spring-profiles

I have a Spring boot Web application. The application is configured via java classes using the @Configurable annotation. I have introduced two profiles: 'install', 'normal'. If the install profile is active, none of the Beans that require DB connection is loaded. I want to create a controller where the user can set up the db connection parameters and When it's done I want to switch the active profile from 'install' to 'normal' and refresh the application context, so the Spring can init every bean that needs DB data source. I can modify the list of active profiles from code, without problems,

How to set active profile in spring boot Application. This application will be deployed in stand alone Tomcat. I have 2 property files application-{profile}.properties. My Application class @SpringBootApplication public class Application extends SpringBootServletInitializer { @Override protected SpringApplicationBuilder configure(SpringApplicationBuilder application) { return application.sources(Application.class); } public static void main(String[] args) { System.setProperty(AbstractEnvironment.ACTIVE_PROFILES_PROPERTY_NAME, "dev"); ApplicationContext ctx = SpringApplication.run(Application

I am just wondering what the order of precedence is when multiple Spring active profiles have been specified . Say I want the default profile to be active but the dev profile to override it when there are several identical elements (beans for instance) to choose from but with different profiles... Say for instance I have two PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer beans configured with "default" and "dev" values a environment profiles. If I use the following profile activation: -Dspring.profiles.active="default,dev" Will the dev profile override the default one? If not how can the above behavior

I have a Spring project which uses another project. Each project has its own spring profile initialize from java code using applicationContext.xml and *.properties for each profile. I inject the profile from args[] . The problem is that second project uses the default configuration for the env from the applicationContext.xml I can not inject the env from args[] to the second project and I tried looking for an article which will explain how Spring profile works. Is there a hierarchy on which it will look the profile when default is not configured at applicationContext.xml ? Is System var

I have an application with maven as a build tool. I am using maven profiles to set up different properties from different profiles. What i would like to do is that all active profiles in maven will be ported to spring active profiles as well so i can reference them in bean signature ( @profile ). but i am not sure how to do it. for example: consider the following maven setup <profiles> <profile> <id>profile1</id> <activation> <activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault> </activation> <properties> </properties> </profile> <profile> <id>profile2</id> <properties> </properties> </profile> <profile>

I need to code different logic based on different current Environment profile. How can you get the current active and default profiles from Spring? aweigold You can autowire the Environment @Autowired Environment env; Environment offers: String[] getActiveProfiles() , String[] getDefaultProfiles() , and boolean acceptsProfiles(String... profiles) Extending User1648825's nice simple answer (I can't comment and my edit was rejected): @Value("${spring.profiles.active}") private String activeProfile; This may throw an IllegalArgumentException if no profiles are set (I get a null value). This may
