Spring-boot: set default value to configurable properties

Question

I have a properties class below in my spring-boot project.

@Component
@ConfigurationProperties(prefix = \"myprefix\")
public class MyProperties {
    private Str         


        

Answer 1

Check if property1 was set using a @PostContruct in your MyProperties class. If it wasn't you can assign it to another property.

@PostConstruct
    public void init() {
        if(property1==null) {
            property1 = //whatever you want
        }
    }
