Dear All,
I wanted to build a custom karaf distribution. I followed the guide
(http://karaf.apache.org/manual/latest/developers-guide/custom-distribution.html)
and was successful in getting a tar.gz and a zip file in the target folder.
The configuration I used was as follows:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.karaf.features</groupId>
<artifactId>framework</artifactId>
<version>3.0.1</version>
<type>kar</type>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.karaf.features</groupId>
<artifactId>standard</artifactId>
<classifier>features</classifier>
<version>3.0.1</version>
<type>xml</type>
<scope>runtime</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.example</groupId>
<artifactId>myfeatures</artifactId>
<classifier>features</classifier>
<version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<type>xml</type>
<scope>runtime</scope>
</dependency>
...
<build>
<finalName>custom-dist</finalName>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.karaf.tooling</groupId>
<artifactId>karaf-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0.1</version>
<extensions>true</extensions>
<configuration>
<bootFeatures>
<feature>standard</feature>
<feature>management</feature>
<feature>scr</feature>
<feature>wrapper</feature>
<feature>myfeatures</feature>
</bootFeatures>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
...
To get the distribution (tar,zip), I ran the following goals:
mvn karaf:install-kars karaf:instance-create-archive
However, I am stuck when I have to configure bouncy castle as the security
provider. Documentation says that to configure bouncycastle as the security
provider, I need to place the bouncycastle provider jar in the lib/ext
folder of karaf. Also, add the following to the config.properties under the
etc folder:
org.osgi.framework.bootdelegation=...,org.bouncycastle.*
org.apache.karaf.security.providers =
org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider
To customize logging, I need to add the following to the
org.ops4j.pax.logging.cfg:
log4j.logger.org.example=DEBUG, test
log4j.additivity.org.example=false
# test file appender
log4j.appender.test=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.test.threshold=DEBUG
log4j.appender.test.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.test.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{ISO8601} | %-5.5p |
%X{bundle.name} | %m%n
log4j.appender.test.file=${karaf.data}/log/test.log
log4j.appender.test.append=true
log4j.appender.test.maxFileSize=1MB
log4j.appender.test.maxBackupIndex=10
I have such customized files. However, I do I tell the karaf-maven-plugin to
include these customized files while creating the custom assembly?
The karaf documentation showed a deprecated method (using the
maven-assembly-plugin). However, I am curious to know if there is a graceful
way of achieving the same via a configuration option in the
karaf-maven-plugin to include customizations?
best regards
Sriraman.
