In some cases the default name matching between properties and fields is not enough, e.g. if you want to map jcr:title property. In such cases you can specify a name of a property from which to read the value. You can do this specifying the String argument in @JcrProperty which will instruct mapper to read a property of specified name.
...
It processes fields which are annotated with com.cognifide.slice.mapper.annotation.SliceReference. It allows for mapping of models from a different resource (path) than a current resource
The @SliceReference annotation takes a path as a value. The value can be either an absolute path (like /content/test/home/jcr:content/par) or child path (like childResource/grandChildResource) - then it will be resolved relatively to current resource. Bear in mind that parent resources (like ../../test) are not supported.
The value of a path can contain placeholders in form of: ${placeholderName}. This can be useful when the path is dynamic and changes depending on request, e.g. contains language. Instead of hardcoding the language in the path (like: /content/site/en/home), you can put placeholder and have this path to be dynamically evaluated, e.g. /content/site/${language}/home.
