Hi, Oops, you are right, there is support for the "reference:" location protocol referring to a folder in Felix, so bundleContext.install("reference:file:/path/to/dir") should work.

JAR file is the canonical form of a bundle. It can be in other forms if supported by the framework impl. As mentioned Equinox supports a reference: URL protocol which does not copy the bundle into the framework persistent store but refers to an external store which can be either a jar or a director which matches a jar structure. I am pretty sure that Felix also supports the reference protocol. IBM J9 vm also has a JXE format which is supported by Equinox.
