propertySources Shows Empty (Spring Cloud Config)


I am trying to learn Spring Cloud. So I created a new project using Spring Starter (a very basic one)

I configured my application.properties like so:

server.port=9090
spring.cloud.config.server.native.searchLocations=file://H:/opt/app/app.static.properties
spring.profiles.active=native

But when I start my Spring Boot application, it starts fine (from what I can say), but when I hit URL http://localhost:9090/config/default/master

I get the output on the browser:

{"name":"config","profiles":["default"],"label":"master","version":null,"state":null,"propertySources":[]}

My Console output is:

Shouldn't the propertySources be full of the property file entries? I am new to this. So mostly learning from tutorials and guides. Is my understanding correct?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.


Solution

  • The searchLocations property accepts a location of files and/or sub-directories. try spring.cloud.config.server.native.searchLocations=file://H:/opt/app/ instead of spring.cloud.config.server.native.searchLocations=file://H:/opt/app/app.static.properties and hit http://localhost:9090/config/default/master/app.static.properties
