Answer 1

1. Add the profiles of dev and Prod in your file pom.xml

<profiles>
    <profile>
        <id>dev</id>
        <properties>
            <spring.profile>dev</spring.profile>
        </properties>
        <activation>
            <activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault>
        </activation>
    </profile>

    <profile>
        <id>prod</id>
        <properties>
            <spring.profile>prod</spring.profile>
        </properties>
    </profile>
</profiles>

2. Add the following line to your file application properties:

[email protected]@

3. Create two files that represent your dev and Prod

application-dev.properties
application-prod.properties

4. Execute the project according to the profile

dev: mvn clean compile spring-boot:run

Prod: mvn clean compile spring-boot:run -Pprod

On my Github you have a project with this setup. Links:

pom.xml

application properties

application-dev.properties

application-Prod.properties
