Properties

Introduction

Several properties can be specified inside your application.properties file, inside your application.yml file, or as command line switches. This document provides a list of common AWE properties and references to the underlying classes that consume them.


ℹ️ Property contributions can come from additional jar files on your classpath, so you should not consider this an exhaustive list. Also, you can define your own properties.


⚠️ This sample file is meant as a guide only. Do not copy and paste the entire content into your application. Rather, pick only the properties that you need.


Encoding property value

There's a way to store encoded properties (such as passwords) in a properties file. You need to deploy the application, and enter into Settings -> Security access -> Encrypt util, fill the text criterion with the password and push the Encrypt button. The Encrypted property field is the value of the encoded password.

Almis

Once encoded, you just need to put it on any of your properties files and use it:

my.encoded.password=ENC(Pit1Q1bNt3uNQpZbldKbLg==)

ℹ️ The master key used to encode the properties is the security.master.key property from security.properties file. You can overwrite it on your own application.properties file.


⚠️ The Phrase key field on the Encrypt util screen allows you to generate the encoded properties with other passwords, but don't forget that the encoded properties with a phrase key and the security.master.key must match to be decoded successfully.

Overwriting properties

You can overwrite a any property of awe framework by adding it to your application.properties file of the project.

Awe has the same reading properties order than Spring (1. Is the highest preference).

  1. Devtools global settings properties on your home directory (~/.spring-boot-devtools.properties when devtools is active).
  2. @TestPropertySource annotations on your tests.
  3. @SpringBootTest#properties annotation attribute on your tests.
  4. Command line arguments.
  5. Properties from SPRING_APPLICATION_JSON (inline JSON embedded in an environment variable or system property)
  6. ServletConfig init parameters.
  7. ServletContext init parameters.
  8. JNDI attributes from java:comp/env.
  9. Java System properties (System.getProperties()).
  10. OS environment variables.
  11. A RandomValuePropertySource that only has properties in random.*.
  12. Profile-specific application properties outside of your packaged jar (application-{profile}.properties and YAML variants)
  13. Profile-specific application properties packaged inside your jar (application-{profile}.properties and YAML variants)
  14. Application properties outside of your packaged jar (application.properties and YAML variants).
  15. Application properties packaged inside your jar (application.properties and YAML variants).
  16. @PropertySource annotations on your @Configuration classes.
  17. Default properties (specified using SpringApplication.setDefaultProperties).

Externalized configuration

If you need load the configuration from one external file, you have to consider:

AWE like SpringApplication will load properties from application.properties files in the following locations and add them to the Spring Environment:

A /config subdirectory of the current directory.

  1. The current directory
  2. A classpath /config package
  3. The classpath root

Also, you can set spring.config.location environment property the run command.

java -jar myAweProject.jar --spring.config.location=file:/external_path/specific.properties

ℹ️ You can find more information about this in heck the Official Spring documentation .
