Others have answered so I'll add my 2-cents.
You can either use autoconfiguration (i.e. don't use a @Configuration to create a datasource) or java configuration.
Auto-configuration:
define your datasource type then set the type properties. E.g.
spring.datasource.type=com.zaxxer.hikari.HikariDataSource
spring.datasource.hikari.driver-class-name=org.h2.Driver
spring.datasource.hikari.jdbc-url=jdbc:h2:mem:testdb
spring.datasource.hikari.username=sa
spring.datasource.hikari.password=password
spring.datasource.hikari.max-wait=10000
spring.datasource.hikari.connection-timeout=30000
spring.datasource.hikari.idle-timeout=600000
spring.datasource.hikari.max-lifetime=1800000
spring.datasource.hikari.leak-detection-threshold=600000
spring.datasource.hikari.maximum-pool-size=100
spring.datasource.hikari.pool-name=MyDataSourcePoolName
Java configuration:
Choose a prefix and define your data source
spring.mysystem.datasource.type=com.zaxxer.hikari.HikariDataSource
spring.mysystem.datasource.jdbc-
url=jdbc:sqlserver://databaseserver.com:18889;Database=MyDatabase;
spring.mysystem.datasource.username=dsUsername
spring.mysystem.datasource.password=dsPassword
spring.mysystem.datasource.driver-class-name=com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
spring.mysystem.datasource.max-wait=10000
spring.mysystem.datasource.connection-timeout=30000
spring.mysystem.datasource.idle-timeout=600000
spring.mysystem.datasource.max-lifetime=1800000
spring.mysystem.datasource.leak-detection-threshold=600000
spring.mysystem.datasource.maximum-pool-size=100
spring.mysystem.datasource.pool-name=MySystemDatasourcePool
Create your datasource bean:
@Bean(name = { "dataSource", "mysystemDataSource" })
@ConfigurationProperties(prefix = "spring.mysystem.datasource")
public DataSource dataSource() {
return DataSourceBuilder.create().build();
}
You can leave the datasource type out, but then you risk spring guessing what datasource type to use.
