Configuration Repository

Overview

This repository stores the configuration files (YAML format) for different environments of the microservices architecture. The configurations are used by the Spring Cloud Config Server to provide environment-specific properties to microservices like HotelService, RatingService, UserService, and more.

Files

1. application.yml

This is the default configuration file that applies when no specific environment profile is active. It contains common properties shared across all environments.

2. application-dev.yml

This file contains configuration specific to the development environment. When the dev profile is active, this file's settings will override those in application.yml.

3. application-prod.yml

This file contains configuration specific to the production environment. When the prod profile is active, this file's settings will override those in application.yml.

Usage

How it works with the Config Server:

• The Spring Cloud Config Server reads these configuration files and serves them to microservices based on their active profile.
• Microservices fetch configurations dynamically based on their environment using the following URL pattern:

http://{config-server-url}/{application-name}/{profile}/{label}

For example, to fetch application-dev.yml for the hotelservice, the URL would be:

http://localhost:8888/hotelservice/dev/main

Active Profiles:

Default Profile: application.yml Development Profile application-dev.yml Production Profile: application-prod.yml

How to Update

Clone the repository:

git clone git@github.com:chandrakanthrck/env-config.git

Edit the YAML files: Make changes to the respective application.yml, application-dev.yml, or application-prod.yml based on the environment.

Commit and Push:

git add .
git commit -m "Update configuration"
git push origin main

Important Notes

• Ensure that sensitive data like passwords, API keys, etc., are not exposed in these files. Consider using encrypted values or environment variables for sensitive information.
• The configuration repository works in tandem with the Spring Cloud Config Server to provide environment-specific configurations to microservices.
