Using Wildcards
Hazelcast members and Java clients support wildcard configuration for all distributed data structures that
can be configured using Config, that is, for all except IAtomicLong,
IAtomicReference. Using an asterisk (*) character in the name, different
instances of maps, queues, topics, semaphores, near caches, etc. can be configured by a
single configuration.
A single asterisk (*) can be placed anywhere inside the configuration name.
For instance, a map named com.hazelcast.test.mymap can be configured using
one of the following configurations:
<hazelcast>
...
<map name="com.hazelcast.test.*">
...
</map>
<!-- OR -->
<map name="com.hazel*">
...
</map>
<!-- OR -->
<map name="*.test.mymap">
...
</map>
<!-- OR -->
<map name="com.*test.mymap">
...
</map>
...
</hazelcast>
hazelcast:
map:
com.hazelcast.test.*:
...
com.hazel*:
...
"*.test.mymap":
...
com.*test.mymap:
...
Notice that when the "*" character prefixes a value, the whole value should be in quotes when you use the YAML configuration.
A queue named com.hazelcast.test.myqueue can be configured using one
of the following configurations:
<hazelcast>
...
<queue name="*hazelcast.test.myqueue">
...
</queue>
<!-- OR -->
<queue name="com.hazelcast.*.myqueue">
...
</queue>
...
</hazelcast>
hazelcast:
queue:
"*hazelcast.test.myqueue":
...
com.hazelcast.*.myqueue:
...
