Bootstraping OSGi Applications with the Gecko.io Runtime Exporter

We recently updated our documentation for the Gecko.io runtime project. The Gecko.io Runtime contains small helpers to improve the handling of your OSGi application in production environments and development.

The org.gecko.templates project contains bndtools project templates, to ease the creation of project within your Eclipse IDE.

Our org.gecko.runtime.boot registers some URL for certain folders like etc or data outside your application.

The bndtools Gecko Exporter from org.gecko.runtime.bnd enables an zipped export of your application with containing start script, configuration files to adjust the JVM and also a docker image build.

Take a look at the project and the small tutorial located at Gecko.io Runtime GitLab Repository:
