[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBDS-1995) externalize URL of JBDS SOA site so it can be passed in via commandline for testing purposes

[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-1995?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.... ] Nick Boldt edited comment on JBDS-1995 at 2/7/12 1:59 AM: ---------------------------------------------------------- ini file is a different issue. THIS issue is regarding parameterizing the URL from which SOA Tooling bits are installed, as referenced by the Central Discovery plugin. So, once again, the 3 moving pieces are: * directory.xml (contains references to 1 or more discovery jars - 1 for Core and later, 1 for SOA Tooling) * discovery.jar(s) (containing plugin.xml and plugin.properties) * plugin.xml / plugin.properties (with reference to SOA Tooling site I'm working on a new com.jboss.jbds.central.discovery.soa-tooling.feature and com.jboss.jbds.central.discovery.soa-tooling plugin which will set this in the plugin's plugin.properties: {code} jbds.soa.site = http://www.qa.jboss.com/binaries/RHDS/builds/staging/devstudio-5.0_trunk.... {code} Then, in plugin.xml, we should be able to do something like this: {code} <connectorDescriptor id="com.jboss.jbds.bpel.feature" categoryId="com.jboss.jbds.central.discovery.soa-tooling" groupId="com.jboss.jbds.central.discovery.soa-tooling.bcdg" kind="task" license="Free, EPL" provider="JBoss by Red Hat" siteUrl="%jbds.soa.site" name="JBoss BPEL Editor" description="BPEL Editor, examples and cheatsheets"> <iu id="com.jboss.jbds.bpel.feature"/> <iu id="org.jboss.tools.bpel.feature"/> <iu id="org.eclipse.bpel.apache.ode.runtime.feature"/> <icon image32="images/jbds_bpel_32.png"></icon> <overview url="http://devstudio.jboss.com/"></overview> </connectorDescriptor> {code} So, yes, I want a way to pass in a different value for %jbds.soa.site. I'm hoping that by externalizing the property, I can now do -Djbds.soa.site=http://some.other.url. -Unfortunately, I'm blocked right now because the TP is missing a feature, which prevents the BPEL component from building, which then blocks the SOA Tooling site from building. Will update when I have that sorted out.- Updated the TP and spun locally like this: {code} mvn3 clean install -f pom-discovery-feature-site.xml -Plocal.site -Dlocal.site=file:///home/nboldt/tru/build/target-platform/JBDS_REPO/ [INFO] com.jboss.jbds.central.discovery.soa-tooling ...... SUCCESS [0.997s] [INFO] com.jboss.jbds.central.discovery.soa-tooling.feature SUCCESS [0.098s] [INFO] JBDS - Central Discovery Plugin + Feature and Site - SOA Tooling SUCCESS [0.005s] [INFO] com.jboss.jbds.site.product.soa-tooling ........... SUCCESS [10.517s] [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] BUILD SUCCESS {code} Then, I updated by hand a directory.xml file to point at both the Core and SOA discovery plugins: {code} <directory xmlns="http://www.eclipse.org/mylyn/discovery/directory/"> <entry url="http://localhost:8080/product/site/target/site/plugins/com.jboss.jbds.central.discovery_1.0.0.v20120207-0622-Beta1.jar" permitCategories="true"/> <entry url="http://localhost:8080/product-soa/site/target/site/plugins/com.jboss.jbds.central.discovery.soa-tooling_1.0.0.v20120207-0630-Beta1.jar" permitCategories="true"/> </directory> {code} And while the externalized property IS read correctly, and I see Beta1 SOA Tooling bits I can install, I can't override it like this to allow testing the installation of M5 bits: {code} ./jbdevstudio -vmargs -Djboss.discovery.directory.url=http://localhost:8080/product/site/target/site/devstudio-directory.xml -Djbds.soa.site=http://devstudio.jboss.com/updates/5.0/staging/soa-tooling/ {code} ---- So, I need some way to have the com.jboss.jbds.central.discovery.soa-tooling plugin look at the system property jbds.soa.site in the same way that the org.jboss.tools.central plugin looks at jboss.discovery.directory.url. was (Author: nickboldt): ini file is a different issue.
