Answer 1

If you are using maven, define your profiles as shown below within your pom.xml

    local
    
        true
    
    
        dbUrl
        dbuser
        dbPassword
        dbDriver
    


    dev
    
        dbUrl
        dbuser
        dbPassword
        dbDriver
    
    
        
            org.postgresql
            postgresql
        
    


    prod
    
        dbUrl
        dbuser
        dbPassword
        dbDriver
    

By default, i.e if No profile is selected, the local profile will always be use.

To select a specific profile in Spring Boot 2.x.x, use the below command.

mvn spring-boot:run -Dspring-boot.run.profiles=dev

If you want want to build/compile using properties of a specific profile, use the below command.

mvn clean install -Pdev -DprofileIdEnabled=true
