Hybris Run Time Config File

Starting from SAP COMMERCE 1808 Release, Hybris comes with a new tip to make properties update much easier when the server is already up and running. It’s useful most of the time for dev environment where we need to update a bunch of properties at once.

You need to add the following lines to your local.properties :

#Required (put path of your properties file)
runtime.config.file.path=/..../hybris/config/your_runtime_update_config.properties

If you want to check either your properties file is loaded or not you have to enable debug log on de.hybris.platform.util.config.FileBasedConfigLoader

#Optional
log4j2.logger.FileBasedConfigLoader.name=de.hybris.platform.util.config.FileBasedConfigLoader
log4j2.logger.FileBasedConfigLoader.level=DEBUG

And you will get a log like this :

DEBUG [RuntimeConfigRefreshRunner (master)] [FileBasedConfigLoader] Runtime config watched file: /..../hybris/config/your_runtime_update_config.properties
DEBUG [RuntimeConfigRefreshRunner (master)] [FileBasedConfigLoader] dynamic properties file changed: false [file modifiedTime: 1567598757000, lasLoaded: 1567670610890]
