peaberry 1.1.1 is now available for production use.

The peaberry project is an extension library for Google-Guice that supports dependency injection of dynamic services. It provides OSGi integration out of the box, and has plug-in support for other registry-based service frameworks. It ships as an OSGi bundle that can be dropped into any R4 framework, such as Apache Felix or Eclipse/Equinox. You can also use peaberry outside of OSGi.

current status

The Guice trunk (which will become 2.0) now includes the necessary changes to support OSGi classloading.

Injection of Eclipse extensions and a simple factory for injecting extensions is now available in the 1.1 release.

peaberry 1.1 has also been successfully tested on the Google App Engine with a non-OSGi ServiceRegistry
( various people are still investigating getting OSGi frameworks running on the App Engine ).

peaberry 1.1.1 can be used with the Newton/Infiniflow distributed OSGi framework by enabling native filters:

    -Dorg.ops4j.peaberry.filter.native=true

( See this in practice with the recently uploaded Newton/peaberry example! ).

future plans

Currently investigating lifecycle/component models and injection of configuration details.
