Configure active profile in SpringBoot via Maven

Question

I\'m trying to set an active profile in Spring Boot application using Maven 3.
In my pom.xml I set default active profile and property spring.pr

Answer 1

You can run using the following command. Here I want to run using spring profile local:

spring-boot:run -Drun.jvmArguments="-Dspring.profiles.active=local"

Answer 2

In development, activating a Spring Boot profile when a specific Maven profile is activate is straight. You should use the profiles property of the spring-boot-maven-plugin in the Maven profile such as :

<project>
    <...>
    <profiles>
        <profile>
            <id>development</id>
            <activation>
                <activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault>
            </activation>
            <build>
                <plugins>
                    <plugin>
                        <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
                        <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                        <configuration>
                            <profiles>
                                <profile>development</profile>
                            </profiles>
                        </configuration>
                    </plugin>
                </plugins>
            </build>
        </profile>
    <profiles>
    </...>
</project>

You can run the following command to use both the Spring Boot and the Maven development profile :

mvn spring-boot:run -Pdevelopment

---

If you want to be able to map any Spring Boot profiles to a Maven profile with the same profile name, you could define a single Maven profile and enabling that as the presence of a Maven property is detected. This property would be the single thing that you need to specify as you run the mvn command.
The profile would look like :

    <profile>
        <id>spring-profile-active</id>
        <activation>
            <property>
                <name>my.active.spring.profiles</name>
            </property>
        </activation>
        <build>
            <plugins>
                <plugin>
                    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
                    <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                    <configuration>
                        <profiles>
                            <profile>${my.active.spring.profiles}</profile>
                        </profiles>
                    </configuration>
                </plugin>
            </plugins>
        </build>
    </profile>

And you can run the following command to use both the Spring Boot and the Maven development profile :

mvn spring-boot:run -Dmy.active.spring.profiles=development

or :

mvn spring-boot:run -Dmy.active.spring.profiles=integration

or :

 mvn spring-boot:run -Dmy.active.spring.profiles=production

And so for...

This kind of configuration makes sense as in the generic Maven profile you rely on the my.active.spring.profiles property that is passed to perform some tasks or value some things.
For example I use this way to configure a generic Maven profile that packages the application and build a docker image specific to the environment selected.

You should use the Spring Boot Maven Plugin:

<project>  
  ...
  <build>
    ...
    <plugins>
      ...
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>1.5.1.RELEASE</version>
        <configuration>
          <profiles>
            <profile>foo</profile>
            <profile>bar</profile>
          </profiles>
        </configuration>
        ...
      </plugin>
      ...
    </plugins>
    ...
  </build>
  ...
</project>

Answer 4

There are multiple ways to set profiles for your springboot application.

1. You can add this in your property file:

   spring.profiles.active=dev
   

2. Programmatic way:

   SpringApplication.setAdditionalProfiles("dev");
   

3. Tests make it very easy to specify what profiles are active

   @ActiveProfiles("dev")
   

4. In a Unix environment

   export spring_profiles_active=dev
   

5. JVM System Parameter

   -Dspring.profiles.active=dev
   

Example: Running a springboot jar file with profile.

java -jar -Dspring.profiles.active=dev application.jar

Answer 5

Or rather easily:

mvn spring-boot:run -Dspring-boot.run.profiles={profile_name}

Answer 6

I would like to run an automation test in different environments.
So I add this to command maven command:

spring-boot:run -Drun.jvmArguments="-Dspring.profiles.active=productionEnv1"
