To interact with Liferay DXP’s module framework on a local server machine, you can use the Felix Gogo shell within Blade CLI.
Here’s the command syntax:
blade sh <gogoShellCommand>
Here are some useful Gogo shell commands:
help: lists all the available Gogo shell commands. Notice that each command
has two parts to its name, separated by a colon. For example, the full name of
the help command is felix:help. The first part is the command scope while
the second part is the command function. The scope allows commands with the same
name to be disambiguated. E.g., scope allows the felix:refresh command to be
distinguished from the equinox:refresh command.
help [COMMAND_NAME]: lists information about a specific command including a
description of the command, the scope of the command, and information about any
flags or parameters that can be supplied when invoking the command.
lb: lists all of the bundles installed in Liferay’s module framework. Use
the -s flag to list the bundles using the bundles’ symbolic names.
b [BUNDLE_ID]: lists information about a specific bundle including the
bundle’s symbolic name, bundle ID, data root, registered (provided) and used
services, imported and exported packages, and more
headers [BUNDLE_ID]: lists metadata about the bundle from the bundle’s
MANIFEST.MF file
diag [BUNDLE_ID]: lists information about why the specified bundle is not
working (e.g., unresolved dependencies, etc.)
packages [PACKAGE_NAME]: lists all of the named package’s dependencies
scr:list: lists all of the components registered in the module framework
(scr stands for service component runtime)
scr:info [COMPONENT_NAME]: lists information about a specific component
including the component’s description, services, properties, configuration,
references, and more.
services: lists all of the services that have been registered in Liferay’s
module framework
inspect capability service [BUNDLE_ID]: lists services exposed by a bundle
install [PATH_TO_JAR_FILE]: installs the specified bundle into Liferay’s
module framework
start [BUNDLE_ID]: starts the specified bundle
stop [BUNDLE_ID]: stops the specified bundle
uninstall [BUNDLE_ID]: uninstalls the specified bundle from Liferay’s module
framework
system:getproperties: lists all of the system properties
