Jboss-web.xml for different enviroments

Question

For my spring boot microservice, how could I have different versions of Jboss-web.xml configured for development and production. I need this because the security-domain and valve tags apply for production but not development. Hence, I need to either disable these two tags for development or have separate jboss-web.xml for dev and prod environment and have the right file picked up based on the profile or environment. Please advise.

You can organize your resources (src/main/resources) by environment:

In the build tag from pom.xml enable filtering by environment:

<resource>
    <directory>src/main/resources/${environment}/app-context</directory>
        <filtering>false</filtering>
        <includes>
            <include>*</include>
        </includes>
    <targetPath>${project.build.directory}/${warName}/WEB-INF</targetPath>
</resource>

And execute by command line with this:

mvn clean install -Denvironment="development"
