[jira] Commented: (KARAF-426) Manage Karaf shell.name by branding

["Jean-Baptiste Onofré (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-426?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12988700#comment-12988700 ] 

Jean-Baptiste Onofré commented on KARAF-426:
--------------------------------------------

The branding.properties file could contain a prompt property.

The prompt property should support ASCII and "special" string for instance:

\u001B[1mmy_user\u001B[0m@${karaf.name}>

> Currently, when you start Karaf (or connect remotely to a karaf instance), you get a shell looking like:
> karaf@root>
> The "root" is the karaf instance name and could be changed using the karaf.name property defined in etc/system.properties file.
> The "karaf" part is hard coded in Karaf and not yet linked to users defined (especially when you enable some JAAS support using a database or LDAP backend :)).
> We can consider this "karaf" as a shell name, and we could consider this as linked to the branding.
> Karaf branding is looking for a org/apache/karaf/branding/branding.properties file containing a welcome property.
> This property is used by the Karaf branding support (at bootstrap) to display the welcome message.
> I propose to extend this branding.properties file by adding another shell.name property defining the shell name.
> If the property is not found or null, we fall back to "karaf" as it is currently.
