$h2 Usage
The plugin can be used either as a regular Maven plugin or as a [bnd plugin](bnd.html).
No matter which approach you choose, the plugin will by default look for scripts in two project directories:
1. `src/main/scripts` - this folder will contain scripts that will be pre-compiled
2. `src/main/resources/javax.script` - this folder will contain scripts that will be embedded as is
The structure in these source directories should then follow the normal way of structuring scripts in an Apache Sling application. For more
details, check the [Sling Scripting](https://sling.apache.org/documentation/bundles/scripting.html#resource-script-naming-conventions)
page. In addition to the normal way of structuring scripts in the file tree, the plugin provides some additional features:
1. Resource Type Versioning<br/>
This works by putting the scripts in a folder that follows this simple naming convention: `<resourceType>/<version>/`. The `<version>`
should be a valid semantic version (e.g. `1.0.0`)
2. Defining explicit extends relationships (similar to the `sling:resourceSuperType` property)<br/>
An `extends` file in the resource type folder (versioned or not) allows defining this explicit relationship. This file must contain a
single line with the `resourceType` used for the `extends` capability attribute followed by a `;version=<version-range>`; in this
case, the plugin will set the `extends` attribute to the given `resourceType` and generate a `Require-Capability` for that
`resourceType` with the given version range. To generate an optional capability header (when the bundled script extends from
a non-bundle, resource script), append `;resolution:=optional` to the line. The line must comply with the OSGI common header syntax from [OSGI Core R7 ยง3.2.4](http://docs.osgi.org/specification/osgi.core/7.0.0/framework.module.html#framework.common.header.syntax).
3. Defining an explicit requirement, without an inheritance relationship (e.g. delegation to another resource type)<br/>
A `requires` file (assuming the same conventions and syntax as for the `extends` file) will generate a `Require-Capability` for each
line based on the given `resourceType` and version range.
4. The Resource Type can have the form of a path or of a Java package name (e.g. `com.mydomain.components.image`). When the resource type
is defined as a package name, the resource type label will be the last subpackage (i.e. for `com.mydomain.components.image`, the
resource type label will be `image`).
$h3 Defining scripts
As an example, let's assume the following layout:
```
src/main/resources/javax.script/
org.foo/1.0.0
foo.POST.html
```
This will generate following `Provide-Capability`:
```
sling.servlet;
sling.servlet.resourceTypes:List<String>="org.foo";
sling.servlet.methods:List<String>=POST;
version:Version="1.0.0"
```
For more complex examples head over to https://github.com/apache/sling-org-apache-sling-scripting-bundle-tracker-it/tree/master/examples.
$h3 Configure Maven Plugin
When used as a Maven plugin, the generated `Require-Capability` and `Provide-Capability` headers values are made available via
Maven project properties:
```
${org.apache.sling.scriptingbundle.maven.plugin.Require-Capability}
${org.apache.sling.scriptingbundle.maven.plugin.Require-Capability}
```
That makes it reasonably straightforward to use the plugin by just adding it into your build and use the two properties in the manifest
writing instructions of another plugin like the `maven-bundle-plugin`:
```
<plugin>
<groupId>${project.groupId}</groupId>
<artifactId>${project.artifactId}</artifactId>
<version>${project.version}</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>prepare-package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>metadata</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-bundle-plugin</artifactId>
<extensions>true</extensions>
<configuration>
<instructions>
<Provide-Capability>
${org.apache.sling.scriptingbundle.maven.plugin.Provide-Capability}
</Provide-Capability>
<Require-Capability>
osgi.extender;filter:="(&amp;(osgi.extender=sling.scripting)(version>=1.0.0)(!(version>=2.0.0)))",
${org.apache.sling.scriptingbundle.maven.plugin.Require-Capability}
</Require-Capability>
</instructions>
</configuration>
</plugin>
```
The `osgi.extender` requirement is mandatory to have the bundle wired up to the Apache Sling Servlets Resolver, but this should be manually
defined by the developers, so that their bundle is correctly wired up to whatever version of the Servlets Resolver is available on the
destination platform.
