From server.sh -h:

Server should support config server ----------------------------------- Key: ISPN-11010 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-11010 Project: Infinispan Issue Type: Enhancement Components: Server Affects Versions: 10.1.0.Beta1 Reporter: Diego Lovison Priority: Major As a developer, I would like to store the configurations outside the project. A few changes are required before that: 1) Server should support all in one config file (xml|yalm) The config file should support all configuration available at `server.sh -h` Example: *config.yaml* {code:yaml} bind-address: localhost server-config: infinispan.xml {code} In this case, I am going to start the server with: server.sh --file-config=config.yaml 2) In order to have all configuration in one place, as a developer I would like to have the following: {code:yaml} infinispan: config: server: git: uri: https://github.com/infinispan/config-repo username: foo password: foo123 bind-address: localhost server-config: infinispan.xml {code} Different authentications should be supported like: {code:yaml} uri: git@gitserver.com:infinispan/repo1.git ignoreLocalSshSettings: true hostKey: myKey hostKeyAlgorithm: ssh-rsa privateKey: | -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY----- bLaH -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY----- {code} It allows the team have a centralised configuration files with formal approval (aka PR).
