Thank you very much! It was very helpful. I had to use @Value("#{'${truckconfigurator.make}'.split(', ')}") to read a list of comma-separated values. This is not at all user readable. Creating this TruckConfigurator class and using it with getters and setters is more readable...

How can we read values from arguments and use those values to load the data source dynamically in spring data jpa? Ex: if i pass abc as user and pwd it should load that schema of the db and if something else then that schema like wise.

Is there a way to configure the propertysource path as well? Basically what of we want to use a network shared path and it's different for different environment

Do you have any example for how to read Dependency Jar referring to its own application.properties?

Nice. Is it a way to get updated values of properties without restarting the application ? I did with Apache library with java Properties.

Hi. I have a problem with dates. What is the right configuration in application.properties for time zone Santiago of Chile. I have this error: The server time zone value 'Hora est. Sudamérica Pacífico' is unrecognized or represents more than one time zone. You must configure either the server or JDBC driver (via the serverTimezone configuration property) to use a more specific time zone value if you want to utilize time zone support.
