Lab#17 Reading the data from the file system

1. Place YAML Files on C: Drive

In this lab we will be modify config server to read from the file system instead of the class path. Step#1 Take all the .yml configuration files and place them in a folder (e.g. on the C: drive)

2. Update application.yml Search Location

Step#2 Change the search location in the application.properties for the config server.

spring:
  application:
    name: configserver
  profiles:
    active: native
  cloud:
    config:
      server:
        native:
          # search-locations: classpath:/config
          search-locations: "file:///C://git//config"

server:
  port: 8071

3. Restart and Test

Step#4 Restart the config server and the microservices and test using Postman
