propertiesgwt

Simple properties file reader for GWT

It provides a map with the content of a properties file to be used on the GWT client application.

maven

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.github.fworks</groupId>
  <artifactId>propertiesgwt</artifactId>
  <version>0.0.1</version>
</dependency>

How to use

1) Inherit the module

<!-- propertiesgwt -->
<inherits name="com.github.fworks.propertiesgwt.PropertiesGWT" />

2) Add the servlet config, you can pass a list of properties files separated by comma.

<!-- PropertiesGwt Servlet Config -->
<servlet>
	<servlet-name>propertiesGwtServlet</servlet-name>
	<servlet-class>com.github.fworks.propertiesgwt.server.PropertiesServlet</servlet-class>
	<init-param>
		<param-name>PROPERTIES_FILES</param-name>
		<param-value>application.properties</param-value>
	</init-param>
</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
	<servlet-name>propertiesGwtServlet</servlet-name>
	<url-pattern>/propertiesGwt</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

3) Just call the static methods

on your properties file:

property-name=blah

on the gwt code:

String value = PropertiesGwt.getValue("property-name");

Notes

It is simple as it sounds.
