Hallo David,
thanks for the explanation.
So, the configurator is just a "wrapper" for the ConfigAdminService to read
json and transfer it into a key value format, right?
I still have problems to use the
I put a test.json file in the OSGI-INF/configurator folder of a bundle with the
following content:
{
// Resource Format Version
":configurator:resource-version" : 1,
// First Configuration
"my.config":
{
"test.securityEnabled": false,
"test.test": false
}
}
In addition, I have an annotation for holding the values:
public @interface MyConfig
{
boolean test_securityEnabled () default true;
boolean test_test() default true;
}
Besides that, I've a custom GoGo command for configuration. But I am not sure,
if this is really needed for loading the json?
Unfortunately, the json is obviously not loaded.
Both values are set to true, according to the default value.
Do I have to do something in addition to load the json file?
Thanks,
Philipp

Betreff: Re: Configurator R7 example
Hi Philipp,
In the end the configuration specified with the Configurator will end up in
OSGi Configuration Admin, so the Configurator is limited to the same types as
ConfigAdmin. The Configurator allows complex JSON values to be specified, they
will end up as JSON text in Configuration Admin if they go beyond what
ConfigAdmin supports natively.
So to use the Configurator you need the Configurator bundle plus the
ConfigAdmin bundle.
The Configurator handles configuration resources in OSGI-INF/configurator
inside bundles but can also be provided with external configuration via the
configurator.initial framework/system property. This is described in sections
150.4 and 150.5 in [1]. To provide Configurator configuration into the system
you don't need to write any classes, but depending on how you use the
configuration you may have to add classes that consume it. But again, the
consumption can be done by anything that understands ConfigAdmin configs, so
there are a lot of options for this.
I'm not aware of a complete tutorial on this topic yet. I agree it would be
nice to have that.
Hope this helps,
David
