#Overview
This application loads and makes the external configuration available to rest of the applications. Note that the external configuration can be hosted either on GitHub or on local file system.
The respective applications pick up the configuration based on a <spring.application.name>.yml
file defined in the configuration by matching the service's spring.application.name
property defined in the bootstrap.yml
file.
##Pre-requisites
- This is the first application that needs to run since it pulls the configuration information(like what port to run etc) that is needed by rest of the applications to start.
- Build the application by running the
./gradlew clean build
gradle command at the "config-server" project root folder on the terminal. - If you want to run the application as jar file, then run
java -jar build/libs/sample-config-server-0.0.1.jar
command at the terminal.
