Jean-Baptiste Onofré commented on KARAF-2439:
---------------------------------------------
It sounds good. As reminder, with Karaf 2.x, the project has to use both
assemblies and features-maven-plugin (especially add-feature-to-repo goal) to
create the custom distribution. With Karaf 3.x, the project has to use a kar
file and karaf-maven-plugin (create-kar/install-kar goals).
> Karaf maven plugin should allow to export feature meta data so user can
> create start scripts for containers

> Key: KARAF-2439
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-2439
> Project: Karaf
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: karaf-tooling
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0.RC1
> Reporter: Christian Schneider
> Assignee: Christian Schneider
> Fix For: 3.0.0.RC2
>
>
> Some projects create distributions for karaf, felix and equinox.
> For karaf it is required to create feature repo file.
> For equinox and felix it is required to export the bundles into a flat
> directory and to create a start config that contains the bundles to be
> started and their start levels.
> So the idea is to only create a karaf feature repo file and create the other
> distros out of this information.
> Exporting the bundles into a flat structure is already implemented.
> Creating the configs for felix and equinox directly would restrict the
> maintainer of the distro too much. So we simply export the meta data of the
> resolved features into an xml file.
> A script from the distro can then use this information to create the configs.
