Hi,
start designing our second RAP application I try to redesign/improve our RAP-app build- and developing process.
The idea is to use Mavens dependency-management to create local directories, use this directories in eclipse/applications target platform and then build against this target in a target-platform-configuration via Tycho.
The workflow is:
- Copy dependencies via maven-dependency-plugin into a folder like:${project.basedir}/target/source/plugins
- Generate p2 meta-data via tycho-p2-extras-plugin & 'publish-features-and-bundles' on folder from step one like this:
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.eclipse.tycho.extras</groupId>
<artifactId>tycho-p2-extras-plugin</artifactId>
<version>${tycho-version}</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>generate-full-metadata</id>
<phase>compile</phase>
<goals>
<goal>publish-features-and-bundles</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<compress>false</compress>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.eclipse.tycho</groupId>
<artifactId>tycho-p2-repository-plugin</artifactId>
<version>${tycho-version}</version>
<configuration>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>verify-repository</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<compress>false</compress>
<includeAllDependencies>true</includeAllDependencies>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.eclipse.tycho</groupId>
<artifactId>tycho-p2-publisher-plugin</artifactId>
<version>${tycho-version}</version>
<configuration>
<publishArtifacts>true</publishArtifacts>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
The problem is: eclipse prompts a message 'no categorized items found' (bug in tycho, already known)when I try to use the generated repo-folder from step 2 as software-site - so I can´t use this directory as softwaresite directly, but as directory - but, Tycho supports no location type 'directory'
When I try to use the p2 folder as repo for Tycho like
<properties>
<deps.url>file:/${basedir}/p2dependencymanager/target/repository/</deps.url>
</properties>
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>dependencies</id>
<url>${deps.url}</url>
<layout>p2</layout>
</repository>
</repositories>
in my applications pom, the generated repo will not be found by tycho ('No repository found at this location...') even the repo was verified by tycho...
The question is: am I missing the point of using directories, p2 metadata and Tycho? Is my approach at least possible? How do you design your build-process of your RAP applications? What do you think is the most efficient way to develop & build RAP apps?
