How to use YamlPropertiesFactoryBean to load YAML files using Spring Framework 4.1?

by

With XML config I’ve been using this construct:

<context:annotation-config/>

<bean id="yamlProperties" class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.YamlPropertiesFactoryBean">
    <property name="resources" value="classpath:test.yml"/>
</bean>

<context:property-placeholder properties-ref="yamlProperties"/>

Of course you have to have the snakeyaml dependency on your runtime classpath.

I prefer XML config over the java config, but I recon it shouldn’t be hard to convert it.

edit:
java config for completeness sake

@Bean
public static PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer properties() {
  PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer propertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer = new PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer();
  YamlPropertiesFactoryBean yaml = new YamlPropertiesFactoryBean();
  yaml.setResources(new ClassPathResource("default.yml"));
  propertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer.setProperties(yaml.getObject());
  return propertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer;
}
