Add properties by openfire.xml

Openfire Plugins
#1

Hi,

I want to set properties in openfire.xml.
I tried this

<plugin> 
    <restapi> 
      <enabled> 
        <prop>true</prop> 
      </enabled> 
    </restapi> 
  </plugin>

but after restart of Openfire, those properties are not set in ofproperty table.

in openfire.xml, it’s written this:

<!--
    This file stores bootstrap properties needed by Openfire.
    Property names must be in the format: "prop.name.is.blah=value"
    That will be stored as:
        <prop>
            <name>
                <is>
                    <blah>value</blah>
                </is>
            </name>
        </prop>

    Most properties are stored in the Openfire database. A
    property viewer and editor is included in the admin console.
-->

can someone help me to set properties in autosetup, please.
thanks for your support.

For me it seems that the comments in the xml files (also in the security.xml) are not exactly up-to-date with the code, there are some bugs in the code or the comments are just not clear enough. Autosetup supports only the properties listed in the code here.

I ended up writing the most of the properties directly to the property table in the database as I had no luck in getting them there from openfire.xml (except for some passwords with the help of security.xml).

That will defeat the purpose of the xml file but you can write it down the script at the start of the server that you can dump those values into database.

However why you need to do that ?
