MuleSoft Mule 4 Tutorial: How to Use Global Configurations for Environment Properties

In order to use different properties for various environments like Dev, QA, Prod etc. Mule 4 provides options to use separate properties files which helps promoting your solution to different environments in a more sophisticated and dynamic manner without re-packaging the solution or without creating the deployable artifacts again & again.

In this tutorial and its accompanied video tutorial, you will learn how to use property files for different environments in Mule 4 and you will learn how to create .properties and .yaml files for application properties and then how to use Global Elements like Global Configuration Properties to refer to the created properties files and you will learn how to use Global Property as a placeholder to specify name of the environment for which properties file should be used. You will also learn how to use system arguments in MuleSoft AnyPoint Studio at runtime and pass instructions to the application in the form of such arguments to pick needed properties file.

MuleSoft Mule 4 Tutorial: Use Properties Files for Different Environments Using Global Configurations

In this Mule 4 Video Tutorial on TutorialsPedia YouTube channel, you will learn:

* You will learn how to add Configurations Properties global element in order to refer to the created properties files.

* You will learn how to use Global Property element to define a global property for environment name and then refer to this property when selecting a properties file.

* You will learn how to refer to the properties from these property files using ${propertyname} when configuring global elements (e.g. HTTP Listener host and port properties).

* You will learn how to pass arguments at run-time in AnyPoint Studio for environment name and then use respective properties file.

* Based on all above configurations, you will see a demonstration of a simple HTTP Listener based flow and observe the use of global properties file in action.
