It is not possible to activate the Spring boot profile when starting from IntelliJ-CodePudding

The

File application.yaml

spring.config.activate.on-profile: development

CodePudding user response：

The Profile you define in your pom.xml is a maven build profile, which has nothing to do with a spring config-property profile.

maven-profile:https://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-profiles.html
spring-profile: https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/2.6.x/reference/html/features.html#features.profiles

spring.config.activate.on-profile: development turns the current document of the configuration off if none of the active profiles is named development. So, this is like a filter for config-properties.

And you don't have to tell spring all profiles that will be used. So that line makes only sense if the document contains some application properties you want to turn on or off. These profiles are controlled via the launch configuration in IntelliJ.

For the maven-profile, you can enable/disable them in IntelliJs maven tab.

I am not sure if the latest Intellij Ultimate has changed the UI. I normally set the active profile from Edit Configuration > under Enviromnet > Active Profile (for 2020 Intellij version), put your profile name there, and save it. remove -Dspring.profiles.active=development and then try

make sure you have a spring property file with the name application-development.properties or application-development.yml in your project
