Hi Kaushik sir, please add few courses to learn algorithms and DS. Your teaching skills are awesome.

Using @PropertySources we can load properties mentioned in an external file. These properties are loaded into Environment. We can use Environment to access properties loaded from an external file. I found this use-case to use Environment a very useful.

I think that a correct use of environment is to check when diagnosing. If we receive unexpected values on properties. Then we can discover what is happening.

Thank you for more specific information

[rashpalgill]

you can use Environment in order to validate if input profile is one of the valid allowed profiles.

Not able to find spring cloud config server related video

[gauravmam]

Hi Kaushik, The series is amazing. Thank you. I have a question, how do I take the the DB connection parameters as a rest API input from the user and connect to a that database , ideally that refreshes the DB connection at every API request without having to restart the spring application? Can I make use of the properties configuration somehow? How to do that along with spring data JPA repo?

[talkabu]

i think, we should like (or dislike) the video if we watch it.
there are 32K views and only 600+ + 27 comments and responses. We should learn to appreciate the efforts.
Also it will serve as a feedback as well...

Kaushik, Is the Environment Controller exists in the spring inbuilt framerwork itself? Or do we need to have any dependency war?

[dowlathbashag]

Kaushik, have an query ....how to communicate two services in micro service and if one service is not responding what is the behavior for other one...these two serveries are dependent each other.

[danepane]

So is injecting a property vs using Environment.getProperty effectively the same thing or am I missing something?

[aneksingh]

Hey Kaushik, how you get to know these Hidden gems of Spring Boot like Environment class :-), Please suggest

[MultiMukesh]

Kaushik, thanks for wonderful teaching. one question, if we combine all the profiles together and deploy the jar, let's say in dev, won't the dev server will have prod values as well, won't that be an issue?
