How is config admin data stored?

Hi, I created a Karaf feature that contains a configuration block and when I install it into Karaf it is properly recognized and registered with the given PID. I can however not find where Karaf stores that configuration information. I assumed that a new file with the corresponding PID will be cre

Re: How is config admin data stored?

Hi Lothar it's in memory by default. tag in feature only populate ConfigAdmin (memory only by default), and doesn't flush in the etc folder. To populate the etc folder, use : it populates the etc folder and load ConfigAdmin using this config file. Regards JB On 06/24/2013 03:30 PM, Lotha

Re: How is config admin data stored?

Hi, JB told you only half the truth (21) ;) Configuration Admin service keeps the configuration in Memory that's correct but it's also stored in the cache folder where the bundle information is stored. The etc folder is actually used by the File Installer that scans for changes and populates the

Re: How is config admin data stored?

Thanks Achim, you are right, I forgot to mention the cache folder ;) Another thing: etc folder is used by FileInstall for load of the configuration, but also by config:update command and config MBeans to flush a configuration in the etc folder (for instance config:edit && config:update creates

Hi JB, I think we have a issue for that, and it should be an optional feature :) https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-545 regards, Achim 2013/6/24 Jean-Baptiste Onofré > Thanks Achim, you are right, I forgot to mention the cache folder ;) > > Another thing: etc folder is used by FileIns

Correct, and it's a pita that I forgot it: I created this Jira ;) Regards JB On 06/24/2013 03:50 PM, Achim Nierbeck wrote: Hi JB, I think we have a issue for that, and it should be an optional feature :) https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-545 regards, Achim 2013/6/24 Jean-Baptiste O

Re: How is config admin data stored?

I think it should at least create the file when the data is modified via config amin (e.g. the web interface). Creating it on feature install is a bonus, but not strictly necessary Lothar Werzinger Sent from a mobile device. -- This message and any attachment (the "message") is intended solel

Re: How is config admin data stored?

Through the web-interface should already be, if I remember correctly. There used to be a special flag or property available in the webconsole for this. regards, Achim 2013/6/24 Lothar Werzinger > I think it should at least create the file when the data is modified via > config amin (e.g. the w

Re: How is config admin data stored?

Currently config admin keeps track if the config was originally read from a file. If yes then changes are also written back to the original file. If no then changes are only done in memory. So I think it would make sense to have an option on the config element to decide if it should be persiste

Re: How is config admin data stored?

It does that if the FileInstall felix.fileinstall.filename property exist in the configuration PID. For the config element, we can do exactly as we do in config:update command and Config MBean. Regards JB On 06/25/2013 08:52 AM, Christian Schneider wrote: Currently config admin keeps track

Re: How is config admin data stored?

ahh, yes that's the property one needs ... (and I was looking for ...) so basically it should already do if one supplies this property in the config element, wouldn't it? So basically we should close that issue with a little bit of documentation :-) If this property felix.fileinstall.filename=foo.

Re: How is config admin data stored?

Just tested it, unfortunately it's not enough to have this property set when installing this via features. Therefore we still need to program something, the issue needs to stay open. regards, Achim 2013/6/25 Jean-Baptiste Onofré > Yup, exactly ;) > > Regards > JB > > > On 06/25/2013 10:17 AM,

Re: How is config admin data stored?

Anyway, it would have been just a workaround: element should behaves as config:update or ConfigMBean. Regards JB On 06/25/2013 11:34 AM, Achim Nierbeck wrote: Just tested it, unfortunately it's not enough to have this property set when installing this via features. Therefore we still need to

Hi How can I force to create the config file in etc using config:edit/config:update with nonexisting pid in 3.0.0? I tried to add the felix.fileinstall.filename property but the file is not created. Best regards Krzysztof On 25.06.2013 10:17, Achim Nierbeck wrote: ahh, yes that's the proper

Re: How is config admin data stored?

Hi Krzysztof, config:edit should do the trick straight forward using the ConfigAdmin persistence. However, I don't see the persistence adapter call (I remember that Christian did a change around that). I gonna create a Jira about that and fix that for 3.0.1. Regards JB On 12/26/2013 03:15 A
