@mesellings just need to update the properties for all the data sections before moving onto the Helm Charts.

@buccarel I have now completed the following:

  • Added in all 8.9 properties from the sheet to the properties update page.
  • Added the new properties to the property reference page except for the data ones which I will do next.

Then it will just be validation and adding Helm Chart values to the property reference page.

One other thing I noticed is there are a few discrepencies between the default values in the spreadsheet and the Javadoc I am using for descriptions (i.e. https://github.com/camunda/camunda/blob/updated-8.9.0-alpha3/configuration/src/main/java/io/camunda/configuration/Actor.java) - if I have to choose, which default value should I use?

@buccarel @RomanJRW I've merged this PR to get the changes in and avoid any conflicts as it is a large PR.

Summary:

  • This PR updates the changed properties for 8.9 page with all the 8.9 changed properties marked as completed in the spreadsheet.
  • Additionally, I began the task of adding all the new properties into the 8.9 properties page, but noticed @EuroLew is making updates here, hence merging now rather than later to make it easier to collaborate.
  • My next task is to update the data sections on this page, for example like @EuroLew has been doing with the secondary storage section. I will do this in a follow-up PR.
  • The final task will be to update all the properties to have Helm Chart entries - what is the best/easiest/fastest way of getting this info do you think @buccarel?
  • If I have time, I will go through this whole config section and give it a TW review etc to tidy everything up as well.
