Karaf & feature.xml files
Hello,
I'm trying to put together a guide on installing multiple osgi bundles for
my team and one solution I would like to explore is using the features.xml
file.
All the guides on-line have made reference to a features:addUrl command.
When entering this, I'm informed the features command does not exist, nor
can I see it referenced in the available commands. There are other ways
around this to use feature:repo-add mvn:blah, however, I'd like to be able
to use the file protocol.
So, for example, if I had a features.xml file in
C:/feature_sandbox/features.xml, I'd like to do
feature:repo-add file://C:/feature_sandbox/features.xml
The above does not work either. The only other option I have is to use the
karaf feature plugin, which I'm happy to do, but I was keen to get something
faster in place before I add this plugin to the project. Is the file
protocol option available?
Secondly, has the features command been removed completely or is it
something I need to install in addition to my base installation. I haven't
seen the removal of this mentioned in some of the release notes, so it's
omission is mystery to me based on the very recently posted articles
regarding it's usage.
Warm Regards,
Stephen Munro

The addUrl command has been renamed to repo-add.
So they are the same command.
To add a file, you may need to use 3 slashes for a file. The following
command works for me:
feature:repo-add
file:///Users/gnodet/work/git/karaf4x/assemblies/apache-karaf-minimal/target/assembly/system/org/apache/karaf/features/spring/4.1.2-SNAPSHOT/spring-4.1.2-SNAPSHOT-features.xml

Hi Stephen,
feature:repo-add with a local URL works (I just tried on my linux box).
features:addUrl has been replace by feature:repo-add in Karaf 3/4 (the
documentation refers to feature:repo-add).
All features:* commands have been replace with feature:* commands. You can see
this in the update notes (from Karaf 2 to Karaf 3):
http://karaf.apache.org/manual/latest-3.0.x/#_update_notes_from_2_x_to_3_x
Which Karaf version are you using (in order to test feature:repo-add with a
local path on Windows) ?
Regards
JB
