The command line arguments when launching brooklyn
include several commands for working with the catalog.
--catalogAdd <file.bom>
will add the catalog items in the bom
file--catalogReset
will reset the catalog to the initial state (based on brooklyn/default.catalog.bom
on the classpath, by default in a dist in the conf/
directory)--catalogInitial <file.bom>
will set the catalog items to use on first run, on a catalog reset, or if persistence is offIf --catalogInitial
is not specified, the default initial catalog at brooklyn/default.catalog.bom
will be used. As scanJavaAnnotations: true
is set in default.catalog.bom
, Brooklyn will scan the classpath for catalog items, which will be added to the catalog. To launch Brooklyn without initializing the catalog, use --catalogInitial classpath://brooklyn/empty.catalog.bom
If persistence is enabled, catalog additions will remain between runs. If items that were previously added based on items in brooklyn/default.catalog.bom
or --catalogInitial
are deleted, they will not be re-added on subsequent restarts of brooklyn. I.e. --catalogInitial
is ignored if persistence is enabled and persistent state has already been created.
