Config Files Parameter

Description

The Flyway configuration files to load (in addition to those loaded automatically).

Relative paths will be resolved against the Working Directory.

Note: It is possible to have Flyway read from the standard input using the special option -configFiles=-. It is simpler to use environment variables and/or variable substitution if you need more dynamic configuration.

Type

String array

Default

[]

Usage

Command-line

./flyway -configFiles="my.toml" info

To pass in multiple files, separate their names with commas:

./flyway -configFiles=path/to/myAlternativeConfig.toml,other.toml migrate

This will also work with .conf config files.

Command-line via standard input

Read a single option from echo:

echo $'flyway.url=jdbc:h2:mem:mydb' | flyway info -configFiles=-

Read multiple options from echo, delimited by newlines:

echo $'flyway.url=jdbc:h2:mem:mydb\nflyway.user=sa' | flyway info -configFiles=-

Use cat to read a config file and pipe it directly into Flyway:

cat flyway.conf | flyway migrate -configFiles=-

Use gpg to encrypt a config file, then pipe it into Flyway.

Encrypt the config file:

gpg -e -r "Your Name" flyway.conf

Decrypt the file and pipe it to Flyway:

gpg -d -q flyway.conf.gpg | flyway info -configFiles=-
