Creating your own parameters

You can take advantage of the application configuration parameters feature to store your own parameters.

To create a new configuration parameter:

  • Go to Administration > Utilities > Database query.
  • Select JDBC option from the list at the bottom.
  • Write a query like this
    INSERT INTO OKM_CONFIG (CFG_KEY, CFG_TYPE, CFG_VALUE) VALUES ('your.property.name', 'string', 'some value');
  • Click at Execute button at top right.

The type value - CFG_VALUE column - must be written in lower case !.

Sample

You can access it from source code to the properties.

When the property not exists will be initialized with default value ( on sample code below "initial value").

// If the parameter not exists, by default is set to "initial value"
String value = ConfigDAO.getString("your.property.name", "initial value");
