Configuration Reference

In addition to runtime configuration options that are supplied via environment variables or system properties (see Environment Variables, System Properties and Other Runtime Configuration Options) Cadenza also supports a large set of configuration files that are described in this section.

These configuration files are read from disk by looking into the directory specified with the CADENZA_CONFIG_PATH runtime option.

There are two files for bootstrapping the Cadenza configuration and a large amount of plugin configuration files:

  1. Plugins and Their Configurations : required, defines all the plugins that Cadenza will load. This in turn defines the set of features that are active and it also impacts what configuration files you need to provide for the activated plugins.

  2. Repository List: required unless repositories are defined in databaserepository configuration, defines all the repositories that Cadenza has access to. At least one repository must be configured for Cadenza to work.

  3. Plugin configuration files: depending on what features you have enabled in plugins.xml there will be more or less required configuration files you need to create.
