Simple OSGi application with dependencies inside bundle

Simple OSGi application with dependencies inside bundle.

I am playing with karaf. I started by writing a simple rest application. https://github.com/YaroslavTir/osgi-jersey-hibertate/tree/stackoverflow/examples/karaf-rest-core

I took karaf examples as backbond and it was quite simple to run my first bundle with rest endpoints, but then I faced an issue when I added maven dependency. I added guava as an example and got an exception when installing the bundle in karaf

 <dependencies>
       ...
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.google.guava</groupId>
            <artifactId>guava</artifactId>
            <version>29.0-jre</version>
        </dependency>

    </dependencies>

    <build>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-bundle-plugin</artifactId>
                <configuration>
                    <instructions>
                        <Export-Package>org.apache.karaf.core.rest.blueprint</Export-Package>
                        <Import-Package>
                            *
                        </Import-Package>
                    </instructions>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>

I read somewhere that org.apache.felix.maven-bundle-plugin has a bug and add optional dependency to the bundle, and this looks like true, as I can see in MANIFEST.MF/Import-Package dependncy like com.google.appengine.api that should not be there. :

   <dependencies>
       ...
        <dependency>

        </dependency>

    </dependencies>

                    </instructions>

            </plugin>
            <plugin>

                <executions>
                    <execution>
                        <id>copy-dependencies</id>
                        <phase>package</phase>
                        <goals>
                            <goal>copy-dependencies</goal>
                        </goals>
                    </execution>
                </executions>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>

I know that should be super simple, and I just miss some small but important detail.

Answer

Your error means that your bundle karaf-rest-core-blueprint has a dependency on com.google.common.collect and this dependency can’t be resolved in the container.

In other words, you did’nt install guava into Karaf.

$ bundle:install -s mvn:com.google.guava/failureaccess/1.0.1
$ bundle:install -s mvn:com.google.guava/guava-29.0-jre

In a real app, you should create a feature which installs all your dependencies/bundles.
