Hi,
this is just an information for those of you who are interested in using
Vaadin and OSGi together.
Although Vaadin is making V10+ OSGi compatible (adding manifests, using
BundleTracker instead of ServletContainerInitializer, etc.) they do not
yet have integrated Declarative Services as they did for V8-. The former
integration of V8- enabled a developer to declare a Vaadin UI to be a
component in OSGi, thus being able to reference other services. This is
not yet possible in V10+ where UIs are replaced by @Route annotated
classes.
I'm trying to add such an integration and if anyone on this mailinglist
is interested in such a support (I think at least Paul will be ;) ) then
don't hesitate to comment/vote up the respective issue at Vaadin
(https://github.com/vaadin/flow/issues/5017) or comment/contribute on/to
the implementation sketch (not working yet) at Github
(https://github.com/Sandared/flow-osgi)
As I'm fiddling around with (at least for me) advanced DS stuff, please
let me know if I do not adhere to some known best practises/am messing
up the implementation/did an awfully bad design or anything else (You
live and learn ;) ).
Kind regards,
Thomas
