Original question
I have a properties file located in Tomcat and a properties file for testing located in src / test / resources.
I currently have the following setting. My properties files are loaded into my XML config.xml files
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:p="http://www.springframework.org/schema/p"
xmlns:cache="http://www.springframework.org/schema/cache"
xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context" xmlns:tx="http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx"
xsi:schemaLocation="
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/context http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx/spring-tx.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/cache http://www.springframework.org/schema/cache/spring-cache.xsd">
<context:component-scan base-package="be.omniatravel.service" />
<context:property-placeholder
location="file:${catalina.base}/conf/omniatravel.properties"
ignore-unresolvable="true" />
<tx:annotation-driven />
</beans>
test config.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:p="http://www.springframework.org/schema/p"
xmlns:cache="http://www.springframework.org/schema/cache"
xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context" xmlns:tx="http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx"
xsi:schemaLocation="
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/context http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx/spring-tx.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/cache http://www.springframework.org/schema/cache/spring-cache.xsd">
<context:component-scan base-package="be.omniatravel.service" />
<context:property-placeholder
location="classpath:omniatravel_test.properties"
ignore-unresolvable="true" />
<tx:annotation-driven />
</beans>
And I can access these values by doing this in my Java files
public class SunnycarsClient extends WebServiceGatewaySupport {
@Value("${sunnycars.serviceUri}")
private String uri;
@Value("${sunnycars.operatingKey}")
private String key;
@Value("${sunnycars.passphrase}")
private String passphrase;
}
Currently, the operating key and passphrase are stored in these properties as flat text. I want to keep them as an encrypted value in order to minimize the risk and still have access to how I do it now.
Update 1
So now I have replaced the contents of config.xml with
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:p="http://www.springframework.org/schema/p"
xmlns:cache="http://www.springframework.org/schema/cache"
xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context" xmlns:tx="http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx"
xsi:schemaLocation="
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/context http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx http://www.springframework.org/schema/tx/spring-tx.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/cache http://www.springframework.org/schema/cache/spring-cache.xsd">
<context:component-scan base-package="be.omniatravel.service" />
<bean

<property name="config">

</bean>
</property>
</bean>
</constructor-arg>
<property name="locations">
<list>
<value>file:${catalina.base}/conf/omniatravel.properties</value>
</list>
</property>
</bean>
<bean id="dataSource" class="org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource"
destroy-method="close">
<property name="sunnycarsMarshallerUri">
<value>${sunnycars.marshallerUri}</value>
</property>
<property name="sunnycarsServiceUri">
<value>${sunnycars.serviceUri}</value>
</property>
<property name="sunnycarsContextPath">
<value>${sunnycars.contextPath}</value>
</property>
<property name="sunnycarsOperatingKey">
<value>${sunnycars.operatingKey}</value>
</property>
<property name="sunnycarsPassphrase">
<value>${sunnycars.passphrase}</value>
</property>
</bean>
<tx:annotation-driven />
</beans>
But it’s still not clear to me how I should access them from my Java code.
propeties sunnycars.operatingKey = THE_KEY sunnycars.operatingKey = enc (ENCRYPTED_KEY), ENCRYPTED_KEY?
