Introduction

ECFs Remote Services/Remote Service Admin implementation may be used on any OSGi R4.3+ compatible Framework Implementation. Starting with ECF 3.8.0 we will provide the Apache Karaf provisioning metadata to allow ECF RS/RSA SDK to be easily installed into a Karaf installation.

What is Karaf?

Karaf is a lightweight OSGi server that supports installing Karaf-based features into the runtime. For more information about Karaf, and/or to download see here, and for more information about Karaf provisioning see here.

  • Install the ECF SDK
    • To install from the webconsole, click on the arrow for the ecf.rs.sdk feature/row underneath the Actions column to install.
    • To install from the Karaf command console, enter this command: feature:install -v ecf.rs.sdk
