--------------------------------------------
Summary: [IGNITE 3] Packaging improvements
Key: IGNITE-15955
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-15955
Project: Ignite
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: build
Affects Versions: 3.0.0-alpha3
Reporter: Valentin Kulichenko
One of the ideas discussed in the scope of Ignite 3 was to provide a
lightweight download with the CLI tool, which will then allow to install core
artifacts and manage local node if needed. This however, seems to provide
significant complications with a little value, mainly for the following reasons:
* Core artifacts installation is a separate step that user has to perform.
* This approach poorly integrates with OS-specific packaging systems (RPM,
DEB.etc.) and with Linux services.
* CLI tool becomes cumbersome because it manages both local nodes and remote
cluster.
Proposing to create three separate downloadable ZIP packages:
* {{ignite-cli}} - contains only CLI tool, can be used to connect to a remote
cluster.
* {{ignite-core}} - contains Ignite core artifacts required to start local
nodes, and scripts to manage those nodes ({{{}ignite-start{}}},
{{{}ignite-stop{}}}, {{{}ignite-restart{}}}).
* {{ignite}} - meta package combining {{ignite-cli}} and {{{}ignite-core{}}}.
