Setup

Manually install ready to use bundle search-webconsole-plugin-x.x.x.jar using web console interface.

Build

Build and deploy automatically using command: mvn clean package sling:install. Do not hesistate to fork and create pull requests.

Configuration

Deployment

If your container is available on different URL than http://localhost:8181/system/console, just override properties in following way:

mvn clean install sling:install -Dfelix.url=http://localhost:8080/felix/console -Dfelix.user=foo -Dfelix.password=bar

Known issues

On pure Felix distribution, for instance com.sun.* package is not available by default, but it is required by decompiler to work. To fix that problem just include packages within boot delegation in a same way as Karaf does in config.properties:

org.osgi.framework.bootdelegation = \
    com.sun.*, \
    sun.*

Also, by default, bundle storage directory is not specified in Felix distribution. Plugin assumes that if property org.osgi.framework.storage is not defined, directory ./felix-cache will be used instead.

Legal notice

Any usage of that tool and legal consequences must be considered as done at own risk. For instance, decompiled source code can be protected by copyrights and author does not take any responsibility for such usages.

Using that tool is absolutely optional. Original purpose of usage of built-in decompiler is to quickly view class sources used at runtime that are even available in public Internet, so that code debugging can take less time.
