------------------------------------------
Summary: Add support for transitive partialbundlelist dependencies
with the maven-launchpad-plugin
Key: SLING-2722
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-2722
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Maven Plugins and Archetypes
Reporter: Rupert Westenthaler
While the "maven-launchpad-plugin" does support the inclusion of
"partialbundlelist" by adding dependencies with the
<type>partialbundlelist</type> to the pom.xml file. It does only consider
direct dependencies and not transitive one.
Transitive dependencies would allow to create partial bundle list that add to
(depend on) others. This allows to make bundle lists self consistent without
repeating bundles (e.g. common libraries) over and over again.
It would also allow to define bundle lists for different 'levels': low level
lists for managing modules requires by services that are than merged to an
higher level bundle list that covers a user level feature.
To give a simplified Example: In Apache Stanbol I would like to use this
feature to create bundlelists like
* Apache OpenNLP
* Stanbol Enhancer component
* OpenNLP based NLP processing Enhancement Engines
* depends on OpenNLP
* depends on Stanbol Enahncer
