[karaf 4.2] Config files, karaf assembly, feature.xml etc

[nino martinez wael]

Hi fellow karaflings

I want to either prepackage or install my configuration files into the etc
folder of karaf  when my feature installs.

I've tried a couple of different approaches, which all fails :( They fail
in the way that the configuration gets bound to the bundles mvn coordinates
and are not placed into the etc folder

*Approach 1 Feature file*

The following to techniques are supposed to place my configuration files
into the etc folder

Using the configfile element,

<feature>

...

<configfile finalname="/etc/dk.netdesign.dialer.cfg">
mvn:dk.netdesign.osgi-dialer/osgi-dialer-backend/${project.version}/cfg/configuration
</configfile>

...

</feature>




Using the config element

<feature>

...

<config name="dk.netdesign.dialer">

myobscurepropperty=ILoveKaraf:)

</config>

...

</feature>


*Approach 2 Karaf distribution with the karaf assembly plugin for
maven / prefered*

This approach will have the benefit of me being able to put in
configurations for some of the features / bundles that I do not
control

C:.
└───main
    ├───distribution
    │   └───text
    │       └───etc
    └───java
        └───dk
            └───netdesign
                └───osgidialer
                    └───dialer
                        └───karaf
                            └───assembly

In the etc folder I've placed my configuration file... But they never show
up in my karaf distribution.. I've done nothing special in the assembly
plugin, I wonder what I am doing wrong?
