Goal
This is a small collection of sbt-native-packager examples. Each example is very small and should be easy to understand. Pick the ones you need and tailor your packaging process.
Not all examples are 100% tested. Just open an issue if something doesn't work
Examples
Currently all examples are tested for Debian only. Feel free to correct and contribute.
Application configuration
Your application has an external configuration, which you want to change and the application should pick up this changes.
Requirements
- Linux OS (debian/rpm)
- Typesafe Config
How it's done
Typesafe config uses the system property config.file to pass
in a configuration location. So you don't need to add a folder to the
classpath, which could be a potential security risk.
Project
You can find a working example at application-conf
Log4j configuration
This is related to the Application configuration. This time we use log4j.
Requirements
- Linux OS (debian/rpm)
- Log4j 2 (works in a similar way with 1.x)
How it's done
Log4j uses the system property log4j.configurationFile to pass
in a configuration location. So you don't need to add a folder to the
classpath, which could be a potential security risk.
Log4j 2 as also a cool auto reconfigurate feature, which can come in very handy.
Project
You can find a working example at log4j-conf
Custom Startup Parameters
A small example how to configure your startup parameters with SBT Native Packager.
You'll see how to add java system properties and application arguments. We
also change the -Xmx and -Xms settings.
Requirements
- Linux OS (debian/rpm)
How it's done
Create a file src/templates/etc-default and fill it with the content you need.
Project
You can find a working example at startscript-parameters
