ASF subversion and git services commented on FLUME-2993: -------------------------------------------------------- Commit 5e52ac4ad18a7776f4c74499c1314fbfd3513160 in flume's branch refs/heads/trunk from [~bessbd] [ https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=flume.git;h=5e52ac4 ] FLUME-2993. Add support for environment variables in configuration files Flume does not currently support environment variable interpolation in the properties file configuration. Enabling it helps with: * removing security credentials from config files * copy-pastes in configuration files when defining multiple agents This closes #97 Reviewers: Lior Zeno, Jeff Holoman, Shang Wu (Bessenyei Balázs Donát via Bessenyei Balázs Donát) > Support environment variables in configuration files > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLUME-2993 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2993 > Project: Flume > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Configuration > Reporter: Bessenyei Balázs Donát > Assignee: Bessenyei Balázs Donát > Fix For: v1.8.0 > > > Flume does not currently support environment variable interpolation in the > properties file configuration. > Enabling it would help with > * removing security credentials from config files > * help with copy-pastes in configuration files with multiple agents defined > It is arguably a best practice to store (some) config in the environment > variables: https://12factor.net/config -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
