System properties governing code generation

Applies to ✅ Open Source Edition   ✅ Express Edition   ✅ Professional Edition   ✅ Enterprise Edition

Regardless if you're using a standalone code generation configuration, or if you're generating code with Maven, ant, or gradle, you can always provide default values for certain configuration elements through the following system properties:

  • -Djooq.codegen.configurationFile (path): Specify an external configuration file, rather than using the inline configuration, e.g. in Maven
  • -Djooq.codegen.jdbc.driver (class name): The JDBC driver to use for JDBC connection based code generation
  • -Djooq.codegen.jdbc.url (url): The JDBC URL to use for JDBC connection based code generation
  • -Djooq.codegen.jdbc.user (string): The JDBC user name to use for JDBC connection based code generation
  • -Djooq.codegen.jdbc.username (string, same as user): The JDBC user name to use for JDBC connection based code generation
  • -Djooq.codegen.jdbc.password (string): The JDBC password to use for JDBC connection based code generation
  • -Djooq.codegen.jdbc.autoCommit (boolean): Whether the JDBC connection should be put in autocommit mode
  • -Djooq.codegen.jdbc.initScript (string): A script to run after creating the JDBC connection, and before running the code generator
  • -Djooq.codegen.jdbc.initSeparator (string): The separator used to separate statements in the initScript, defaulting to ";"
  • -Djooq.codegen.logging (TRACE, DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR, FATAL): The log level to use
  • -Djooq.codegen.skip (boolean): Allows for skipping the execution of jOOQ code generation. Useful for larger builds, e.g. with Maven
  • -Djooq.codegen.target.packageName (string): The output package name for generated code
  • -Djooq.codegen.target.directory (string): The output directory for generated code
  • -Djooq.codegen.target.encoding (string): The output encoding for generated code
  • -Djooq.codegen.target.locale (string): The output locale for generated code

In case of conflict between the above default value and a more concrete, local configuration, the latter prevails and the default is overridden.
