Properties
Under the etc/ directory in both the source and the binary
distributions, several files are provided which help to configure
OMERO.server:
- https://github.com/ome/openmicroscopy/blob/develop/etc/omero.properties
Since 5.5, the following repositories now have a
propertiesfile with the properties used in the repository itself. See omero-model.properties, omero-common.properties, omero-server.properties, omero-blitz.properties.- https://github.com/ome/openmicroscopy/blob/develop/etc/hibernate.properties
Required by Hibernate since some properties are only configurable via a classpath:hibernate.properties file
- https://github.com/ome/openmicroscopy/blob/develop/etc/logback.xml
Logging configuration
- https://github.com/ome/openmicroscopy/blob/develop/etc/build.properties
The properties that you will most likely want to change
etc/local.propertiesLocal file overriding
etc/build.properties(used by build only)
The most useful of the properties are listed in a glossary.
On creation of an OmeroContext, the lookup for properties is (first wins):
Properties passed into the constructor (if none, then the default properties in config.xml)
System.properties set via “java -Dproperty=value”
Configuration files in order listed.
This ordering is defined for the various components via “placeholder configurers” in the following file in https://github.com/ome/omero-server:
Once configured at start, all values declared in one of the mentioned ways can be used in Spring configurations via the syntax:
<bean id=…>
<property name="mySetter" value="${property.name}"/>
</bean>
