Re: Jetty security defect

[Serge Huber]

Thanks for the work guys !

Am I understanding correctly that both Karaf 4.2 and 4.3 will get this
Jetty upgrade?

Thanks JB that's great news. Does this mean it can go all the way from 8 to
14 ?

Re: JDK 13/14 support for Karaf 4.2.10 and 4.3.0

[Serge Huber]

Thanks for the heads up. Btw is this an issue with ASM still for JDK 13/14?

It seems like an Unomi user has already run into this yesterday :)

Ok but if I understand correctly I need to use Karaf 4.2.8-SNAPSHOT to do
it ?

How do I setup the support for a custom distribution ?

Yes indeed this is exactly the problem I’m seeing. I guess we really need to 
use the KarafTestSupport finally :)

Re: Microkernel Karaf fit...

[Serge Huber]

Yes I understand what you mean, but in some ways the JVM needs big
improvements. The first one that comes to mind is getting rid of the
garbage collector because it causes so many difficult problems in
terms of predictability. One of the reasons I love Swift so much is
that it manages to do away with such a construct.

Also the JVM is (still) full of stuff that doesn't make that much
sense in a microkernel environment, especially for running
micro-services. But at least with Jigsaw it becomes possible to make
it lighter.

The overall memory consumption of JVMs is also a concern.

Anyway, realistically, what can we achieve today? JVMs like the
OpenJDK one still need a lot of OS-level services to operate, and in
the short term it will be difficult to do without.

Regards,
  Serge...

Re: Microkernel Karaf fit...

[Serge Huber]

Actually Project Loom is all about providing user mode threads to the
JVM, so no more context switches and large memory footprint. Their
objective is to be able to support millions of lightweights threads on
a JVM that could normally only handle thousands of threads.

  Serge...

Re: Microkernel Karaf fit...

[Serge Huber]

I was just looking at what Project Loom
(https://jaxenter.com/project-loom-trend-watch-jvm-ecosystem-147448.html)
could mean for the JDK. Imagine having Java Fibers available in Karaf
you could build a highly scalable microservices platform that
maximizes hardware usage like crazy. If this is paired with an
optimized microkernel or lightweight OS it could be useful for use
cases ranging from embedded platforms all the way to complex workloads
for enterprise applications.

You're welcome Christian, I love Karaf so those were not hard to write :)

I just wish there was something like Karaf and OSGi for Javascript
these days, I'm going crazy :)

Re: First user contributed story from openhab .. please participate too

[Serge Huber]

Actually I think I'll just put them in this thread, that'll go much
faster for me :)

For Apache Unomi:

"Apache Unomi was directly created using Apache Karaf as a runtime. We
needed a highly modular, high performance, scalable and open source
runtime for building this implementation. Apache Unomi has to store
millions of profiles and handle real-time processing of rules based on
events generated from visitor behavior into an ElasticSearch backend.
OSGi fit the bill perfectly for the technology architecture and Apache
Karaf come out of the box with everything we needed to have a
full-fledged and reliable runtime" - Serge Huber, Apache Unomi creator

For Jahia :

"Jahia has used various technologies at its core and has been using
OSGi for its module system for quite some time now. Initially, we used
Apache Felix as a runtime, but quite quickly we realized we needed
more powerful logging, better provisioning, clustering and monitoring
support. Apache Karaf fit the bill perfectly and to the point where we
are using it as much as possible, especially since the community
around the project has been very helpful and addressing a lot of our
needs. We can therefore strongly recommend Apache Karaf as a runtime."

Actually I think I'd like to improve the Apache Unomi and Jahia ones,
to give more details about how Karaf is used and why it was chosen.

I'll try to see if I can get a PR ready.

10 reasons why you should Apache Karaf as your next application runtime

[Serge Huber]

Hello,

I guess I'm inspired this weekend :)

Here's a document I put together quickly: 10 reasons why you should
use Apache Karaf as your next application runtime :
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1b1aJ_qimFxPxD9BDtaq21sW_h43kWUXrLVTWAFR_Coc/edit?usp=sharing

This list was compiled mostly from memory and from what came first to
my mind so it is probably far from perfect and I know it is not
exhaustive. But I hope that despite this it presents quickly some of
the most important parts of Karaf.

Again the document has commenting activated and don't hesitate to
request edit access if you'd like.

Regards,
  Serge...

Re: Comparison between Karaf, Spring & NodeJS

[Serge Huber]

I think this exercice might prove interesting to illustrate what might
be missing to have a strong on-boarding scenario. For me there is very
little needed to have a much stronger story than any other frameworks
!

And to prove to you I believe this I started another document today:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1cZp-KymYOVgpBiHVPdLAYfKY81U_LzfqVYCIcVd2Mfg/edit?usp=sharing

The idea is to offer arguments to migrate to Karaf from Spring or
NodeJS. The list is by no means complete and feel free to comment or
request editing access to add more or correct any mistakes I might
have made.

I hope all of this is helpful. I still believe Karaf has a huge
potential that needs to be realized, it just needs to be properly
communicated.

Regards,
  Serge...

Re: Comparison between Karaf, Spring & NodeJS

[Serge Huber]

Hello everyo
I've just started a Google Document where I started a step-by-step
comparison of creating a REST service with Karaf and Spring Boot. I
used a guide from Spring boot as a starting point and copied all the
steps over from there. I haven't done the Karaf part because I'm sure
others can do it and I'm a little pressed for time this morning.

I think this is actually a fun exercice and a learning experience for
the Karaf community. It should hopefully help us onboard developers
that know the Spring Platform.

At the end of the document I have added a list of other examples that
could be detailed, but I need some help being inspired here. I think
we should as much as possible highlight the strengths of Karaf.

I think the most difficult part of this exercice is to avoid bashing
Spring because that is not really my objective. The objective is to
show integrators and developers considering Spring that there is a
strong (and in my opinion stronger) alternative in Apache Karaf.

Here's the link to the document, anyone can comment by default but if
you want to have edit permissions please don't hesitate to ask.

Hi JB,

You should have edit access now.

If anybody else wants to have access please don't hesitate to request
it on the document directly.

Re: Comparison between Karaf, Spring & NodeJS

[Serge Huber]

Hello François,

Concerning the comparison with NodeJS it is not mandatory but I
thought it would make sense to compare Karaf to popular technologies
to build web platforms. The idea is to position Karaf as a perfectly
acceptable alternative to those two other frameworks.

  Serge...

Re: Comparison between Karaf, Spring & NodeJS

[Serge Huber]

Thanks JB for the quick feedback. You're right that having code
comparisons would also be great. Unfortunately I have little
experience with Spring Boot so I didn't go down that path right away,
but I agree we should. Maybe I'll start a Google Doc with some tables
to prepare the flow of the comparison.

Comparison between Karaf, Spring & NodeJS

[Serge Huber]

Hi all,

Following an interesting discussion on how to promote Apache Karaf
with JB at ApacheCon and in Paris, I suggested to compare Karaf to
Spring in a grid format and publish it on the website.

I wanted to get the ball rolling so I started a Google Spreadsheet here:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Js5qTXXugEOsp-5kUYoUbCKP1xt1dUx8efWZcGbm6C4/edit?usp=sharing

By default commenting is allowed, so please don't hesitate. The
entries with a question mark are answers I don't have.

Also, the point is to make this as precise as possible, so it's quite
probable I made some mistakes because I might be biased towards Karaf
:)

cheers,
  Serge...

Re: Any plans for supporting JDK 11 ?

[Serge Huber]

Thanks a lot for all this information. I had some questions about JDK 11
support and you've given lots of details that I will be able to relay
internally.

And of course thanks a lot for all the hard work, I wish I could contribute
more :)

cheers,

Any plans for supporting JDK 11 ?

[Serge Huber]

Hello,

With the upcoming release of JDK 11 (planned for September), I was
wondering what the plans for supporting it looked like ? Are we expecting
any kind of blocking problems ? Should be simpler than JDK 9 I think.

I didn't follow the JDK 10 support, did that involve any problems ?

Hi JB,

I tried editing the generated file manually but for some strange reason it
doesn't seem to install my features, maybe I did a stupid mistake ? I did
all of this in the generated target/exam/*/ folder.

Here's the features.cfg contents:

Even if it did work, this file is generated by Pax Exam so it's not clear

Sorry about all the questions, but I'm really struggling with this.

Re: Help needed with Karaf 4 Integration test writing

[Serge Huber]

Thanks Oliver & JB for your quick answers.

I've checked the generated org.apache.karaf.features.cfg file and it has
some strange contents:

*#Modified by paxexam*

*#Fri Mar 02 16:59:52 CET 2018*

*featuresBootAsynchronous=false*

*featuresBoot=instance, package, log, ssh, aries-blueprint, framework,

*featuresRepositories=mvn\:org.apache.karaf.features/framework/4.1.5/xml/features,
mvn\:org.apache.karaf.features/spring/4.1.5/xml/features,
mvn\:org.apache.karaf.features/standard/4.1.5/xml/features,
mvn\:org.apache.karaf.features/enterprise/4.1.5/xml/features,mvn\:org.ops4j.pax.web/pax-web-features/3.1.0/xml/features,mvn\:org.apache.karaf.features/standard/4.1.5/xml/features,mvn\:org.ops4j.pax.web/pax-web-features/3.1.0/xml/features,mvn\:org.apache.cxf.karaf/apache-cxf/3.1.10/xml/features,mvn\:org.apache.karaf.cellar/apache-karaf-cellar/4.1.0/xml/features,mvn\:org.apache.unomi/unomi-kar/1.3.0-incubating-unomi_5_karaf4_1-SNAPSHOT/xml/features,mvn\:org.apache.unomi/unomi-router-karaf-feature/1.3.0-incubating-unomi_5_karaf4_1-SNAPSHOT/xml/features,mvn\:org.ops4j.pax.exam/pax-exam-features/4.11.0/xml*

I seems the wrap feature is listed twice, not sure if that is a problem.

I installed the unomi-kar and unomi-router-karaf-feature as boot features
because this is what is done in the Karaf package, but I don't have a
problem changing this for the integration tests. I'm just not sure how this
can be achieved ? Do you have an example or some documentation ? I checked
the Karaf documentation but I couldn't find anything related to injection
or executeCommand.

  Serge...

Help needed with Karaf 4 Integration test writing

[Serge Huber]

contextServerRepo, "unomi-kar"),
features(routerRepo, "unomi-router-karaf-feature"),
// we need to wrap the HttpComponents libraries
ourselves since the OSGi bundles provided by the project are incorrect
wrappedBundle(mavenBundle("org.apache.httpcomponents",
"httpcore").versionAsInProject()),
wrappedBundle(mavenBundle("org.apache.httpcomponents",
    "httpmime").versionAsInProject()),
wrappedBundle(mavenBundle("org.apache.httpcomponents",
"httpclient").versionAsInProject())
};

It seems the problem is that the "unomi-router-karaf-feature" uses the wrap
protocol but the resolver can't use it because it's also being deployed as
a feature. It seems I need to specifiy it as a startup feature but I don't
know how to achieve that.

If you prefer to have a look at the repository, you can find the full
integration test here :

https://github.com/apache/incubator-unomi/tree/feature-UNOMI-5-KARAF4-1/itests

I'm quite stuck with this, so any help would be greatly appreciated !

cheers,

Problem with Karaf integration tests - The forked VM terminated without properly saying goodbye

[Serge Huber]

Hello,

I’m really at a loss on a problem with my Karaf integration tests in the Apache 
Unomi project. I hope someone will have seen this before and can help. 

Basically I’m getting the following error message when running the tests : 

[ERROR] Please refer to

 for the individual test results.

Re: Why is karaf so much easier to get working than older OSGi containers?

[Serge Huber]

I think that Karaf Boot is also important to get people started quickly. Or
maybe even some kind of CLI interface and container integrations.

I still find that building a new project with my own custom distribution is
a big more work than I would like.

Not to say that I don't love Karaf, I'm using it in more and more projects
(4 professional and 2 personal !)

cheers,

Thanks for the very quick reply, I just tested doing that and it works, I just 
had to deploy the updated bundle in the system directory of the archive.

"Patching" bundle installed from startup.properties

[Serge Huber]

Hello,

I’m running into this problem on my Karaf 3.0.8 application : 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARIES-1540 


Since the version of CXF that corrects this is not out yet I need to update the 
org.apache.aries.blueprint.core version from 1.6.1 to 1.6.2 which includes a 
fix for offline startup. 

The problem is that in Karaf 3 this bundle is installed from the 
startup.properties, and I’m using the karaf-maven-plugin to build an archive 
for my application (Apache Unomi). 

From what I see I have two options:
1. provide a custom startup.properties and copy the 
org.apache.aries.blueprint.core-1.6.2.jar to the system directory manually 
2. provide a new framework KAR that copies the original one and modifies the 
version

I tried using the “overrides.properties” file but it doesn’t work for this in 
Karaf 3 since it only work for features that are deployed on startup. 

Currently I have this in my Maven build : 



org.apache.karaf.features
framework
kar

...

org.apache.karaf.tooling
karaf-maven-plugin


install-kar
compile

install-kars



package

instance-create-archive





wrapper


standard
management
ssh
config
region
package
kar
war
cxf
cellar
unomi-kar



Would it work if I define a second compile-time dependency that provides a 
second bundle with a different version ? Would it override the first one ? 

cheers,
  Serge…

Re: Karaf Cellar question: how to get cluster node information programmatically ?

[Serge Huber]

Hi JB,

Thanks for your quick answer. 

It’s the next step that I’m having trouble with. Once I have the Node, what’s 
the best way of accessing it’s JMX data ? Is there something provided by Cellar 
or should I just use regular JMX RMI connectors ?

cheers,

Karaf Cellar question: how to get cluster node information programmatically ?

[Serge Huber]

Hi all,

I’ve seen that it’s possible to list the cluster nodes from the ClusterManager 
information, but I was wondering if there was a way to retrieve system 
information from the nodes, such as stuff that is accessible through JMX 
(uptime, load, etc..)

I’d like to do this programmatically but I need some help :)

Re: Embedding Karaf in a WAR (Tomcat)

[Serge Huber]

Hi Achim and Martin, 

Actually my own company is going through this transition, but for the moment 
our main application (CMS) still has to be deployed within web containers such 
as Tomcat or WebSphere. So using an Http Bridge is a hard requirement for the 
moment. 

As soon as we can drop this requirement we will but in the meantime we want a 
bridge that can be as feature-ful as possible. Currently we use the Felix Http 
Bridge in production but I’m really hoping we can switch to the new Pax Web 
Bridge soon, as it is a *lot* better.

Yes it is indeed strange to have this bridge because you can potentially have a 
web application within a web application (but at the same time this is kinda 
cool, ok I’m a nerd :)). Anyway, I believe it can be an interesting migration 
path for a lot of existing web applications out there. 

Let’s get everyone on Karaf & Pax Web :) Who needs Node.js ? :) 

cheers,
  Serge…

Re: Embedding Karaf in a WAR (Tomcat)

[Serge Huber]

Yes I’ve been working on a PAX Web Bridge that is much more powerful than the 
Http Bridge but is not yet fully implemented. 

This way you could bootstrap a Karaf container inside a web application and 
then deploy servlet, JSP, tag libraries and filters and serve complex web 
requests from OSGi bundles deployed inside the embedded Karaf container.

The PAX Web Bridge ongoing work is here : 
https://github.com/ops4j/org.ops4j.pax.web/tree/PAXWEB-606-Servlet-Bridge

Btw I need help to work on the bridge, because I’m currently lacking time to 
work on it.

Re: The backspace key does not work in 4.0.2 SSH (from Putty)

[Serge Huber]

Ok I just tested this on my Windows 10 machine and Karaf 4.0.4

If I start karaf using “karaf start” from the CMD.exe and use the shell console 
the backspace key and arrow key work normally. I tested with the Windows 
Powershell and it works fine also.

If I connect using Putty to the SSH Shell then the backspace key doesn’t work 
and it looks like a whitespace characters is inserted. So it might be something 
to do with the detection of the terminal emulation with Putty. Also the up and 
down arrows keys also seem to have issues because the line doesn’t seem to be 
properly erased. It seems mostly like a display issue because if I enter “aa” 
and hit backspace and then enter, Karaf tries to execute a command called “a”, 
so the backspace has indeed modified the string properly. The same is true for 
the up and down arrows. I tested this with Putty 0.62, 0.66 (beta) and the 
latest snapshot (2016-01-04.51465fa and the behavior was the same in all of 
them. I use the default settings.

I also tested with AbsoluteTelnet10.12 (demo license) and I got the exact same 
behavior. 

I hope this information helps.

I also copied all this information into the ticket.

cheers,
  Serge…

Karaf 4.0.0 and Integration Tests

[Serge Huber]

Hello Karaf-ers,

I am trying to setup integration tests using Karaf 4.0.0 and I’m basing my code 
on the itests project in the Karaf source code. 

I was having an issue at startup that looked like this :

It took me a while to track down the origin of this problem until I realized 
that the problem comes from the apache-karaf-4.0.0.tar.gz itself ! Specifically 
the etc/org.apache.karaf.features.cfg file contains the following hardcoded 
path : 

featuresRepositories = \

file:/x1/asf/karaf/k40x/target/checkout/assemblies/apache-karaf/target/assembly/system/org/apache/karaf/features/framework/4.0.0/framework-4.0.0-features.xml,

mvn:org.apache.karaf.features/spring/4.0.0/xml/features, \
mvn:org.apache.karaf.features/standard/4.0.0/xml/features

It’s not entirely clear 

Karaf Scheduler API issue

[Serge Huber]

Hi,

I'm been playing with the Karaf Scheduler lately, and it works well with
the whiteboard pattern, but I'd like to be able to use the Scheduler
service that is registered. Unfortunately it's not possible because the
schedule method on that service throws an org.quartz.Scheduler that is not
exported by the Karaf Scheduler bundle.

Maybe the exception should be wrapped into a new Exception defined by the
bundle instead ? Because even if it is re-imported from another bundle I'm
guessing there will be problems with class loading because the class
instance will be generated from another class loader.

Regards,
  Serge...

Re: Help need with Karaf 4.0.0 + CXF 3.1.1

[Serge Huber]

I think I found the culprit, in my config.properties file I have the
following settings :

#
# Extra packages appended after standard packages
#
org.osgi.framework.system.packages.extra = \
javax.annotation.security;version=1.2, \
javax.annotation.sql;version=1.2, \
javax.annotation;version=1.2, \

Why is this added here ?

  Except that I'm not using JDK 8 but JDK 7
 
  However I'm seing something really strange with the framework bundle.
 If
  I look at the web console for my bundle I see the following imports :
 
  javax.annotation,version=1.0.0 from org.apache.felix.framework (0)
  http://localhost:8181/system/console/bundles/0
  javax.annotation,version=1.2.0 from org.apache.felix.framework (0)
  http://localhost:8181/system/console/bundles/0
 
  whereas on the felix.framework bundle I see this :
 
  javax.annotation,version=1.0.0
  javax.annotation,version=1.2.0
 
  however in Karaf's jre.properties I do only see the following for
 jre-1.7 :
 
  jre-1.7= \
   javax.accessibility, \
   javax.activation;version=1.1, \
   javax.activity, \

 to install the appropriate bundle for it.

 regards, Achim

 2015-07-24 16:36 GMT+02:00 Serge Huber shu...@jahia.com:

 Hi JB,

 Thanks for the quick answer. I'm not sure I understand though, should I
 update it to 1.2 ? I thought JDK 7 doesn't support it ? Any idea also why
 I'm seeing the export with two versions ?

 Cheers,
   Serge

 I tried that but it didn't solve the problem. I'm still trying to

 I'm guessing that someone something is getting picked up in version 1.2 but
 I'm not sure how.

 I'm not doing something very special or unique, just setting up Karaf +

Re: ApacheCon EU ?

[Serge Huber]

Sounds great but you might want to sync with JB because he gave a speech at 
ApacheCon NA that seemed similar in content.

I think we should also talk about how great a stack Karaf is in relation to 
other Apache projects, so maybe have a title such as “Start your next project 
with OSGi  Karaf” ? And then go into details about all the stuff you can build 
using it. Because it seems to me that a lot of people are not looking at it 
right and should be basing their projects on it instead of doing POJA (plain 
old Java Applications) such as Spring Boot or another monolothic monster :)

cheers,
  Serge…

Hello fellow Karaf users,

Are there any plans for one or more Karaf talks at ApacheCon EU ? With
version 4 just being released I think it would be great to promote it.

I could help out on the users part, talking about what we do with it, but
unfortunately I can't submit a proposal all by myself because I'll be
incredibly busy at that time with other stuff hopefully also related to the
ASF as I hope to start an incubator project and get it promoted at
ApacheCon.

But I would love to help promote Karaf in any way possible because I love
the project !

Re: Karaf and Docker

[Serge Huber]

James, I don't think JB cared. He was probably more than happy to have a
discussion than to have to simply walk through slides without any feedback.
At least that's how I prefer it.

Personally I think that OSGi is really a great way to make sure that people
get into the good practice about thinking about the full lifecycle of code,
not just developing it and starting it, but also shutting it down, and what
happens when dependencies are not present or shutdown.

In that regard I've seen that in our team since we switched to OSGi,
although it took a little investment in terms of getting used to it, people
are a lot more productive because they can focus on the module they are
building without having to restart the whole container. This is a huge
improvement over Docker type of deployments where rebuilding and restarting
a container can take a lot longer to test a single change.

I believe that OSGi is also more than proven since it has been around for a
long time, and it is defined by a standard body that is quite significant.
I just wish it would get adopted more, and hopefully Karaf will help with
this effort.

Not to make me say that Docker or Spring Boot or the Play Framework don't
have their merits, but I think that it is not enough to look at the time to
get started, it is also important to look at the TMDT (an acronym I just
made up : Total Maintenance and Deployment Time :)).

cheers,
  Serge...

 do with Docker, necessarily.  Docker is merely a tool people employ to
 implement a deployment strategy.  I think it basically boils down to the
 notion that in the cloud era, it's simpler and cheaper to spin up a new
 node configured the way you want.  Cloud-enabled applications need to be
 cloneable in this way already, so you kind of get this benefit for free.

 This doesn't mean we can't use OSGi to piece together these nodes.  OSGi
 isn't only about being able to runtime-refresh your modules.  There are
 many other benefits of the OSGi programming model that make it suitable for
 building statically-configured applications as well.

 Just my $0.02

 Interesting discussion indeed.

 I'm currently at ApacheCon US and I've taken a few opportunities to
 promote Apache Karaf which surprisingly few people know about. But again
 what I was describing earlier is really a frequent feedback : is modularity
 worth the trouble when I can built micro-services that are actually
 running in docker containers ? Although I am convinced that the two are not
 in opposition, I think it would be great to have a killer use case to
 demonstrate what the benefits of using Karaf would be.

 I'm really looking forward to meeting Jean-Baptiste in person ! I love
 Karaf and I hope to be able to exchange with him a few experiences around
 it.

 Hey,

 yes I fully agree, also with the Spring-Boot stuff.
 as already stated on the other thread, I think there are certain cases
 where Docker images are useful.
 For a POC, for CI I think a Docker Image is useful. In the end if you
 want to run it in Production I rather have the Ansible setup.

  Serge,

 Package the world applications were able to be built easily before
 Docker
 was around.  Docker is simply a different way of deploying an
 application
 virtually.

 In my experience, developers who package the world with their code
 are
 usually either biased against modularity or just don't feel like
 putting
 forth the effort.  Many technologies in use today take effort to
 figure
 out.  A lot of developers seem to feel that any technology that
 requires
 effort above the maven shade plugin or using shell scripts to dump all
 their jars to a server isn't worth their time.

 Developers that care about the quality of the code or applications
 they
 produce won't be deterred from a technology they believe will help
 them
 make better applications just because it takes a little bit of
 effort.  How
 did less experienced developers manage to survive when the only real
 choices for writing software was assembly, c or c++?

  Very interesting thread guys :)

 Actually I recently started a project integrating Karaf with
 ElasticSearch and for me it was a little like what you guys are
 describing
 in this thread. ES, at least in the early versions is quite
 monolithic and
 it would clearly benefit from a framework such as OSGi. For example,
 the
 clustering technology is quite interesting but why can't it be reused
 without all the other stuff ? Or maybe you want to wire things a
 little
 differently ? Not have everything directly listen to ports without
 any
 security but be able to plugin whatever filter or modules you need ?

 Personally I think that what is really needed in OSGi is better
 tooling,
 especially for making it a lot simpler to build high quality and
 minimalistic bundles. Using the maven-bundle-plugin or the
 shader-plugin is
 quite tedious and possibly error prone. I've built my own Maven
 plugin on
 top of the bundle plugin so that it can handle a lot more resources
 (including JSPs that include taglibs for example) and that also
 tries to be
 smarter at generating import-package statements. This makes it
 easier for
 OSGi newbies to adopt the technology.

 I'm also worried that the initial learning curve of OSGi might be
 putting less experienced developers off and more towards
 package-the-world
 solutions such as Docker, which while acceptable for some cases such
 as
 continuous integration, could also be dangerous if not maintained
 properly.

 In the end there are mostly more slopy/lazy people around[1] trying to get 
 something going, that's why Docker will be sufficient enough, while the 
 dynamic and re-configurable service oriented software architecture will be 
 on the decrease. One just needs to follow that Microservice hype. 
 Docker/SpringBoot are just part of this mantra :D
 In the end people will just split their Monolithic rubbish up to different 
 small Monolithic piles of rubbish, but in case one of them is failing, 
 they'll end up with one big failing pile of rubbish. 
 
 Besides this rant, I think building a custom Karaf with your application on 
 top, distributable as Docker image. Or as I did for a showcase building a 
 base Karaf Docker Image for Continuous Integration/Delivery Pipeline is a 
 good combination. As long as it's possible to configure the services inside 
 this docker image from the outside.

 I should also introduce myself, I'm the CTO at Jahia, and we have

 called The Context Server (https://github.com/Jahia/unomi). This is
 actually the reference implementation of a standard we are proposing at

 I would love to get an opportunity to talk to you, especially concerning

 Hi all,
 
 As you may know, since Friday, the Karaf folder is no more available on the 
 dists mirror, preventing the download of the distribution.
 
 A workaround is to download the distributions from Maven Central:
 
 http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/apache/karaf/apache-karaf/
 
 During the week end, I dealt with INFRA about the dists mirror sync issue, as 
 the Karaf dists svn pubsub looks good.
 I created a Jira:
 
 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-8566
 
 It's a mistake/change from the INFRA, they are working on it. It should be 
 fixed soon (the time of the sync).

/karaf directory missing on Apache Distribution site ?

Hello all,

I wanted to download Apache Karaf 3.0.2 this morning but I couldn't because
it seems the whole /karaf directory is missing from both :

http://www.eu.apache.org/dist/

and

http://www.us.apache.org/dist/

What is strange is that yesterday it was still there.

Best regards,
