Hi Guenther, You can use CXF registering the CXF JAXRS server using DS.
Another option could be to use Aries JAXRS with the whiteboard pattern. We are preparing samples about that: https://github.com/jbonofre/karaf/tree/DEV_GUIDE/examples/karaf-rest-example I will add an example with Aries JAXRS and DS. With Aries JAXRS, you can simply do: @Component( property = { JaxrsWhiteboardConstants.JAX_RS_APPLICATION_SELECT + "=(osgi.jaxrs.name=.default)", JaxrsWhiteboardConstants.JAX_RS_RESOURCE + "=true" }, service = ExampleRest.class ) public class ExampleRest { @GET @Path("/{name}") public String sayHello(@PathParam("name") String name) { if (_log.isDebugEnabled()) { _log.debug("URI: " + _uriInfo.getAbsolutePath()); } return "Hello " + name; } @Context UriInfo _uriInfo; private static final Logger _log = LoggerFactory.getLogger( ExampleAddon.class); } Regards JB On 28/05/2018 19:40, Guenther Schmidt wrote: > Hello All, > > I’ve been developing services using Declarative Services for dependency > injection and it was a breeze so far.
