Method Detail

parseFeatureRefFile

public static List<String> parseFeatureRefFile(File file)
                                        throws IOException

Parse a feature reference file

Parameters:

file - The file

Returns:

The referenced features

Throws:

IOException - If reading fails

getFeatureFiles

public static List<String> getFeatureFiles(File homeDirectory,
                                           String... files)
                                    throws IOException

Get the list of feature files. If the provided list of files is null or an empty array, the default is used. The default checks for the following places, the first one found is used. If none is found an empty list is returned.

1. A directory named DEFAULT_DIRECTORY in the current directory
2. A file named DEFAULT_FEATURE_FILE in the current directory
3. A directory named DEFAULT_DIRECTORY in the home directory
4. A file named DEFAULT_FEATURE_FILE in the home directory

The list of files is processed one after the other. If it is relative, it is first tried to be resolved against the current directory and then against the home directory. If an entry denotes a directory, all children ending in EXTENSION_FEATURE_FILE or EXTENSION_REF_FILE of that directory are read. If a file ends in EXTENSION_REF_FILE the contents is read and every line not starting with the hash sign is considered a reference to a feature artifact.

Parameters:

homeDirectory - If relative files should be resolved, this is the directory to use

files - Optional list of files. If none is provided, a default is used.

Returns:

The list of files.

Throws:

IOException - If an error occurs.
