Setting up LCA CS in Tomcat

Question

I am working on setting up LCA Collab Server with Tomcat and I'm trying to find a way to provide configuration in a reproducible way. For providing database credentials I've managed to automatically edit the relevant settings in "application.properties", however I wasn't able to find what settings control Elasticsearch setup. I have an OpenSearch cluster on a different host and I want to provide that directly to LCA CS server through configuration but I can't find how to do that.

What I would like to be able to do through configuration (not UI - preferably env vars or "application.properties") is to:

a) enable search feature

b) provide elastic search configuration (host/port/etc)

I would appreciate any advice

Answer 1

With the new release 2.5.0 it is now possible to configure these settings via application.properties, I added it in the manual https://greendelta.github.io/lca-collaboration-server-manual/chapter_8_3.html
