6.4. Configuring the Bundle Plug-In
Overview
A bundle plug-in requires very little information to function. All of the required properties use default settings to generate a valid OSGi bundle.
While you can create a valid bundle using just the default values, you will probably want to modify some of the values. You can specify most of the properties inside the plug-in's
instructions element.
Configuration properties
Some of the commonly used configuration properties are:
Setting a bundle's symbolic name
By default, the bundle plug-in sets the value for the Bundle-SymbolicName property to groupId
+ "." + artifactId, with the following exceptions:
- If groupId has only one section (no dots), the first package name with classes is returned.For example, if the group Id is
commons-logging:commons-logging, the bundle's symbolic name isorg.apache.commons.logging. - If artifactId is equal to the last section of groupId, then groupId is used.For example, if the POM specifies the group ID and artifact ID as
org.apache.maven:maven, the bundle's symbolic name isorg.apache.maven. - If artifactId starts with the last section of groupId, that portion is removed.For example, if the POM specifies the group ID and artifact ID as
org.apache.maven:maven-core, the bundle's symbolic name isorg.apache.maven.core.
To specify your own value for the bundle's symbolic name, add a
Bundle-SymbolicName child in the plug-in's instructions element, as shown in Example 6.2.
Example 6.2. Setting a bundle's symbolic name
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-bundle-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<instructions>
<Bundle-SymbolicName>${project.artifactId}</Bundle-SymbolicName>
...
</instructions>
</configuration>
</plugin>Setting a bundle's name
By default, a bundle's name is set to
${project.name}.
To specify your own value for the bundle's name, add a
Bundle-Name child to the plug-in's instructions element, as shown in Example 6.3.
Example 6.3. Setting a bundle's name
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-bundle-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<instructions>
<Bundle-Name>JoeFred</Bundle-Name>
...
</instructions>
</configuration>
</plugin>Setting a bundle's version
By default, a bundle's version is set to
${project.version}. Any dashes (-) are replaced with dots (.) and the number is padded up to four digits. For example, 4.2-SNAPSHOT becomes 4.2.0.SNAPSHOT.
To specify your own value for the bundle's version, add a
Bundle-Version child to the plug-in's instructions element, as shown in Example 6.4.
Example 6.4. Setting a bundle's version
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-bundle-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<instructions>
<Bundle-Version>1.0.3.1</Bundle-Version>
...
</instructions>
</configuration>
</plugin>Specifying exported packages
By default, the OSGi manifest's
Export-Package list is populated by all of the packages in your local Java source code (under src/main/java), except for the deault package, ., and any packages containing .impl or .internal.
Important
If you use a
Private-Package element in your plug-in configuration and you do not specify a list of packages to export, the default behavior includes only the packages listed in the Private-Package element in the bundle. No packages are exported.
The default behavior can result in very large packages and in exporting packages that should be kept private. To change the list of exported packages you can add an
Export-Package child to the plug-in's instructions element.
The
Export-Package element specifies a list of packages that are to be included in the bundle and that are to be exported. The package names can be specified using the * wildcard symbol. For example, the entry com.fuse.demo.* includes all packages on the project's classpath that start with com.fuse.demo.
You can specify packages to be excluded be prefixing the entry with
!. For example, the entry !com.fuse.demo.private excludes the package com.fuse.demo.private.
When excluding packages, the order of entries in the list is important. The list is processed in order from the beginning and any subsequent contradicting entries are ignored.
For example, to include all packages starting with com.fuse.demo except the package com.fuse.demo.private, list the packages using:
!com.fuse.demo.private,com.fuse.demo.*
However, if you list the packages using com.fuse.demo.*,!com.fuse.demo.private, then com.fuse.demo.private is included in the bundle because it matches the first pattern.
Specifying private packages
If you want to specify a list of packages to include in a bundle without exporting them, you can add a
Private-Package instruction to the bundle plug-in configuration. By default, if you do not specify a Private-Package instruction, all packages in your local Java source are included in the bundle.
Important
If a package matches an entry in both the
Private-Package element and the Export-Package element, the Export-Package element takes precedence. The package is added to the bundle and exported.
The
Private-Package element works similarly to the Export-Package element in that you specify a list of packages to be included in the bundle. The bundle plug-in uses the list to find all classes on the project's classpath that are to be included in the bundle. These packages are packaged in the bundle, but not exported (unless they are also selected by the Export-Package instruction).
Example 6.5 shows the configuration for including a private package in a bundle
Example 6.5. Including a private package in a bundle
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-bundle-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<instructions>
<Private-Package>org.apache.cxf.wsdlFirst.impl</Private-Package>
...
</instructions>
</configuration>
</plugin>Specifying imported packages
By default, the bundle plug-in populates the OSGi manifest's
Import-Package property with a list of all the packages referred to by the contents of the bundle.
While the default behavior is typically sufficient for most projects, you might find instances where you want to import packages that are not automatically added to the list. The default behavior can also result in unwanted packages being imported.
To specify a list of packages to be imported by the bundle, add an
Import-Package child to the plug-in's instructions element. The syntax for the package list is the same as for the Export-Package element and the Private-Package element.
Important
When you use the
Import-Package element, the plug-in does not automatically scan the bundle's contents to determine if there are any required imports. To ensure that the contents of the bundle are scanned, you must place an * as the last entry in the package list.
Example 6.6 shows the configuration for specifying the packages imported by a bundle
