info.magnolia.init
Class DefaultMagnoliaPropertiesResolver

java.lang.Object
  info.magnolia.init.DefaultMagnoliaPropertiesResolver

All Implemented Interfaces:

MagnoliaPropertiesResolver

@Singleton
public class DefaultMagnoliaPropertiesResolver
extends Object
implements MagnoliaPropertiesResolver

Resolves the paths of the properties files to load. The name of the file can be defined as a context parameter in web.xml. Multiple paths, comma separated, are supported (the first existing file in the list will be used), and the following variables will be used:

• ${servername}: name of the server where the webapp is running, lowercase
• ${webapp}: the last token in the webapp path (e.g. magnoliaPublic for a webapp deployed at tomcat/webapps/magnoliaPublic)

If no magnolia.initialization.file context parameter is set, the following default is assumed:

 <context-param>
   <param-name>magnolia.initialization.file</param-name>
   <param-value>
      WEB-INF/config/${servername}/${webapp}/magnolia.properties,
      WEB-INF/config/${servername}/magnolia.properties,
      WEB-INF/config/${webapp}/magnolia.properties,
      WEB-INF/config/default/magnolia.properties,
      WEB-INF/config/magnolia.properties
   </param-value>
 </context-param>
 

Advanced usage: deployment service

Using the ${servername} and ${webapp} properties you can easily bundle in the same webapp different set of configurations which are automatically applied dependending on the server name (useful for switching between development, test and production instances where the repository configuration need to be different) or the webapp name (useful to bundle both the public and admin log4j/jndi/bootstrap configuration in the same war). By default the initializer will try to search for the file in different location with different combination of servername and webapp: the default fallback directory will be used if no other environment-specific directory has been added.

The variables are provided by MagnoliaInitPaths.
