Chapter 3. Configuring reactive data sources with Quarkus

Procedure

1. Navigate to your Quarkus project directory.

2. In the src/main/resources/application.properties file, set the value of the quarkus.datasource.reactive.url property to match the connection URL of your reactive data source:

   quarkus.datasource.reactive.url=<datasource_URL>

   For example, to set the reactive data source connection URL for the PostgreSQL data source:

   quarkus.datasource.reactive.url=postgresql:///your_database

3. Optionally, you can set the maximum number of connections in the connection pool of your data source to improve the performance of your application:

   quarkus.datasource.reactive.max-size=20

   For example, to add a postgresql data source with a reactive data source driver:

   quarkus.datasource.db-kind=postgresql
   quarkus.datasource.username=<your_username>
   quarkus.datasource.password=<your_password>
   
   quarkus.datasource.reactive.url=postgresql://localhost:5432/quarkus_test_database
   quarkus.datasource.reactive.max-size=20

Procedure

1. Navigate to your Quarkus project directory.
2. Open the src/main/resources/application.properties file.

3. Set the quarkus.datasource.reactive property to false to disable the reactive data source:

   quarkus.datasource.reactive=false
