How to install JBoss Fuse Tooling into Eclipse

JBoss Fuse is an open source, lightweight and modular integration platform with style Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) that supports integration beyond the data center. JBoss Fuse combines several technologies like Apache Camel, Apache CXF, Apache ActiveMQ, Apache Karaf and Fabric8 in a single integrated distribution.

For this guide i am using STS(Spring Tool Suite) Version: 3.6.2.RELEASE, Build Id: 201410091308, Platform: Eclipse Luna SR1 (4.4.1). Choose your workspace and then you should find yourself in the Eclipse Welcome Screen. (only if you start it for the first time).

You have to install http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/development/luna/ first. After that restart STS and you will get a home page like below.

Home page

Now lets click on "Fuse integration project" option at home page.

There are few features available from that update site:

JBoss Fuse Tooling Apache Camel Editor:
This feature gives you the route editor for Apache Camel Routes, a new project wizard to setup new integration modules and the option to launch your new routes locally for testing purposes.

JBoss Fuse Server Extension Feature:
When installing this feature you will get server adapters for Apache ServiceMix, Apache Karaf, Fabric8 and JBoss Fuse runtimes. It allows you to start/stop those servers and to connect to their shell. Deployment options are also available.

You can review your selection and make changes to it by clicking the Back button if needed. If all is fine you can click the Next button instead. This will lead you to the license agreement screen. You need to agree to the licenses in order to install the software.

Once that is done you can click again the Finish button and the installation will start by downloading all needed plugins and features. Once that is done the new features will be installed into your STS folder. Before that happens Eclipse will warn you that you are going to install unsigned content. This happens because our plugins are not signed but nothing to worry about. Just click OK to do the installation.

After everything is installed Eclipse will ask you for a restart.

Click the Yes button to restart Eclipse. When the restart is done you will be able to select the Fuse Integration perspective from the perspectives list.
