Spring Cloud config-Quick Start

Start the server:

$ cd spring-cloud-config-server$ ../mvnw spring-boot:run

the server is a spring boot application, so you can run it from the IDE instead of liking it (the main class is ConfigServerApplication ). then try a client:

$ curl localhost:8888/foo/development{"name":"development","label":"master","propertySources":[  {"name":"https://github.com/scratches/config-repo/foo-development.properties","source":{"bar":"spam"}},  {"name":"https://github.com/scratches/config-repo/foo.properties","source":{"foo":"bar"}}]}

The default strategy for locating resources is to clone a git repository (in spring.cloud.config.server.git.uri ) and use it to initialize a mini SpringApplication . A small application is Environment used to enumerate property sources and publish through JSON endpoints.

The HTTP service has resources in the following format:

/{application}/{profile}[/{label}]/{application}-{profile}.yml/{label}/{application}-{profile}.yml/{application}-{profile}.properties/{label}/{application}-{profile}.properties

Where "Application" is SpringApplication injected as in spring.config.name (that is, the regular spring boot application is typically "application"), the profile is the active profile (or a comma-separated list of properties), and "label" is an optional git tag (default is "Master").

Spring Cloud Config server provides configuration for remote clients from a git repository (must be provided): source

spring:  cloud:    config:      server:        git:          uri: https://github.com/spring-cloud-samples/config-repo
