| <p>This Maven plug-in aims to automate OBR (OSGi Bundle Repository) |
| management. It helps manage a local OBR for your local Maven |
| repository, and also supports remote OBRs for bundle distribution. The |
| plug-in automatically computes bundle capabilities and requirements, |
| using a combination of Bindex and Maven metadata.</p> |
| |
| <h2><a name="MavenOBRPlugin-Features"></a>Features</h2> |
| |
| <p>The maven-obr-plugin supports:</p> |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li>Management of both local and remote OBRs</li> |
| <li>Registering Maven and non-Maven artifacts with OBRs</li> |
| <li>Automatically discovering bundle capabilities and requirements</li> |
| <li>Customizing bundle descriptions</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| |
| <h2><a name="MavenOBRPlugin-Howtousethemavenobrplugin?"></a>How to use the maven-obr-plugin?</h2> |
| |
| <p>The plug-in offers five Maven goals:</p> |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li><b>install</b> adds the current bundle project to the local OBR</li> |
| <li><b>install-file</b> adds a local bundle file to the local OBR</li> |
| <li><b>deploy</b> adds the current bundle project to a remote OBR</li> |
| <li><b>deploy-file</b> adds a local bundle file to a remote OBR</li> |
| <li><b>clean</b> cleans the local OBR, removing missing bundles</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| |
| <p>Any of these goals can be disabled by setting <tt>-DobrRepository=NONE</tt></p> |
| |
| <h2><a name="MavenOBRPlugin-obr:install"></a>obr:install</h2> |
| |
| <p>The <b>install</b> goal updates the local OBR with the details of the installed bundle from the local Maven repository.</p> |
| |
| <p>(If the project has an <tt>obr.xml</tt> file somewhere in its resources, then it will be automatically detected and applied.)</p> |
| |
| <p>configuration:</p> |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li><em>obrRepository</em> path to local OBR, defaults to <em><local-maven-repository></em><tt>/repository.xml</tt></li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| |
| <p>To attach this goal to your project's lifecycle, use:</p> |

| <h2><a name="MavenOBRPlugin-obr:clean"></a>obr:clean</h2> |
| |
| <p>Sometimes you would like to clean your local OBR because it contains |
| bundles that are no longer in your local Maven repository. This case |
| often occurs when artifacts were deleted manually. The maven-obr-plugin |
| provides a simple goal to check for missing bundles, and remove them |
| from the local OBR.</p> |
| |
| <p>configuration:</p> |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li><em>obrRepository</em> path to local OBR, defaults to <em><local-maven-repository><tt></tt></em><tt>/repository.xml</tt></li> |
| </ul> |

| <h2><a name="MavenOBRPlugin-Concurrentupdates"></a>Concurrent updates</h2> |
| |
| <p>With a remote OBR, several uploads may occur at the same time. |
| However, the remote OBR is centralized in one file, so concurrent |
| modification must be avoided. To achieve this, the plug-in implements a |
| locking system. Each time the plug-in tries to modify the file it sets |
| a file based lock. If it can't take the lock, it will wait and retry. |
| After 3 attempts the upload process fails. To bypass this lock add <tt>-DignoreLock</tt> to the command-line (or add <tt><ignoreLock>true<ignoreLock></tt> to the configuration section of your Pom).</p> |
| |
| <h2><a name="MavenOBRPlugin-FTPprotocol"></a>FTP protocol</h2> |
| |
| <p>Not all protocols are supported by Maven out of the box. For example the ftp protocol requires the <b>wagon-ftp</b> component. To enable the ftp protocol add this to your Pom:</p> |

| </div></div> |
| |
| <h2><a name="MavenOBRPlugin-Howtheplugincomputesthedescriptionofthebundle"></a>How the plug-in computes the description of the bundle</h2> |
| |
| <p>The description of the bundle comes from three different sources:</p> |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li>Bindex : Bindex is a tool that analyzes a bundle manifest to generate OBR description</li> |
| <li>pom.xml : by analyzing the pom file, various information is collected (symbolic name ...)</li> |
| <li>obr.xml : this file contains customized description and capabilities for the bundle</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| |
| <p>These sources are merged together using the following precedence:</p> |
| |
| <div class="preformatted"><div class="preformattedContent"> |
| <pre>Bindex |
| | (overrides) |
| pom.xml |
| | (overrides) |
| obr.xml |
| </pre> |
| </div></div> |
| |
| <p>A warning message is displayed when existing information is overridden.</p> |
| |
| <h2><a name="MavenOBRPlugin-Knownissues&limitations"></a>Known issues & limitations</h2> |
| |
| <ol> |
| <li>obr.xml (file given by the user to add properties not found |
| by Bindex) must be correct, because the plug-in does not check its |
| syntax.</li> |
| </ol> |
