32<h1><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-BundlePluginforMaven"></a>Bundle Plugin for Maven</h1>
33
34<p>This plugin for Maven 2 is based on the <span class="nobr"><a href="http://www.aqute.biz/Code/Bnd" title="Visit page outside Confluence" rel="nofollow">BND<sup><img class="rendericon" src="maven-bundle-plugin-bnd_files/linkext7.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" height="7" width="7"></sup></a></span>
35tool from Peter Kriens. The way BND works is by treating your project
36as a big collection of classes (e.g., project code, dependencies, and
37the class path). The way you create a bundle with BND is to tell it the
38content of the bundle's JAR file as a subset of the available classes.
39This plugin wraps BND to make it work specifically with the Maven 2
40project structure and to provide it with reasonable default behavior
41for Maven 2 projects.</p>

47<p>Rather than going straight to a detailed list of plugin features, we
48will first look at a simple example of how to use the plugin to give an
49immediate flavor. A detailed "<a href="#MavenBundlePlugin%2528BND%2529-howto" title="how-to on Maven Bundle Plugin (BND)">how to</a>" will follow.</p>

Karl Paulsf87ac142007-07-06 22:36:17 +000083<p>The <tt>&lt;Export-Package&gt;</tt> and <tt>&lt;Private-Package&gt;</tt> instructions tell the plugin about the contents of the resulting bundle JAR file. The <tt>&lt;Export-Package&gt;</tt> instruction tells the plugin which of the available packages to copy into the bundle <b>and</b> export, while the <tt>&lt;Private-Package&gt;</tt> instruction indicates which of the available packages to copy into the bundle <b>but not</b>
84export. If the two sets overlap, as they do in the case, then the
85export takes precedence. Since we did not specify any values for any
86other bundle manifest headers, they will assume default values which
87are described <a href="#MavenBundlePlugin%2528BND%2529-defaultbehavior" title="default-behavior on Maven Bundle Plugin (BND)">below</a>. One specific behavior to highlight is that the plugin generates the <tt>Import-Package</tt>
88bundle manifest header based on the contents of the bundle, which means
89that you generally do not ever need to explicitly specify it yourself.
90That's it.</p>
91
92<h1><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-Features"></a>Features</h1>
93
94<p>The BND library underlying the plugin defines instructions to direct
95its behavior. For this Maven plugin, these instructions are issued in
96the plugin configuration section of the POM file, as was illustrated <a href="#MavenBundlePlugin%2528BND%2529-simpleexample" title="simple-example on Maven Bundle Plugin (BND)">above</a>. BND recognizes three types of instructions:</p>
Stuart McCulloch93de6492007-12-16 15:59:05 +000097
Karl Paulsf87ac142007-07-06 22:36:17 +000098<ol>
99 <li><em>Manifest headers</em> - Any instruction that starts with
100a capital letter will appear in the resulting bundle's manifest file;
101the value for the header will either be copied, augmented, or generated
102by BND depending on the instruction.</li>
103 <li><em>Variables</em> - Any instruction starting with a lowercase letter is assumed to be a variable in the form of a name-value pair, such as <tt>version=3.0</tt>, that can be used for property substitution, but is not copied to the manifest.</li>
104 <li><em>Directives</em>
105- Any instruction starting with a '-' character is considered to be a
106directive that informs BND to perform some special processing and is
107not copied to the manifest.</li>
108</ol>
109
110
111<p>The remainder of this section covers the most important aspects of BND's instructions; for complete details refer to the <span class="nobr"><a href="http://www.aqute.biz/Code/Bnd" title="Visit page outside Confluence" rel="nofollow">BND documentation<sup><img class="rendericon" src="maven-bundle-plugin-bnd_files/linkext7.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" height="7" width="7"></sup></a></span>.</p>

115<h2><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-Instructions"></a>Instructions</h2>
116
Karl Paulsf87ac142007-07-06 22:36:17 +0000117<h3><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-{{&lt;ExportPackage&gt;}}"></a><tt>&lt;Export-Package&gt;</tt></h3>
118
119<p>The <tt>&lt;Export-Package&gt;</tt> instruction is a list of
120packages for the bundle to export. These packages are copied into the
121resulting bundle JAR file from the available classes (i.e., project
122classes, dependencies, and class path); thus, it is possible to include
123classes into your bundle that are not associated with source files in
124your project. <tt>&lt;Export-Package&gt;</tt> can be specified with
125package patterns using the '*' wildcard. Also, it is possible to
126exclude packages using negation by starting the package pattern with
127'!'. Thus, non-negated patterns indicate which of the available
128packages to include in the bundle, whereas negated patterns indicate
129which should not be included in the bundle.</p>
130
131<p>The list of package patterns is ordered and earlier patterns are applied before later patterns. For example, if you specify "<tt>org.foo.*,!org.foo.impl</tt>" the second pattern has no effect since all <tt>org.foo</tt> packages have already been selected by the first pattern. Instead, you should specify "<tt>!org.foo.impl,org.foo.*</tt>", which will export all <tt>org.foo</tt> packages except <tt>org.foo.impl</tt>.</p>
132
133<p>Following standard OSGi R4 syntax, package patterns can include both
134directives and attributes, which will be copied appropriately into the
135generated Export-Package manifest header. Besides explicitly listing
136package version attributes, BND will also determine package versions by
137examining the source JAR file or from <tt>packageinfo</tt> files in the package directory.</p>
138
139<h3><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-{{&lt;PrivatePackage&gt;}}"></a><tt>&lt;Private-Package&gt;</tt></h3>
140
141<p>The <tt>&lt;Private-Package&gt;</tt> instruction is similar in every way to the <tt>&lt;Export-Package&gt;</tt> instruction, except for the fact that these packages will <b>not</b>
142be exported by the bundle. If a package is selected by both the export
143and private package headers, then the export takes precedence.</p>
144
145<h3><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-{{&lt;IncludeResource&gt;}}"></a><tt>&lt;Include-Resource&gt;</tt></h3>
146
147<p>The <tt>&lt;Include-Resource&gt;</tt> instruction is a list of
148arbitrary resources that should be copied into the bundle JAR file. The
149specified resources are declared as clauses that can have the following
150forms:</p>
Stuart McCulloch93de6492007-12-16 15:59:05 +0000151
Karl Paulsf87ac142007-07-06 22:36:17 +0000152<div class="preformatted"><div class="preformattedContent">
153<pre>clause ::= assignment | inline | simple
154assignment ::= PATH '=' PATH
155simple ::= PATH
156inline ::= '@' PATH
157</pre>
158</div></div>
Stuart McCulloch93de6492007-12-16 15:59:05 +0000159
Karl Paulsf87ac142007-07-06 22:36:17 +0000160<p>For the <tt>&lt;Include-Resource&gt;</tt> instruction, actual file paths are relative to the <tt>pom.xml</tt>, while file copy destinations are relative to the root of the resulting bundle JAR file. In the case of <tt>assignment</tt> or <tt>simple</tt> forms, the <tt>PATH</tt> parameter can point to a file or directory. The <tt>simple</tt>
161form will place the resource in the bundle JAR with only the file name,
162i.e., without any path component. For example, including <tt>src/main/resources/a/b.c</tt> will result in a resource <tt>b.c</tt> in the root of the bundle JAR. If the <tt>PATH</tt>
163points to a directory, the entire directory hierarchy is copied into
164the resulting bundle JAR file relative to the specified directory. If a
165specific resource must be placed into a subdirectory of the bundle jar,
166then use the <tt>assignment</tt> form, where the first path is the the
167destination path (including file name if the resource is a file) and
168the second path is the resource to copy. The <tt>inline</tt> form requires a ZIP or JAR file, which will be completely expanded in the bundle JAR.</p>
169
170<p>If a resource clause is specified inside of "{ ... }" brackets, then
171variable substitution will be performed on the resource, where
172variables in the resources are denoted with "${ ... }" syntax.</p>
173
Stuart McCulloch7c961f52008-01-02 08:56:07 +0000174<p>By default the bundle plugin converts the project's Maven resource directories into a single <tt>&lt;Include-Resource&gt;</tt> instruction. If you specify your own <tt>&lt;Include-Resource&gt;</tt> instruction, this will replace the generated one. To include the generated list of Maven resources in your own <tt>&lt;Include-Resource&gt;</tt> instruction just add {<tt>maven-resources</tt>} to the list and it will be expanded automatically.</p>
175
Karl Paulsf87ac142007-07-06 22:36:17 +0000176<h3><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-{{&lt;ImportPackage&gt;}}"></a><tt>&lt;Import-Package&gt;</tt></h3>
177
178<p>The <tt>&lt;Import-Package&gt;</tt> instruction is a list of
179packages that are required by the bundle's contained packages. The
180default for this header is "*", resulting in importing all referred
181packages. This header rarely has to be explicitly specified. However,
182in certain cases when there is an unwanted import, such an import can
183be removed by using a negation package pattern. The package patterns
184work in the same way as for <tt>&lt;Export-Package&gt;</tt>, which means they are ordered. For example, if you wanted to import all packages except <tt>org.foo.impl</tt> you would specify "<tt>!org.foo.impl,*</tt>"</p>

187
188<h2><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-DefaultBehavior"></a>Default Behavior</h2>
189
190<p>To use this plugin, very little information is required by BND. As
191part of the Maven integration, the plugin tries to set reasonable
192defaults for various instructions. For example:</p>
Stuart McCulloch93de6492007-12-16 15:59:05 +0000193
Karl Paulsf87ac142007-07-06 22:36:17 +0000194<ul>
195 <li><tt>&lt;Bundle-SymbolicName&gt;</tt> is assumed to be "<tt>${groupId}.${artifactId</tt>}".</li>
196 <li><tt>&lt;Export-Package&gt;</tt> is assumed to be "<tt>${groupId}.${artifactId}.*</tt>", unless <tt>&lt;Private-Package&gt;</tt> is specified, then <tt>&lt;Export-Package&gt;</tt> is assumed to be empty.</li>
197 <li><tt>&lt;Private-Package&gt;</tt> is assumed to be empty by default.</li>
198 <li><tt>&lt;Import-Package&gt;</tt> is assumed to be "<tt>*</tt>", which imports everything referred to by the bundle content, but not contained in the bundle.</li>
Stuart McCulloch7c961f52008-01-02 08:56:07 +0000199 <li><tt>&lt;Include-Resource&gt;</tt> is generated from the project's Maven resources, typically "<tt>src/main/resources/</tt>",
Karl Paulsf87ac142007-07-06 22:36:17 +0000200which will copy the specified project directory hierarchy into the
201resulting bundle JAR file, mirroring standard Maven behavior.</li>
202 <li><tt>&lt;Bundle-Version&gt;</tt> is assumed to be "<tt>${pom.version</tt>}" with '-' character separator of the qualifier replaced with a '.' character.</li>
203 <li><tt>&lt;Bundle-Name&gt;</tt> is assumed to be "<tt>${pom.name</tt>}".</li>
204 <li><tt>&lt;Bundle-Description&gt;</tt> is assumed to be "<tt>${pom.description</tt>}".</li>
205 <li><tt>&lt;Bundle-License&gt;</tt> is assumed to be "<tt>${pom.licenses</tt>}".</li>
206 <li><tt>&lt;Bundle-Vendor&gt;</tt> is assumed to be "<tt>${pom.organization.name</tt>}".</li>
207 <li><tt>&lt;Bundle-DocURL&gt;</tt> is assumed to be "<tt>${pom.organization.url</tt>}".</li>
208</ul>
209
210
Stuart McCulloch7c961f52008-01-02 08:56:07 +0000211<p>Since the plugin creates bundles for OSGi R4, it hard-codes <tt>Bundle-ManifestVersion</tt>
Karl Paulsf87ac142007-07-06 22:36:17 +0000212to be '2'. Additionally, it generates imports for every export to
213ensure package substitutability, which is very important when working
214with collaborating services. It is possible to override any of these
215values (except <tt>Bundle-ManifestVersion</tt>) just by specifying the desired value in the plugin configuration section of the POM file.</p>

329specifies that the bundle exports the Log Service package, even though
330this package is not contained in the bundle project. By declaring this,
331the plugin will copy the Log Service package into the resulting bundle
332JAR file. This is useful in this case because now the bundle can
333resolve without having to download the entire compendium bundle. The
334resulting manifest for the Log Service bundle looks like this (notice
335how the imports/exports automatically have version information
336associated with them, which was obtained from packageinfo files in the
337source packages):</p>

Stuart McCulloch7c961f52008-01-02 08:56:07 +0000519<p>The Maven Bundle Plugin supports embedding of selected project dependencies inside the bundle by using the <tt>&lt;Embed-Dependency&gt;</tt> instruction:</p>
Stuart McCulloch93de6492007-12-16 15:59:05 +0000520
521<div class="code"><div class="codeContent">
522<pre class="code-xml"><span class="code-tag">&lt;Embed-Dependency&gt;</span>dependencies<span class="code-tag">&lt;/Embed-Dependency&gt;</span></pre>
523</div></div>
524
525<p>where:</p>
526
527<div class="preformatted"><div class="preformattedContent">
528<pre>dependencies ::= clause ( ',' clause ) *
529clause ::= MATCH ( ';' attr '=' MATCH | ';inline=true' )

531MATCH ::= &lt;globbed regular expressions&gt;

533</div></div>
534
Stuart McCulloch7c961f52008-01-02 08:56:07 +0000535<p>The plugin uses the <tt>&lt;Embed-Dependency&gt;</tt> instruction to transform the project dependencies into <tt>&lt;Include-Resource&gt;</tt> and <tt>&lt;Bundle-ClassPath&gt;</tt> clauses, which are then appended to the current set of instructions and passed onto BND.</p>
536
Stuart McCulloch93de6492007-12-16 15:59:05 +0000537<p>some examples:</p>
538
539<div class="code"><div class="codeContent">
540<pre class="code-xml"><span class="code-tag">&lt;Embed-Dependency&gt;</span>*;scope=compile|runtime<span class="code-tag">&lt;/Embed-Dependency&gt;</span>

545</div></div>
546
Stuart McCulloch7c961f52008-01-02 08:56:07 +0000547<p>By default matched dependencies are embedded in the bundle as <tt>artifactId-version.jar</tt>. This behaviour can be modified using the following instructions:</p>
Stuart McCulloch93de6492007-12-16 15:59:05 +0000548
549<ul>
550 <li><tt>&lt;Embed-StripVersion&gt;true&lt;/Embed-StripVersion&gt;</tt> - removes the version from the file (ie. <em>artifactId.jar</em>)</li>
551 <li><tt>&lt;Embed-StripGroup&gt;false&lt;/Embed-StripGroup&gt;</tt> - adds the groupId as a subdirectory (ie. <em>groupId/artifactId-version.jar</em>)</li>
552 <li><tt>&lt;Embed-Directory&gt;directory&lt;/Embed-Directory&gt;</tt> - adds a subdirectory (ie. <em>directory/artifactId-version.jar</em>)</li>
553</ul>
554
555
556<p>Normally the plugin only checks direct dependencies, but this can be
557changed to include the complete set of transitive dependencies with the
558following option:</p>
559
560<div class="code"><div class="codeContent">
561<pre class="code-xml"><span class="code-tag">&lt;Embed-Transitive&gt;</span>true<span class="code-tag">&lt;/Embed-Transitive&gt;</span></pre>
562</div></div>
563
564<p>If you want a dependency inlined instead of embedded add the <tt>inline=true</tt>. For example to inline all <em>compile</em> and <em>runtime</em> scoped dependencies use:</p>
565
566<div class="code"><div class="codeContent">
567<pre class="code-xml"><span class="code-tag">&lt;Embed-Dependency&gt;</span>*;scope=compile|runtime;inline=true<span class="code-tag">&lt;/Embed-Dependency&gt;</span></pre>
568</div></div>

Stuart McCullochdd4ae5f2008-02-05 12:38:46 +0000570<h3><a name="MavenBundlePlugin(BND)-EmbedDependencyandExportPackage"></a>Embed-Dependency and Export-Package</h3>
Stuart McCulloch7c961f52008-01-02 08:56:07 +0000571
572<p>If you embed a dependency with <tt>&lt;Embed-Dependency&gt;</tt>, and your <tt>&lt;Export-Package&gt;</tt> or <tt>&lt;Private-Package&gt;</tt> instructions match packages inside the embedded jar, you will see some duplication inside the bundle. This is because the <tt>&lt;Export-Package&gt;</tt> and <tt>&lt;Private-Package&gt;</tt>
573instructions will result in classes being inlined in the bundle, even
574though they also exist inside the embedded jar. If you want to export
575packages from an embedded dependency without such duplication then you
576can either inline the dependency, or use a new BND instruction called <tt>&lt;_exportcontents&gt;</tt>.</p>
577
578<p><tt>&lt;_exportcontents&gt;</tt> behaves just like Export-Package, except it doesn't change the content of the bundle, just what content should be exported.</p>

626<p>It is possible to configure the Maven Bundle Plugin to put the
627bundle manifest where Eclipse/PDE expects it, and use the Maven
628Dependency Plugin to arrange for any embedded dependencies to appear in
629a local directory that matches the Bundle-ClassPath entries. Here is an
630example POM that does this:</p>

733<p>To generate the Eclipse metadata use:</p>
734
735<div class="code"><div class="codeContent">

738
739<p>and you should now be able to import this as an existing Eclipse project.</p>
740
741<p>FYI: the above POM was generated using the <tt>pax-create-bundle</tt> command from <span class="nobr"><a href="http://www.ops4j.org/projects/pax/construct/index.html" title="Visit page outside Confluence" rel="nofollow">Pax-Construct<sup><img class="rendericon" src="maven-bundle-plugin-bnd_files/linkext7.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" height="7" width="7"></sup></a></span> and then tweaked to demonstrate using the Maven Dependency Plugin to handle embedded jars in Eclipse.</p>
742
743<p>With the original Pax-Construct generated POM you would simply use:</p>
744
745<div class="code"><div class="codeContent">
746<pre class="code-java">mvn clean <span class="code-keyword">package</span> pax:eclipse</pre>
747</div></div>
748
749<p>to create the appropriate Eclipse files and manifest, and also
750handle any embedded entries. The pax:eclipse goal extends
751eclipse:eclipse, and supports the same parameters.</p>

Stuart McCulloch93de6492007-12-16 15:59:05 +0000754
755<p>Once in a while you may create a bundle which contains additional classes to the ones compiled from <tt>src/main/java</tt>,
756for example when you embed the classes from another jar. This can
757sometimes cause unforeseen problems in Maven, as it will use the output
758directory (<tt>target/classes</tt>) rather than the final bundle, when compiling against projects in the same reactor (ie. the same build).</p>
759
760<p>The easiest way to get around this Maven 'feature' is to unpack the
761contents of the bundle to the output directory after the packaging
762step, so the additional classes will be found where Maven expects them.
763Thankfully there is now an easy option to do this in the bundle-plugin:</p>

Stuart McCulloch93de6492007-12-16 15:59:05 +0000778

780
781<div class="code"><div class="codeContent">

Stuart McCulloch93de6492007-12-16 15:59:05 +0000784</div></div>
785
786<p>Bnd will use it when calculating the bundle contents, and will also
787copy across all manifest attributes starting with a capital letter.<br>
788As shown in the above example, you could use this to include a non-OSGi
789manifest which you then customize with extra OSGi attributes.</p>
