Description

I would like a packaging of only the jars needed to open a JanusGraph instance in an jvm without any of the dependencies required for starting a gremlin server, elasticsearch server, cassandar server or even a servlet container.

I already have a J2EE web app in an existing servlet container and I would like to use JanusGraph's Java API inside my web app. If I build the hadoop2 profile and use all the jars in the lib directory it includes a lot of extra libraries I don't need that conflict with other libraries in my J2EE server.

Research direction

Start by inspecting the existing hadoop2 build profile and the generated lib directory, then trace how dependencies for JanusGraph's Java API are declared. Define the new profile around the requested JanusGraph-only distribution, excluding Gremlin Server, Elasticsearch, Cassandra, Hadoop, and servlet-container dependencies. Done means the profile produces a usable, conflict-minimized set of jars for embedding in an existing J2EE web app.
