Hands-On Microservices with Kotlin

Using Yaml

First, we will rename our application.properties into application.yml, then we can change it to the following:

service:  message:    text: "hello"

This looks better for more complex configurations and will be our preferred method in the rest of the book.

In this example, the labels in the yaml file are in lowercase. This is because, even when able to ignore case as before, it is more standard in yaml files to be either in lowercase or camel case.
