A maven plugin helps install artifacts for a standalone Tuscany application
Hi,
I twisted our war maven plugin so that it can now be used to either install
a tuscany standalone application to a directory with the similar structure
as we have for the WAR or create a zip file containing all the required
artifacts and you can unzip it somewhere to run.
Do you see any values? I found it simplify my life to deploy the
helloworldwsclient sample which has quite a few dependencies.
If the answer is yes, I can check in the changes into trunk.
Thanks,
Raymond

The point of the branch is to provide a base for stabilization and we
should not be adding new functionality to it.
This is standalone Maven plugin and if its something we want we can
release it independently.

Does the self-contained image (case 2) contain required extensions
(in the "extensions" directory) and all their dependencies (in the
"repository" directory)? If so, I think this will be a great
convenience for people building redistributable Tuscany apps and
I think we should move it into the M2 branch after you have checked
it into trunk.

Re: A maven plugin helps install artifacts for a standalone Tuscany application
Posted by Raymond Feng <en...@gmail.com>.
Hi,
Actually, I have tried to handle both cases.
1) For shared standalone image with existing artifacts, the plugin will try
to merge the application into the target by adding new artifacts (the
"overwrite" property will control if existing artifacts will be
overwritten). But we need to make sure that isolation is not compromised in
this case.
2) For the application-by-application case, it works very simlar as the WAR
plugin does to create a self-contained image.
Thanks,
Raymond

Re: A maven plugin helps install artifacts for a standalone Tuscany application

The question I have is here is whether we see this as being commonplace?
I was thinking that users in general would want to download/install a
standalone image and then configure it to run their applications. In
that mode I can see a plugin being used to build/package a composite
(in some standard form defined by the SCA specs) that can then be run
on any SCA installation including Tuscany.
It sounds like your plugin is taking a different tack, assembling a
separate installation to run each composite.

Today, if I want to run a standalone app, i have to unzip the standalone
distribution into the target directory and run it using the launcher.
With your changes to the plugin, would I be able to populate the target
directory with necessary standalone distribution files in the right
structure so the application could just run with a mvn run for example ?

I think this has a lot of value and is one of the directions we
should take deployment...which reminds me we should kick off a
discussion on deployment, provisioning, and service discovery.
