Sling launchpad builder question

[Agustín Gañán <ag...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

Recently I found that there is a new project in Sling, the launchpad builder.
I used to build my sling based application (sling + additional bundles
+ configuration files) following the sling launchpad webapp project
stylebut now I would like to use the maven launchap plugin, like the
sling builder project.

I'm not quite sure what are the steps, correct me please:

1.- Configure maven-launchap-plugin with the "prepare-package" goal.
2.- Configure my custom bundles with the "additionalBundles"
configuration option.
3.- Configure the maven-war-plugin to add my custom *.properties files
to the generated war.

Is this correct? I'm missing something?

Thanks in advance,

Regards

Agus

This can also be done by providing a src/main/bundles/list.xml file. At
package time, this list is combined with the default list (from the
builder project). See, for example,
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/sling/trunk/launchpad/testing/src/main/bundles/list.xml

You might also want to look at the launchpad-webapp archetype. I wasn't
planning on releasing it until after Sling 6, but it is in the source
tree now (in maven/archetypes/launchpad-webapp).
