Re: [RT] Feature archives, launcher and Sling Starter

Right, the proposed idea does not invalidate the usefulness of the kickstart project. I think they are complementary. Feature archives allow to distribute a complete feature without requiring any additional infrastructure (like a maven repository) Regards Carsten On 25.03.2020 19:12, Andreas

Re: [RT] Feature archives, launcher and Sling Starter

Good idea, we could make this a default directory that the launcher uses to find feature files and archives - if not specified. Regards Carsten On 25.03.2020 14:37, Konrad Windszus wrote: In any case, we should probably add support to the feature launcher to launch feature archives directl

Re: [RT] Feature archives, launcher and Sling Starter

Yes, right, we should be able to run the launcher directly using the archive as a maven repository without extracting it. Regards Carsten On 25.03.2020 10:37, Karl Pauls wrote: Add this point I'm a little bit unsure which way to go with the starter, therefore asking for feedback. I'm currently

Thanks Bertrand, good points - yes with switching to the feature model we will still have these. And I think we already have nearly everything in place for 3) Regards Carsten On 25.03.2020 10:31, Bertrand Delacretaz wrote: Hi, On Wed, Mar 25, 2020 at 10:21 AM Carsten Ziegeler wrote: ...Ad

[RT] Feature archives, launcher and Sling Starter

Hi, our current Sling starter project is still using the provisioning model. It creates a startable jar and a webapp out of it. Moving forward we want to switch to the feature model. We already discussed in previous discussion that supporting a webapp is not necessary. If demanded by users i
