What is opentaps-osgi?

We aim to migrate ofbiz and opentaps to a more modern architecture based on:

  • OSGi
  • BPM
  • ESB
  • SCA

It appears that many open source products have been migrated to OSGi. To take full advantage of these products would be desirable to have opentaps and ofbiz restructured as OSGi modules.

Also migration to OSGi enables better architecture and more agile development. I make these statements based on information available on Internet.

In current build the following features are deployed and illustrated:

  • Eclipse Equinox OSGi
  • Spring DM (Dynamic Modules for OSGi development) and Spring Core
  • Tomcat
  • full maven build
  • Eclipse PDE development
  • OSGi Platform maven project build
  • OSGi Extension Projects: log4j configuration, catalina configuration, catalina.start.osgi configuration
  • Sample OSGi Service using Spring DM
  • Sample Web Application that uses the service above
