Marcel Offermans commented on ACE-46:
-------------------------------------
There are three directions we could go in here:
1) Adding a feature to the "choose your bundle" dialog to import artifacts from
Nexus. Each imported bundle is then copied to the "internal" OBR of ACE.
2) Adding a feature to the "choose your bundle" dialog to import artifacts from
Nexus without copying them to the "internal" OBR of ACE.
3) Using Nexus as the "internal" OBR of ACE.
I would prefer going with option 1, or maybe 2. 3 is more work since we would
then have to support "uploading" bundles to Nexus too (and the "internal" OBR
also supports adding different types of artifacts).
A more advanced version of 1) would be a version where, if you select a bundle
in Nexus, it:
a) wraps it into a bundle if it is not already one (probably by using Pax URL),
or
b) analyze dependencies and present you with options to import those too, maybe
even automatically create a group for all those dependencies.
WDYT?
> Support Nexus OBR repositories direcly

> At http://osgi.sonatype.org are many (virtual) obr repositories.
> Would be could to support them directly in the server-obr setups and makes
> this whole story much more appealing (thousands, millions of bundles) when
> opening the "choose your bundle" dialog in webui (for example).
