Using Spring Cloud Config without Git repo

Is it possible to use Spring Cloud Config without using any Git repo at all? I'm trying to test it with a local directory with this in application.properties:

spring.cloud.config.server.git.uri=file://${user.dir}/src/main/resources/config-repo

But I get the following error:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: No .git at file://path/to/src/main/resources/config-repo

So is it not possible to use Spring Cloud if one is not using Git at all?

UPDATE:

Thanks to Spencer's advice, I added the following:

spring.profiles.active=native spring.cloud.config.server.native.searchLocations=${user.dir}/src/main/resources/configs

And I have a file "bar.properties" inside "configs" with the following contents:

foo: bar

But the response I get is not reading the file:

{
  "name": "bar",
  "profiles": [
    "default"
  ],
  "label": "master",
  "propertySources": []
}

The URL I'm using is http://localhost:8888/bar/default

Am I missing something else? Thanks again in advance!

I had the same problem and I use this :

spring.cloud.config.server.git.uri=file:///G:/software installed ssd/intelij/spring-boot-project/microservice-with-config-server/git

the "git" is the name of my folder I put my file "limits-service.properties"

Also check the git local branch, be the "main" not "master", If not, change it to the main. After all check the properties are set are the same name, I made all this mistake, so I hope it is helpfull for the other people.thanks

This worked for Windows (I created a config folder in /Desktop):

spring.cloud.config.server.git.uri=file:///${user.home}/Desktop/config

The following didn't work so I used above:

spring.cloud.config.server.git.uri=file://${HOME}/Desktop/config

You can try this following ways:

file:\\C:/WORKSPACE/GIT/repo
file:///C:/microservices/repo
file:///C:/Users/test/Documents/workspace-sts-3.9.4.RELEASE/repo
file:\\C:/Users/test/Documents/workspace-sts-3.9.4.RELEASE/repo

try to make your path to the directory without specifying the name of the file:

file:///C:/Users/home/Desktop/yourProject/git-repo

For Windows I used it like this:

spring.cloud.config.server.git.uri=C:\\\\Users\\\\my.user\\\\Desktop\\\\config\\\\

You could try changing the search path to the following

classpath:/configs

Run with spring.profiles.active=native. See the File System Backend for more details. You'll want to set spring.cloud.config.server.native.searchLocations to the dirs you want to look at.
