Profile Details

Displays all of the details about a profile and lets you edit them.

The top of the page shows the basic information about the profile:

• Version - the profile version to which the displayed profile belongs
• Parent Profiles - the profiles from which the displayed profile inherits settings

The rest of the page is used to display the contents of the profile. It is broken into four tabs:

• Features - the features, defined as Apache Karaf feature files, that are loaded into the container
• Bundles - the OSGi bundles and Fuse Application Bundles that are installed into the container
• Repositories - the Apache Maven repositories from which artifacts can be downloaded
• Config Files - the configuration files used to specify runtime behaviors for the container and the services deployed into the container

Features

A feature is a collection of bundles, configuration, and other artifacts that can be installed as a single entity. They are specified using an XML file and are typically stored in a Maven repository.

A feature is specified by an ID and a version using the syntax:

id-string/version

To add a new feature:

1. Enter the ID and version into the Add new feature field
2. Click Add.

To delete a feature from the profile click the X to the left of the feature's name.

Bundles

Bundles are a library of artifacts that are deployed into a container. There are two types of bundles that can be added to a container:

• OSGi bundle - a JAR file containing a standard OSGi manifest file
• Fuse Application Bundle - a JAR file containing a modified Maven POM file that outlines the JARs dependencies

To add a new bundle:

1. Enter the ID and version into the Add new bundle field.
2. Click Add.

To delete a bundle from the profile click the X to the left of the bundle's name.

Repositories

To add a new repository:

1. Enter the repository's URL into the Add new repository field.
2. Click Add.

To delete a repository from the profile click the X to the left of the repository's URL.

Config Files

Config files are text files that configure some portion of the container's runtime or one of the services deployed into the container.

To add a new configuration file:

1. Enter the ID and version into the Add new config file field.
2. Click Add.

Important - If the config file is not named properly the container may not load it.

To edit a configuration file:

1. Click on its name
2. Edit the text in the pop-up window.
3. Click Save.

Important - The console does not validate the configuration file.

To delete a configuration file from the profile click the X to the left of the config file's name.
