How to set up prod mode to have configuration file in conf directory (not inside jar)?

I'm using activator to create my project and I use the command universal:packageBin to generate a .zip file.

I was wondering if it's possible to set up the application to read the configuration file from conf folder instead of the configuration from classpath ( the .conf file inside the jar).

Is it possible? If it's, how can i do it?

See https://www.playframework.com/documentation/2.3.x/ProductionConfiguration for the mechanism of telling a Play application where to pickup its config from.

To tie that in with the universal:packageBin, just pass -Dconfig.file to the script inside the bin directory. e.g. if your application is called foo:

unzip foo-1.0-SNAPSHOT.zip foo-1.0-SNAPSHOT/bin/foo -Dconfig-file=/path/to/app.conf
