I’m inspired by Neil Barlett’s experiment on writing OSGi bundles in scala. This blogpost will show you how to compile OSGi bundles written in scala using pax-construct.

You’ll find Pax-Construct 0.6.3 easier to use, as pax-add-repository can also add plugin repositories ( there’s a lot of other cool improvements over the 0.1.x release, and some proper docs

Yeah, I was wondering why adding plugin repositories was not supported. I must upgrade.

Hi, Is there any way to automate this ? For example, if I have a Scala class in a test.scala file.
I have my scala program running (my server is a osgi felix) and I want it to compile, make osgi and activate in my server. Then I want to be able to call a method in the class.
I want this loop to be automated, in the sense that the scala code calls some function to do all of this for me, given the source of the scala file.
Any suggestion I hope?

Assuming I understand your requirements, you could possibly use http://www.aqute.biz/Code/FileInstall to inject compiled bundles into a running felix.
In terms of bootstrapping the compilation from scala, that sounds possible but it would depend on what kind of build system you plan to use. I’ve not tried it using pax-construct but that presupposes that you want to use maven with it.
I’m sure it’s possible to call Runtime.exec( “mvn install” ) and then copy the resulting bundle jar into FileInstall’s monitored directory.
