Hi,

We have some custom profiles for our project that we wanted the pax-runner
provisioning to pick up instead of going to the remote repository @
http://scm.ops4j.org/repos/ops4j/projects/pax/runner-repository/
As per the documentation @
http://paxrunner.ops4j.org/display/paxrunner/Advanced+profiles+topics the
way to specify a local repository is
pax-run --profilesRepositories=<URL of the repository>

I did that but nothing worked and by default it started the felix osgi run
time.

I have the following questions:

1.Do you have to create specific configuration files to indicate that a
location is a repository? I did see the remote default repository and i
could find 2 files -
http://scm.ops4j.org/repos/ops4j/projects/pax/runner-repository/runner-repository.ipr&;
http://scm.ops4j.org/repos/ops4j/projects/pax/runner-repository/runner-repository.iml
Since there is no documentation about these files (or i could not locate), i
found it difficult to define the same for the local repository.

2. How do you install profiles on maven repositories so that they can be
picked up? We use nexus for exposing the maven repositories.

3. I also wanted to specify start level at profile level. As per the
documentation one can use org.ops4j.pax.runner.platform.profileStartLevel
but how do you specify that as part of the configuration and not as a
command line parameter every time you have to start pax-run provisioning
system.

4. Since our system is under prototype phase at the moment and its evolving
as we speak, we might want the flexibility to auto-generate the profiles so
that they can pick any new bundle additions to any layer in the layered
architecture that we have at the moment. Is that facility already provided
by pax-runner or we need to think of building our own?

Best Regards,
Madhav
