We are currently discussing this on the karaf irc.
As the long term solutions are not yet ready I would use a practical
approach for now.
How about creating a feature with a list of bundles out of the
-runbundles that bndtools creates?
That would then not even require a repository.

Hi Christian,
Thank you very much for this discussion. It is very interesting (and
educational) since it is relevant to my current top priority: getting
our development—> deployment pipeline up and running quickly.
Getting back to more immediate practical matters…
Given that there is not currently a bnd plugin to create a features
file, and since I do not want to head in a solitary direction, what do
you recommend I do to automate the generation / installation of my
features?
What I have:
* OBR repositories “deployed” by the devs, which are handed over to
the deployer
* A Karaf command for the deployer to browse the available OBR repos
What I need:
* A means to actually install and start the bundles
I don’t mind doing this against the Features service in runtime, since
I am building a “deployment” service anyway, to be used by the deployer.
Any thoughts to help me get up and running quickly would be very
welcome. :-)
Cheers,
=David
