Ernst Vorsteveld created SYNCOPE-244:
----------------------------------------
Summary: Make external property file usage possible
Key: SYNCOPE-244
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYNCOPE-244
Project: Syncope
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: console, core
Affects Versions: 1.1.0
Reporter: Ernst Vorsteveld
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 1.1.0
Syncope console has a property file named configuration.properties, that
contains property values which are environment specific.
Everytime Syncope is installed on some servlet container, I need to do a change
property values in configuration.properties for the environment I am working on
and do a build.
I think that it is possible to move the configuration.properties out of the
build, and configure the properties in a file per environment.
We could do this by changing the
console/src/main/resources/applicationContext.xml.
Now the context file has for the configuration.properties file:
<bean id="propertyConfigurer"
class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer">
<property name="locations">
<list>
<value>classpath:configuration.properties</value>
</list>
</property>
</bean>
If we change this and add another bean:
<bean id="propertyConfigurer2"
class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer">
<property name="order" value="1"/>
<property name="location" value="file:#{(systemProperties['user.home']
+ '/.configuration.properties')}"/>
<property name="ignoreResourceNotFound" value="true"/>
<property name="ignoreUnresolvablePlaceholders" value="true"/>
</bean>
We only have to create a .configuration.properties file in the home directory
of the user that runs the servlet container on which syncope is deployed. If
the file is not found, it still the default configuration.properties file from
within the war file is used.
