[jira] [Commented] (DELTASPIKE-1402) ~/.deltaspike/apache-deltaspike.properties doesn't pickup changes during runtime

["Romain Manni-Bucau (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DELTASPIKE-1402?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17120916#comment-17120916 ] 

Romain Manni-Bucau commented on DELTASPIKE-1402:
------------------------------------------------

I guess we need to refine the target:

 
 # hot reloading
 # bootstrap config (what if the config is mapped to a runtime model, it can be reloaded, it will never be refreshed)
 # immutable deployments (some deployments will not want to reload cause it means potentially breaking a valid deployment)
 # performances: most servlet container have a dev mode with reloading at read and a prod mode where it is disabled to avoid any IO which are cheap if done alone but can be expensive if the disk is used with an IO expensive app

Therefore I suspect we can need a toggle to enable a refresh at read or a cached mode (read once). Using an enum it can enable us to add later a background refresh if needed so I would add something like

 
{code:java}
deltaspike.configsource.userhome.reloadStrategy=[SYNCHRONOUS_AT_READ|NONE]
{code}
Hope it makes sense.

> Right now the {{ConfigSource}} registered via {{org.apache.deltaspike.core.impl.config.DefaultConfigSourceProvider#addUserHomeConfigSource}} does not reload dynamically if the file got changed.
> That means DeltaSpike Config right now doesn't automatically pick up changes in this file.
> The same is true for other {{org.apache.deltaspike.core.impl.config.PropertyFileConfigSource}} but most of them are in a jar anyway, so it doesn't make any difference.
> Of course for PropertyFileConfigSources representing native files on the disk it might also be nice to detect dynamic changes.
> It might be perfectly fine to have changes only picked up based on the last-changed timestamp of the file and only checked every minute or so.
