Older documentation: Spring Cloud config [editor]
For an explanation about spring cloud config see http://cloud.spring.io/spring-cloud-config/spring-cloud-config.html
1. Client
Spring config client is integrated in the blueriq-web. .
Client config options
bootstrap.properties
spring:
cloud:
config:
uri: http://localhost:8888
username: <cloud-server-username> (*)
password: <cloud-server-password> (*)
failFast: true
retry:
max-attempts: 10
initial-interval: 5000
max-interval: 10000
* To make a connection to cloud config server, see #gitbasicauth
application.properties will not contain any property meant for the config client
pom.xml needs the following dependencies
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-cloud-starter-config</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.retry</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-retry</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-aop</artifactId>
</dependency>
2. Server
Spring config server will run separately and handle the property files. The client will communicate with the server to get the property files.
The property files will either come from the file-system or use GIT.
bootstrap.properties
encrypt:
failOnError: false
key: "IGotTheKey"
key-store:
secret: "IGotTheSecret"
spring:
cloud:
config:
server:
bootstrap: true (*)
* Indicates that the server should read it’s own application.properties from the remote config server (GIT or filesystem)
bootstrap.properties - extended for using the file-system
spring:
profiles:
active: native
cloud:
config:
server:
native:
searchLocations: file:D:/local-properties
bootstrap.properties - extended for using GIT - basic authentication
spring:
cloud:
config:
server:
git:
uri: https://git.blueriq.com/config-repo.git
basedir: target/config
username: <git_username>
password: <git_password>
application.properties
server:
port: 8888
security:
user:
name: <username> (*)
password: <password> (*)
management:
context-path: /admin
* Username and password that will be used for the client to connect to this server.
