Alternatively you can use gshell to install plugins using the deploy/list-plugins command. This can be run with a command line or interactively. Interactively you can select the plugin repository to use (if more than one is known), and then select the plugins to install. Again, they will be downloaded and installed. An example of command line usage will be seen in later when we discuss assembling a server.
...
Assembling a server from an existing server.
Just as with installing plugins, this can be done from the admin console, gshell, and the Geronimo Eclipse Plugin. In the admin console you specify the groupId and artifactId of the server you want, the version, the target path and the archive type and then select the plugins you want installed. The server will be assembled in var/temp by default.
Similarly you can use the gshell deploy/assemble -server command specifying the same information on the command line or interactively.

In order to get a working server you must include the geronimo-boilerplate-minimal plugin framework plugin group (org.apache.geronimo.plugingroups/framework/version/car) which includes several files used to start the server |

The use of the GEP to assemble a custom server is very similar to the other methods. While the Geronimo server is running, use the server's popup menu to launch the Custom Server Assembly dialog. Specify the artifact name, group, version, archive type, path (relative to the running server), and plugins that you want installed. Once again, remember that the geronimo-boilerplate-minimal framework plugin group must be included to get a working server.
