package io.ebean.config;

import io.ebean.DatabaseFactory;

The configuration used for creating a Database.

Used to programmatically construct an Database and optionally register it
with the DB singleton.


If you just use DB thout this programmatic configuration Ebean will read
the application.properties file and take the configuration from there. This usually
includes searching the class path and automatically registering any entity
classes and listeners etc.


DatabaseConfig config = new DatabaseConfig();
// read the ebean.properties and load
// those settings into this serverConfig object
config.loadFromProperties();
// explicitly register the entity beans to avoid classpath scanning
config.addClass(Customer.class);
config.addClass(User.class);
Database db = DatabaseFactory.create(config);


Note that ServerConfigProvider provides a standard Java ServiceLoader mechanism that can
be used to apply configuration to the DatabaseConfig.
