Externalising properties file not working in Spring Boot App-CodePudding

I have Spring Boot App with version 2.3.12.RELEASE in Gradle with Liquibase changesets.

This code is multi module app with about four modules in hexagonal architecture.

and the resources folder structure looks like this for doctors-data-deploy module:

I have removed properties file from above resources folder and tried externalising them:

My Issue is I want to put configs files outside of the code, how can I externalise these files from code.

I tried below stuffs for this, tried below configuration in intellij configuration while running the app

1. -Dspring.profiles.active=local -Dserver.port=8080 -Dajp.port=0 -Dspring.datasource.url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:OraDoc -Dspring.datasource.username=system -Dspring.datasource.password=MyPasswd123 -Dspring.config.location=classpath:file:/Users/abc/codebaseDownloadedOne/configs/application.yml,classpath:file:/Users/abc/codebaseDownloadedOne/configs/application-local.yml

2. -Dspring.profiles.active=local -Dserver.port=8080 -Dajp.port=0 -Dspring.datasource.url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:OraDoc -Dspring.datasource.username=system -Dspring.datasource.password=MyPasswd123 -Dspring.config.location=classpath:/Users/abc/codebaseDownloadedOne/configs/application.yml,classpath:/Users/abc/codebaseDownloadedOne/configs/application-local.yml

3. -Dspring.profiles.active=local -Dserver.port=8080 -Dajp.port=0 -Dspring.datasource.url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:OraDoc -Dspring.datasource.username=system -Dspring.datasource.password=MyPasswd123 -Dspring.config.location=classpath:/Users/abc/codebaseDownloadedOne/configs/ -Dspring.config.name=application.yml,application-local.yml

4. -Dspring.profiles.active=local -Dserver.port=8080 -Dajp.port=0 -Dspring.datasource.url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:OraDoc -Dspring.datasource.username=system -Dspring.datasource.password=MyPasswd123 -Dspring.config.additional-locaton=file:/Users/abc/codebaseDownloadedOne/configs/

None of the above 4 approaches worked, can someone please let me know what's wrong with my configuaration?.

Below is my application yml file

server:
  tomcat:
    connectionTimeout: 300000
management:
  endpoint:
    mappings:
      enabled: true
spring:

            threadCount: 10
            threadPriority: 5
            threadsInheritContextClassLoaderOfInitializingThread: true

and error I am getting is this : basically it tried to look for master.xml which it does not getting.

Caused by: liquibase.exception.ChangeLogParseException: classpath:/db/changelog/db.changelog-master.yaml does not exist
    at liquibase.parser.core.yaml.YamlChangeLogParser.parse(YamlChangeLogParser.java:27)
    at liquibase.Liquibase.getDatabaseChangeLog(Liquibase.java:377)

File /db/changelog/db.changelog-master.yaml is existing in folder called /db/changelog/ but still it shows that it does not exist means spring boot is not able to find the application.yml when I put back application.yml in the resources folder then it works but I wanted to externalise this.

Can someone please help on this ?

CodePudding user response：

How Spring Boot handles externalized configuration files is documented here: https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/features.html#features.external-config.files

Possible problems with your config used:

ad 1) mixed classpath: and file:
ad 2) i guess /Users/abc/... is not on your classpath
ad 3) same as 2)

CodePudding user response：

Correct answer is this : It was only typo issue in my config, corrected it.

-Dspring.config.additional-location=file:/Users/abc/codebaseDownloadedOne/configs
