6.4. Configuration Properties
Specifying properties
Properties can be specified either as elements inside the
configuration element of the plug-in in your project's pom.xml file. For example, the profile property can be set as follows:
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>io.fabric8</groupId>
<artifactId>fabric8-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<profile>${fabric8.profile}</profile>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
Or you can specify the properties on the command line or as Maven build properties (where the property names must be prefixed with
fabric8.. For example, to set the profile name, you could add the following property to your pom.xml file:
<project>
...
<properties>
<fabric8.profile>my-foo</fabric8.profile>
...
</properties>
...
Or you can specify properties on the command line:
mvn fabric8:deploy -Dfabric8.profile=my-foo
Property reference
The Fabric8 Maven plug-in supports the following properties (which can be set either as elements inside the
configuration element in the pom.xml file or as Maven properties, when prefixed by fabric8.):
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
profile
|
The name of the Fabric profile to deploy your project to. Defaults to the groupId-artifactId of your Maven project.
|
serverId
|
The server ID used to lookup in ~/.m2/settings/xml for the server element to find the username and password to log in to the fabric. Defaults to fabric8.upload.repo.
|
jolokiaUrl
|
The Jolokia URL of the JBoss Fuse Management Console. Defaults to http://localhost:8181/jolokia.
|
version
|
The Fabric version in which to update the profile. Defaults to the current version of the fabric. |
baseVersion
|
If the version does not exist, the baseVersion provides the initial values for the newly created version. This is like creating a branch from the baseVersion for a new version branch in git.
|
parentProfiles
|
Space-separated list of parent profile IDs to be added to the newly created profile. Defaults to karaf.
|
features
|
Space-separated list of features to add to the profile. For example, the following setting would include both the camel feature and the cxf feature: <features>camel cxf</features>
|
featureRepos
|
Space-separated list of feature repository URLs to add to the profile. The URL has the general form mvn:groupId/artifactId/version/xml/features.
|
bundles
|
Space-separated list of additional bundle URLs (of the form mvn:groupId/artifactId/version) to add to the newly created profile. Note you do not have to include the current Maven project artifact; this configuration is intended as a way to list dependent required bundles.
|
upload
|
Whether or not the deploy goal should upload the local builds to the fabric's Maven repository. You can disable this step if you have configured your fabric's Maven repository to reuse your local maven repository. Defaults to true.
|
profileConfigDir
|
The folder in your maven project containing resource files to be deployed into the profile, along with the artifact configuration. Defaults to src/main/fabric8. You should create the directory and add any configuration files or documentation you wish to add to your profile.
