boxlang-configuration

Configure BoxLang runtime settings by editing boxlang.json to define datasources, caches, executors, modules, logging, and schedulers. Running your BoxLang project immediately applies the runtime configuration globally or per-application.

Yes, you can override BoxLang configuration values defined in boxlang.json by using environment variable substitution and JVM properties. This supports safe, scalable runtime behavior across local development, cloud deployments, and production servers.

The best way to manage per-application overrides in BoxLang is through Application.bx integration. This allows individual applications to specify custom datasources, cache mappings, and module tuning while inheriting global runtime defaults.

Yes, BoxLang supports environment variable substitution for production deployments. This allows you to safely override JSON configuration values and manage runtime settings across varied environments without modifying the core boxlang.json file.

In boxlang.json, you can configure core runtime components including datasources, caches, executors, modules, logging, security settings, and schedulers. This centralized configuration guides safe runtime behavior across the platform.

Per-application BoxLang settings may fail to override global defaults if Application.bx integration is improperly wired or environment variable substitution conflicts with boxlang.json values. Validate your JSON overrides and module loading configurations to ensure correct hierarchy resolution.
