Whitelisting application properties in Spring Cloud Data Flow - spring-cloud-dataflow

Question

When I create a custom app for SCDF I can, according to the reference define relevant properties that are visible through the dashboard when creating a new stream/task. I created a spring-configuration-metadata-whitelist.properties file like this:
configuration-properties.classes=com.example.MySourceProperties
configuration-properties.names=my.prop1,my.prop2
When I create a new stream definition through the dashboard all properties defined in com.example.MySourceProperties are displayed in the properties dialog, but my.prop1 and my.prop2 are not. Both properties aren't optional and must always be set by the user. How can I include them in the properties dialog?

Answer 1

This tells it which class to pull these properties from Task1 properties class
That we can use with "#EnableConfigurationProperties(Task1Properties.class) declaration
configuration-properties.classes=com.shifthunter.tasks.Task1Properties
Task1Properties.java
package com.shifthunter.tasks;
import org.springframework.boot.context.properties.ConfigurationProperties;
#ConfigurationProperties("pulldata-task")
public class Task1Properties {
/**
* The path to get the source doc from
*/
private String sourceFilePath;
/**
* The path to put the destination doc
*/
private String destinationFilePath;
/**
* Property to drive the exit code
*/
private String controlMessage;
public String getSourceFilePath() {
return sourceFilePath;
}
public void setSourceFilePath(String sourceFilePath) {
this.sourceFilePath = sourceFilePath;
}
public String getDestinationFilePath() {
return destinationFilePath;
}
public void setDestinationFilePath(String destinationFilePath) {
this.destinationFilePath = destinationFilePath;
}
public String getControlMessage() {
return controlMessage;
}
public void setControlMessage(String controlMessage) {
this.controlMessage = controlMessage;
}
}

}
public class Task1 implements CommandLineRunner {
#Autowired
private Task1Properties config;
#Override
public void run(String... strings) throws Exception {
System.out.println("source: " + config.getSourceFilePath());
System.out.println("destination: " + config.getDestinationFilePath());
System.out.println("control message: " + config.getControlMessage());
if(config.getControlMessage().equals("fail")) {
System.out.println("throwing an exception ...");
throw new Exception("I'm ANGRY");
}
System.out.println("pulldata-task complete!");
}
}
