Pass desired feature to load to the karaf script
Is it possible to pass the name of a feature to load to the shell script
that starts karaf?
Alternately, is it possible to pass a gogo command to the shell script that
starts karaf?
We have several applications that all use the same underlying dependencies
that are deployed in the ${KARAF_BASE}/system repo. We'd like to be able
to create bash shell aliases to conveniently start each of the
applications, e.g.,
alias app1='/path/to/karaf/bin/karaf featuresBoot=app1'
alias app2='/path/to/karaf/bin/karaf featuresBoot=app2'
...
or
alias app1='/path/to/karaf/bin/karaf gogoCommand=features:install app1'
alias app2='/path/to/karaf/bin/karaf gogoCommand=features:install app2'
...
Thanks,
Tim
Re: Pass desired feature to load to the karaf script

Are you suggesting to have multiple installations of Karaf or to run an
instance command on the gogo command line?
While we could have multiple installations, we are hoping to avoid
duplication since our applications have the same dependencies and can use
the same system repository.
Running an instance command on the gogo command line doesn't really solve
anything since we can already run feature:install command. We are trying
to avoid typing anything on the gogo command line.
If I've misunderstood your suggestion, could you try explaining it again?
Thanks,
Tim

You might also try to use instances to have different Karaf versions
running in parallel.

Re: Pass desired feature to load to the karaf script

We can only have one application running in each karaf session so we can't
add all the applications to org.apache.karaf.features.cfg.
We don't want to edit org.apache.karaf.features.cfg before running each
application.

Re: Pass desired feature to load to the karaf script

And why don't you just alter the features config and add your features to
the boot features?
Or did you consider to built a custom distribution on top of Karaf with
those features as boot features?
