org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-archetype-plugin:3.2.1:generate ^
   -D archetypeGroupId=com.adobe.aem ^
   -D archetypeArtifactId=aem-project-archetype ^
   -D archetypeVersion=41 ^
   -D appTitle="My Form" ^
   -D appId="myform" ^
   -D groupId="com.myform" ^
   -D includeFormsenrollment="y" ^
   -D aemVersion="6.5.15"

• Linux or Apple macOS

   mvn -B org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-archetype-plugin:3.2.1:generate \
   -D archetypeGroupId=com.adobe.aem \
   -D archetypeArtifactId=aem-project-archetype \
   -D archetypeVersion=41 \
   -D appTitle="My Form" \
   -D appId="myform" \
   -D groupId="com.myform" \
   -D includeFormsenrollment="y" \
   -D aemVersion="6.5.15"

When you execute the above command, be sure to consider the following points:

• Do not change the value of the aemVersion property from 6.5.15.0 to anything else.

• Set the archetypeVersion property to 41 or later. For latest version, see system requirements section in documentation.

• Update the command to reflect the specific values for your environment, including the appTitle, appId, and groupId. Also, set the value of the includeFormsenrollment property to y. If you use Forms Portal, set the includeExamples=y option to include Forms Portal Core Components in your project.

(Only for Archetype version 41 based projects) After the AEM Archetype project is created, enable themes for Core Components based Adaptive Forms. To enable themes:

1. Open the [AEM Archetype Project Folder]/ui.apps/src/main/content/jcr_root/apps/appId/components/adaptiveForm/page/customheaderlibs.html for editing:

2. Add the following code at line 21:

   code language-xml
   <sly data-sly-use.clientlib="core/wcm/components/commons/v1/templates/clientlib.html" data-sly-use.formstructparser="com.adobe.cq.forms.core.components.models.form.FormStructureParser" data-sly-test.themeClientLibRef="${formstructparser.themeClientLibRefFromFormContainer}"> <sly data-sly-test="${themeClientLibRef}" data-sly-call="${clientlib.css @ categories=themeClientLibRef}"/> </sly>

   

3. Save and close the file.

Update project to include latest version of Forms Core Components:

1. Open the [AEM Archetype Project Folder]/pom.xml for editing.

2. Set version of core.forms.components.version and core.forms.components.af.version to the latest Forms Core Components version and ensure both have the same version as Forms Core Components mentioned in the table, and set version of core.wcm.components.version as given in the WCM Core Components.

   note warning
   WARNING
   When creating an Archetype project with version 45, the [AEM Archetype Project Folder]/pom.xml initially sets the forms core components version to 1.1.28. Before building or deploying the Archetype project, update the forms core components version to 1.1.26. You can find the latest version in the AEM 6.5 Forms version history.

   note note
   NOTE
   If you set up any other topology, ensure that you add the submit, prefill, and other URLs to the allowlist at the Dispatcher layer.

3. Save and close the file.

After the AEM Archetype project is created successfully, build the deployment package for your environment. To build the package:

1. Navigate to the root directory of your AEM Archetype project.

2. Run the following command to build the AEM Archetype project for your environment:

   code language-shell
   mvn clean install

   

After the AEM Archetype project is successfully built, an AEM Package is generated. You can find the package at [AEM Archetype Project Folder]\all\target[appid].all-[version].zip

Use the Package Manager to deploy the [AEM Archetype Project Folder]\all\target[appid].all-[version].zip package on all the Author and Publish instances.
