Hey Julien,<br><br>That's really cool! Just so I know what you did in your video - you had an OSX shell running, and you executed Forge using the maven exec goal. This forge build used CRaSH as the terminal implementation? This is very promising!<br>
<br>Which features aren't working at the moment? (If you want to cry a little bit on the inside, you might want to try the "less" plugin ;)<br><br>As part of Forge 2.0 (I think I mentioned this before,) we really want to de-couple the shell from any plugins, and provide a standalone container for plugin execution, so if you run in to any coupling issues, it would be <i>really</i> helpful if you could open a JIRA against <a href="https://issues.jboss.org/browse/FORGE">https://issues.jboss.org/browse/FORGE</a> - using the 2.0 target version :)<br>
<br>Then we can start addressing these issues individually.<br><br>Thanks!<br>~Lincoln<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, May 7, 2012 at 5:45 PM, Julien Viet <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:julien@julienviet.com" target="_blank">julien@julienviet.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I started to do basic integration to give a concrete try and I'm able to make forge core/shell module to run using CRaSH JLine connector.<br>
<br>
It is not 100% operational (as any POC) as some features are bypassed at the moment, the following work:<br>
<br>
- command execution<br>
- command completion<br>
- prompt within a command but without completion (as crash does not support it originally (read here yet))<br>
<br>
here is a short video of running the core/shell module standalone : <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJ_QbgawkpE" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJ_QbgawkpE</a><br>
<br>
I pushed this POC in my GH repository if you are interested to look at the changes yourself : <a href="https://github.com/vietj/core/compare/crash" target="_blank">https://github.com/vietj/core/compare/crash</a><br>
<br>
I will continue to work on this later to add telnet or ssh support because it would be the real value added for forge to use CRaSH.<br>
