Spring Boot access static resources missing scr/main/resources

by

Just use Spring type ClassPathResource.

File file = new ClassPathResource("countries.xml").getFile();

As long as this file is somewhere on classpath Spring will find it. This can be src/main/resources during development and testing. In production, it can be current running directory.

EDIT: This approach doesn’t work if file is in fat JAR. In such case you need to use:

InputStream is = new ClassPathResource("countries.xml").getInputStream();
