Hello JB,

It sounds good. How is the jar been run, will it unpack,dynamically? Is there 
provisions for config template or a mechanism for a container install?

Gruss
Bernd

Betreff: [PROPOSAL] features.deployer=[true|false] and new tool waiting Karaf 5

Hi guys,

Following the discussion on a previous mailing list thread, I moved forward on 
the features resolver.
I will submit a PR containing a new features.deployer=[true|false] property in 
etc/org.apache.karaf.features.cfg. If true, it’s the current behavior, nothing 
change (it’s the default). If false, we won’t use a full resolver, but a very 
simple one, just executing/installing what’s in the features xml/json.

On the other hand, waiting Karaf 5, I would like to propose a new tool 
(runnable/cli/maven) to "wrap" karaf distribution and user artifacts in a ready 
to run jar.
So, basically, it’s mean that we will be able to do something like:

    $ karaf-packager —version 4.3.2 —features-repos mvn:…,file:… —features foo, 
bar —name mystuff

And the result will be mystuff.jar able to do java -jar mystuff.jar
Of course, we will be able to include Karaf-packager in CI.

Thoughts ?

Karaf 5 already works this way and we did good progress on K5, I will share 
details pretty soon.

Regards
JB
