In order to run Concierge, you need a Java JRE installed on your system.
Download the latest version of the Concierge distribution from the project website
Start the framework from the installation directory by launching the framework jar and provide an .xargs file:
java -jar framework/org.eclipse.concierge*.jar samples/default.xargs
This will launch the framework and provide you with a Concierge shell. Type the bundles
command to see the active bundles:
Concierge> bundles
Bundles:
[ 0] (active) org.eclipse.concierge
[ 1] (active) Eclipse Concierge Shell
You can start an additional bundle from both a filesystem or a web URL. For example, to install the Apache Felix DS runtime, type:
Concierge> install http://www.us.apache.org/dist/felix/org.apache.felix.scr-1.8.0.jar
This will download and install the bundle:
Concierge> bundles
Bundles:
[ 0] (active) org.eclipse.concierge
[ 1] (active) Eclipse Concierge Shell
[ 2] (installed) Apache Felix Declarative Services
Start the bundle with the start command:
Concierge> start 2
[org.apache.felix.scr-1.8.0] started.
Congratulations, you have successfuly launched your Concierge runtime. For more info on the available
shell commands, type help
. To shutdown the framework type exit
