Maven supports the concept of a parent pom. This pom collects the information that is shared between a number of projects.
Make sure you are in the top directory:
$ cd ~/workspaces/osgi.enroute.examples.eval
The directory layout for our complete project will be:
./
osgi.enroute.examples.eval/
api/
application/
bndrun/
command/
integration-test/
parsii.provider/
simple.provider/
test/
We will create this layout along the way step by step.
In the default directory (~/osgi.enroute.examples.eval/) we create a pom.xml
file. It has the following content.
osgi.enroute.examples.eval $ vi pom.xml
// fill the content from the next sections
First the mandatory prolog:
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
In this section we define the default group name for any modules falling under this
module project. The groupId for the projects will be org.osgi and the artifactId, which
will also be the Bundle Symbolic Name for OSGi, will follow the pattern
osgi.enroute.examples.eval.*.
<groupId>org.osgi</groupId>
<artifactId>osgi.enroute.examples.eval</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
Module POMs have no output and should have packaging set to POM.
<packaging>pom</packaging>
Pretty standard Maven setup for our defaults.
<properties>
<project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>
</properties>
<build>
<plugins>
Compiler setup:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.1</version>
<configuration>
<source>1.8</source>
<target>1.8</target>
</configuration>
</plugin>
Standard plugin to jar-up the artifact:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0.1</version>
<configuration>
<archive>
<manifestFile>${project.build.outputDirectory}/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF</manifestFile>
</archive>
</configuration>
</plugin>
The bnd plugin that will calculate our manifest and other files in the bundle. This plugin will automatically run in m2e to do a lot of magic for you.
<plugin>
<groupId>biz.aQute.bnd</groupId>
<artifactId>bnd-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>7.0.0</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>bnd-process</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
The important part, the dependencies:
<dependencies>
This is a compile dependency providing us with the standardized set of functions in OSGi enRoute. This dependency contains no runtime dependencies; it is specification only.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.osgi</groupId>
<artifactId>osgi.enroute.base.api</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0</version>
</dependency>
We are adding JUnit because we will use this to test our code:
<dependency>
<groupId>junit</groupId>
<artifactId>junit</artifactId>
<version>4.12</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
The following repositories are defined if you want to use the OSGi enRoute and bnd snapshot bundles and/or plugins.
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>osgi-snapshots</id>
<url>https://oss.sonatype.org/content/groups/osgi/</url>
<layout>default</layout>
</repository>
<repository>
<id>bnd-snapshots</id>
<url>https://bndtools.ci.cloudbees.com/job/bnd.master/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/dist/bundles/</url>
<layout>default</layout>
</repository>
</repositories>
<pluginRepositories>
<pluginRepository>
<id>bnd-snapshots</id>
<url>https://bndtools.ci.cloudbees.com/job/bnd.master/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/dist/bundles/</url>
<layout>default</layout>
<snapshots>
<enabled>true</enabled>
</snapshots>
</pluginRepository>
</pluginRepositories>
</project>
After you created the pom.xml file you should verify that it all is ok.
