materialize bundles?
Is there any easy way (e.g. console or mvn command) to materialize all
the bundles/versions in a given running instance of Karaf and put them
as jars into a target directory?

bundle:watch * is also very useful. See
http://karaf.apache.org/manual/latest/#_watch
So while debugging you can do mvn install on the single project after
making changes to it. Karaf will then automatically updated the bundle(s)
you built. This even works without disconnecting the debugger.
So in practice the debugging experience is not much worse than with the pde.

Hi Scott,
it's here:
http://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/apache/karaf/apache-karaf-minimal/
I will update the download page with it too.

Thanks Christian.
Where is the karaf-minimal distro available? I couldn't find it on the
normal download pages.

Re: materialize bundles?

karaf-minimal is just a smaller distro then the normal karaf. It is
released for each version of karaf. I guess Guillaume pointed you to this
as an example of how to create your own custom distro.
There is no support to start karaf with a target platform. In practice
debugging karaf distributions works quite well though.
You simply start karaf with "karaf debug". Then go to the project you want
to debug in eclipse and start a remote debugging session for it with port
5005.
See
http://karaf.apache.org/manual/latest/#_debugging
This works very well for pure maven projects. I think it is not very well
suited for tycho based projects.

One more question:
The pom you pointed me to:
https://github.com/apache/karaf/blob/master/assemblies/apache-karaf-minimal/pom.xml#L102-L148
Seems to be the 'karaf minimal' or 'karaf boot' (not sure if these are
the same thing), but the version appears to be 4.2...which is not out
yet. When is the expected release of karaf minimal/boot?
Thanks,
Scott

Ok, thanks. Is there some further support for
developing/debugging/testing to these and other features...e.g. in
Eclipse and/or other IDE? e.g. target platform?
Excepting bndtools, which I know about.

The karaf maven plugin is perfectly suited to create custom distributions.
We do use it to create the karaf official distributions, so unless
something is missing, I'd suggest having a look at it.
See for example:
https://github.com/apache/karaf/blob/master/assemblies/apache-karaf-minimal/pom.xml#L102-L148

It could be used to develop to and package custom distributions that are
based upon Karaf and other projects...for example OpenHab.

Yes that's true/understood.
I suppose what I'm getting at is: how to most easily develop to and
create custom distributions...not of Karaf directly, but perhaps Karaf +
OpenHAB + others.

Not really.
What would be the use of such a directory ?
Using that as the deploy folder for a newly created instance ? You'd loose
some information such as configurations, start levels, etc...
