embedded karaf - hotdeploy & console
Hi All,
trying to run Karaf embedded within web application deployed to Jetty or
JBoss. Yes, I know this is suboptimal, but well, I need it have it
running inside some web container.
So I managed to run Karaf by calling Main() within some web listener
(invoked from web.xml), but:
- hot deploy does not seem to work: OSGi bundles copied into
WEB-INF/karaf/deploy are ignored (nothing happens)
- I can't connect to local or remote console - even though I put system
properties (System.setProperty("karaf.startLocalConsole",
"true");System.setProperty("karaf.startRemoteShell", "true");) which
should (AFAIK) start the console
The question is if I'm hitting the limits of what embedded Karaf can do,
or (most probably) I do it wrong. Is there any complete example of
having fully-fledged Karaf running in embedded mode?

Hey Tomek,
Embedding OSGi in container is a bit tricky. From my understanding most critical is lack of configuration directory. Karaf install many etc/*.cfg files as cofigurations for ConfigAdmin. relying on defaults should start something, but first of all check framework.
To ensure that everythings works well make sure that Felix starts correctly. First step is to check directory configured by org.osgi.framework.storage. You should have there few sub-directories (bundle1, bundle2, bundleN). Ensure that karaf loads correctly properies - especially startup.properties. I guess that nothing is started because you can not connect to remote shell. Also, I recommend to disable local console. In/out streams are usually wrapped by JSP compilers.
If you wish you might reffer my article about embedding aries [1], which uses a bit different approach and allows you to re-use web connector.

JB,
from your answers I understand that my Karaf config is missing many
(crucial, I guess) files. No point in bothering you with this - I will
take some running distribution and try to run it in embedded mode. If it
fails, then I will come back with more reasonable questions. :)
Thanks!

No, at least turning the rootLogger in DEBUG (as you can do in
etc/org.ops4j.pax.logging.cfg file).

Are you able to access to the JMX layer ?
In the etc/org.apache.karaf.features.cfg, could you check that
management and ssh are bootFeatures ?

You mean System.setProperty("KARAF_DEBUG", "true"); ? No additional output.

How should I check ssh and management features are installed?
BTW. I checked with netstat but found nothing on 8101. I tried to
configure ssh by putting org.apache.karaf.shell.cfg into karaf/etc

Hi Tomasz,
1/ for the hotdeploy folder, could you turn in debug to see if Felix
fileinstall is calling the deployer ?
2/ for the console, I guess that you talk about the ssh connection.
Could you check if the sshd server is started (for instance, checking if
the ssh and management features are correctly installed, and performing
a telnet on te given port), especially if there are some port overlap.
We can discuss about adding a war distribution of Karaf, or at least
document how to do it.
Regards
JB
