Controlling working directory and caching

Pax Runner makes use of an working directory to store required artifacts such as framework jars, provisioned bundles, framework specific directories.

Working Directory

By default Pax Runner will create and use a directory named "runner" in the current directory (the directory from where you started pax runner). You can alter this default by using --workingDirectory or --dir options as in:

pax-run --workingDirectory=<path>

where path is an absolute or relative path to your working directory. When the path is relative, it will be relative to the directory from where you started Pax Runner. Note that, if the specified path does not exist it will be created.
Take care when using this option together with --clean option as the directory will be removed, so you will loose any content of that directory

Cleanup

Cleaning up is the most drastic measure you can take. This means that workingDirectory will be first removed and recreated, so, any cached artifacts will be removed as well, along with any framework specific artifacts. It also means that this will force re-download of framework required artifacts (jars) as well as provisioned bundles.
To force a clean start use the --clean option:

pax-run --clean
