Hi JB, yes having some tutorials in the karaf docs makes sense. I am not yet sure how to best structure these. The current examples are often too simple to explain a certain technology. On the other hand I also do not yet have a really good concept.
I would also like to focus on just declarative services. I do not see a big future for blueprint. Another thing is the way we build bundles in the examples. In my newer tutorials I only use the bnd-maven-plugin. I also define the exported packages simply by a package info file with a version annotation. I think this makes the OSGi configs a lot simpler and avoids errors. See here for an example: https://github.com/apache/felix/blob/trunk/systemready/src/main/java/org/apache/felix/systemready/package-info.java This config can be put in a parent pom for all modules of an example. So indiviual modules do not need any OSGi config. https://github.com/apache/felix/blob/trunk/systemready/pom.xml#L38-L58 I think we really need to bring the examples and tutorials to the next level of best practices. As OSGi R7 support will arrive soon I plan to aim at R7 as target platform for upcoming tutorials (Similar to the new enroute). Christian Am Mi., 4.
