[FIXED] Spring boot Mongo DB .yml configuration

Issue

When I use MySQL and hibernate for spring boot, I use below configuration in .yml file

spring:
  datasource:
    url: jdbc:mysql://localhost/userName?zeroDateTimeBehavior=convertToNull
    username: userName
    password: password
    driverClassName: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

  jpa:
    show-sql: false
    hibernate:
      dialect: org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect
      format_sql: false
      ddl-auto: update 

If it is mongoDB instead of MySQL and hibernate how does it change?

Solution

The mongodb properties are all prefixed with spring.data.mongodb. For user property you would use

spring:
  data:
      mongodb:
        user: test
        password: passwordvalue
        uri: mongodb://host:27017/db

The list of available mongodb properties are here:

https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/common-application-properties.html

You can find them at source for how they are loaded on github:
