Description
A new command that should be added to the karaf console: feature:watch
It's the feature counterpart to bundle:watch and watches not only one bundle, but a whole feature for updates.
Rational: When adding a new dependency to a bundle that is watched by karaf, then usually the resolver complains about a missing dependency. The usual workflow for a developer is then:
- refresh feature repositories
- refresh feature
In order to streamline this workflow there should be a command that, given a feature, watches all bundles/resources of it and if something changes executes those two commands.
Benefit: One is not confronted with ugly resolver error messages , faster development workflow.
