I guess for the development environment is doesn't matter but I see lots of instances of dvndb as a database name in the main repository code. I'm just curious where this database name gets set for containers?
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Dec 08 2023 at 13:26):I think it comes from here: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/blob/develop/src/main/resources/META-INF/microprofile-config.properties#L35
Notification Bot (Dec 08 2023 at 14:34):kuhlaid has marked this topic as resolved.
Oliver Bertuch (Dec 14 2023 at 07:50):@Philip Durbin no it's not coming from that file. Oh how I wish it would work that way. These defaults are defined here: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/blob/1f9e10cfc8acb85780db641d1a6644eb62545b05/src/main/java/edu/harvard/iq/dataverse/util/DataSourceProducer.java#L24
Oliver Bertuch (Dec 14 2023 at 07:50):The reason for this is the way how Payara works
Oliver Bertuch (Dec 14 2023 at 07:51):We cannot have read properties from the WAR shipped microprofile-config.properties file when the @DataSourceDefinition is being handled.
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Dec 14 2023 at 11:49):Right, right, @DataSourceDefinition. How soon I forget! Thanks!
Oliver Bertuch (Dec 14 2023 at 12:45):rg dataverse.db.name :wink:
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Dec 14 2023 at 13:22):I wonder if we should mention this stuff in our docs for the base image. Or somewhere in the Container Guide (or maybe Dev Guide).
Oliver Bertuch (Dec 14 2023 at 14:12):I'm sorry, mention what exactly?
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Dec 14 2023 at 14:12):That we're using @DataSourceDefinition. Maybe in the dev guide.
