So! I have now created a relatively restrictive proof of concept. https://github.com/mnybon/cxf-osgi-activator
The project looks for service registrations with jax-rs annotations on their services. When it finds one it builds a server for it and registers it in CXF. There is not much doc yet but there is a simple integration test and test resources which works well as a sample. Basically, what is possible right now is the following: Registering classes as services by registering them as an OSGi service. Registering services at runtime. Registering several resource classes with different paths on the same server. Registering classes with several jax-rs interfaces as several services at once. Registering services on userdefined paths, using annotations or service properties. Unregistering services at runtime. Setting TLSServerParameters on specific ports, allowing for on-the-fly SSL configuration of any unused port. A kind of important caveat: I don't have all that much experience with the deeper levels of CXF, and as such, I assume that there are several things that could have been done a lot smarter. The obvious one is that if you register a new service on a running endpoint (for example http://localhost:3456/services) then the entire http://localhost:3456/services will be taken down momentarily while the server is rebuilt. I haven't tested any advanced features of CXF yet, as I said, it is a proof of concept and work in progress. But take a look and tell me what you think. I can think of more than a few places where I could use this and i hope i'm not alone. -Martin On Wed, Jun 7, 2017 at 5:40 PM, Martin Nielsen <[email protected]> wrote: > I would be very interested to see that if you feel up to it.
