starting with Configuration Admin on felix

Hi everybody,

I have two questions concerning configuration admin :
One is, are there any simple configurable examples available ?
Second, is there any bundle providing a local or remote UI for
configuring managed services and factories ?

Thank you in advance,

Anne

Felix, Marcel,

Thank you for your answers. In fact I have been looking to the Prosyst framework, where bundle configuration is accessible through the remote management console (mconsole). I was trying to figure out how to configure these bundles, when deploying them on felix.
I'll have a closer look to the given references and come back to you later.

Anne

There are some examples on the site, related to the different dependency management solutions. SCR is one of them, iPOJO and Dependency Manager both have some examples on the site:

See:
http://felix.apache.org/site/combining-ipojo-and-configuration-
admin.html

Like Felix said, we could use some contributions here. Adding a shell or graphical UI would be "handy" here. During development, we often use a bundle that allows you to just "drop in" files that are translated into configurations. I think Peter Kriens also has a bundle that does this (as well as allow you to install and update bundles the same way).

A wiki page about Configuration Admin and some example uses would be nice to have (we can base it on this thread :) ).

Greetings, Marcel

FYI, Peter's FileInstall bundle can be found at:

Like Felix said, we could use some contributions here. Adding a shell  
or graphical UI would be "handy" here. During development, we often  
use a bundle that allows you to just "drop in" files that are  
translated into configurations. I think Peter Kriens also has a

Hi Anne,

Unfortunately not yet (at least not on the wiki :-) We use the
Configuration Admin to supply configuration to our components, which we
register and manage with the Declarative Services (SCR). We have the new
Maven SCR Plugin create the required descriptors for the Declarative
Services and the Meta Type Service and use our tool (see below) to
manage the respective configuration).

We have a project (Sling) which we are currently working on submitting
it to the Apache Incubator. This project contains an easy to use Web
Based frontend to manage framework instances including simple GUI for
managing configurations for the Configuration Admin (with the help of
the Meta Type service to get configuration descriptions). Stay tuned :-)

Another solution would be to provide some shell commands for the
Configuration Admin. But such commands do not exist yet - basically due
to lack of time.

Regards
Felix
