Apache Felix Gogo is a subproject of Apache Felix aiming at implementing the OSGi RFC 0147.
The code has been donated by Peter Kriens and further developped by the Felix team.147, which describes a standard shell for OSGi-based environments. See RFC 147 Overview for more information.

Using Gogo with the Felix Framework

The Gogo subproject consists of three bundles:

1. runtime - implements the core command processing functionality.
2. shell - provides a simple textual user interface to interact with the command processor.
3. command - implements a set of basic commands.

As of the Apache Felix Framework 3.0.0, Gogo is included as the default shell in the framework distribution. To use it, you just start the framework like normal:

$ cd felix-framework-3.0.0
$ java -jar bin/felix.jar
