Hi all,

i'm working on task to configure a endpoint OSGI service where the user can configure the URL. I have a basic idea how this should be done, but i'm wondering are there any best practice? If you have any example will be nice to see another aproach.

Regards

I would really love to give you my viewpoints when working with OSGI configurations

In many projects I have taken over from other teams or vendors , one big issue I have always faced is the configs. When you are working with OSGI configs please make sure you handle them by creating config nodes. To ease my job of explaining everything I have dig out some blogs from internet . Please read the below

Are you talking about how to configure values that an OSGi service can read - if so - see: Scott's Digital Community: Reading AEM OSGi Configuration Values

  The basic idea is to have a osgi service endpoint from which i retrive a json and then this json file fill load some data in my component dynamically, but sometimes the url for the external API will be changed. I have to add possibility to configure the url and maybe to be configurable with run modes somehow .
