Sling includes four Maven archetypes to quick start development. See http://maven.apache.org/archetype/maven-archetype-plugin/ for general information on using Maven archetypes. The Maven groupId for all Sling archetypes is org.apache.sling.
sling-launchpad-standalone-archetype
This archetype generates a Maven project which will build a standalone Launchpad JAR file using the default bundle set. For demonstration purposes, the generated project includes an extra bundle list file (src/main/bundles/list) which includes Apache Felix FileInstall as well as a test configuration file (src/test/config/sling.properties).
sling-launchpad-webapp-archetype
This archetype generates a Maven project which will build a Launchpad WAR file using the default bundle set. For demonstration purposes, the generated project includes an extra bundle list file (src/main/bundles/list) which includes Apache Felix FileInstall as well as a test configuration file (src/test/config/sling.properties).
sling-intitial-content-archetype
This archetype generates a Maven project which will build an OSGi bundle that supports JCR NodeType registration (in SLING-INF/nodetypes/nodetypes.cnd) and initial content loading (in SLING-INF/scripts and SLING-INF/content).
sling-servlet-archetype
This archetype generates a Maven project which will build an OSGi bundle containing two Servlets registered with Sling, one registered by path and one registered by resource type.
sling-bundle-archetype
This archetype generates a Maven project which will build a basic OSGi bundle including support for the Felix SCR Annotations. It is pre-configured to install using the Felix Web Console when the profile autoInstallBundle is activated.
sling-jcrinstall-bundle-archetype
This archetype generates a Maven project which will build a basic OSGi bundle including support for the Felix SCR Annotations. It is pre-configured to install using a WebDAV PUT into the JCR when the profile autoInstallBundle is activated.
