如果 git 是版本控制，如何将 spring 云配置服务器指向由客户端决定的文件夹

Question

Am trying spring cloud config server and client as stand-alone separate applications.

on git, i have folder structure like below-

my-config
----projectfolder1
--------application.properties
----projectfolder2
--------application.properties

I would like that spring cloud client named "projectfolder1" should search
application.properties within projectfolder1 on git from spring cloud server ie
----projectfolder1
--------application.properties

and client "projectfolder2" should get the below mentioned properties from spring cloud config server
----projectfolder2
--------application.properties

My Spring Cloud Config server application.properties has- spring.cloud.config.server.git.search-paths='{application}'

projectfolder1 in its bootstrap.properties has spring.application.name=projectfolder1

and projectfolder2 in its bootstrap.properties has spring.application.name=projectfolder2

According to spring cloud config documentation '{application}' in search path should find the files within the "resolved application name" folder on git. But the above '{application}' doesn't work for me. Clients projectfolder1 and projectfolder2 are not able to get any property at all.

pls assist. i know its possible duplicate of another question on stack overflow. but that question is not resolved and i do not have rights to comment on any question being a new user, So i created this as another question here.

I solved it myself. The trick is to give search-path {application} without quotes as given below. It was a little tricky as spring documentation mentions it as '{application}', probably spring developers just wanted to highlight it with quotes.

spring.cloud.config.server.git.search-paths={application}
instead of spring.cloud.config.server.git.search-paths='{application}'
