Table of Contents Introduction Prerequisites Project Setup Inheritance/Override Testing The Application Source Code Introduction In this example I am going to show you how to inherit values from application.properties into different environments. So, if you have an application.properties file under class path folder src/main/resources and if you have different environment specific application-{env}.properties files, then you csan inherit key/value pairs from application.properties file. Even you can override the inherited key/value…

Here I am going to build an application to show how to use Spring Cloud Bus. Let’s say you have multiple applications reading properties using Spring Cloud Config from centralized configuration files (for example, from Git repository). Spring Cloud Config is where you can have not only your all configurations centrally managed but also you can refresh them dynamically and…

Introduction This tutorial walks you through the process of consuming the configurations from the Spring cloud config server. So I will setup a config server and build a client application consumes the configuration on startup and then refreshes the configuration without restarting the client. Let’s say you have some configuration values, in application properties or yaml/yml files, which may be…

Sometimes we may need to have some conditional statement in Spring config XML file depending upon some variables value. Think of a situation when you are using JPA in your application and your application may have two persistence units in Spring XML config file and you need to connect to one of them depending upon the environments. Here conditional statement…

With this example I will show you how compound or nested property names work in Spring application. Compound or nested property names are perfectly legal when setting bean properties, as long as all components of the path except the final property name are non-null. You can use compound or nested property names when you set bean properties, as long as…

With this example I will show you how to inject Collections type Props in Spring applications. This is similar to the element type Map I had shown in another example. I am going to use Spring Boot framework but I will show you both using application.properties file as well as traditional XML config file to configure the props elements. In…
