Datasource configuration

Database

Scripts to create the required database content are provided for the supported databases.

For customers that are upgrading, if the database scheme was already created in a previous version, check to see if there are database upgrade scripts provided for any of the intermediate versions in the Upgrade Instructions.

Configuration

Use the following steps to configure the datasource:

1. Install the driver for your database. See Configuring JDBC database drivers for information on how to do this.
2. Provide the connection details for the datasource. There are two options for this: using JDBC or JNDI.
   

   1. Using JDBC datasource : this is configured in the  application-externaldatasources.properties file. When configuring external datasources, the externaldatasources profile should be enabled.

      application-externaldatasources.properties

      blueriq.datasource.<datasource-name>.url=<JDBC url>
      blueriq.datasource.<datasource-name>.username=<username>
      blueriq.datasource.<datasource-name>.password=<password>
      blueriq.datasource.<datasource-name>.driverClassName=<driver-class>

      
      

   2. Using JNDI datasource : this can be configured in the  application-jndidatasources.properties file. When configuring JNDI datasources the jndidatasources profile should be enabled.

      blueriq.datasource.<datasource-name>.jndiName=<JNDI url>

      
      

3. Provide the appropriate Hibernate settings in the same properties file as step 2.
   

   blueriq.hibernate.<datasource-name>.dialect=<database-dialect>
   blueriq.hibernate.<datasource-name>.use_nationalized_character_data=true
   blueriq.hibernate.<datasource-name>.hbm2ddl.auto=validate                 # validate is the only supported value here

Example configuration

Below are configuration examples which contain a JDBC url, driver-class and dialect for each supported database.

blueriq.datasource.<datasource-name>.url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@<host>:<port>/<servicename>
blueriq.datasource.<datasource-name>.username=<username>
blueriq.datasource.<datasource-name>.password=<password>
blueriq.datasource.<datasource-name>.driverClassName=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver

blueriq.hibernate.<datasource-name>.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.OracleDialect
blueriq.hibernate.<datasource-name>.hibernate.use_nationalized_character_data=true
blueriq.hibernate.<datasource-name>.hbm2ddl.auto=validate

blueriq.datasource.<datasource-name>.url=jdbc:sqlserver://<host>:<port>;databaseName=<database>;trustServerCertificate=true
blueriq.datasource.<datasource-name>.username=<username>
blueriq.datasource.<datasource-name>.password=<password>
blueriq.datasource.<datasource-name>.driverClassName=com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver

blueriq.hibernate.<datasource-name>.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.SQLServer2012Dialect
blueriq.hibernate.<datasource-name>.hibernate.use_nationalized_character_data=true
blueriq.hibernate.<datasource-name>.hbm2ddl.auto=validate

blueriq.datasource.<datasource-name>.url=jdbc:postgresql://<host>:<port>/<database>
blueriq.datasource.<datasource-name>.username=<username>
blueriq.datasource.<datasource-name>.password=<password>
blueriq.datasource.<datasource-name>.driverClassName=org.postgresql.Driver

blueriq.hibernate.<datasource-name>.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQLDialect
blueriq.hibernate.<datasource-name>.hibernate.use_nationalized_character_data=true
blueriq.hibernate.<datasource-name>.hbm2ddl.auto=validate
