Property name

vitro.local.solr.url

Description

URL of Solr context used in local VIVO search. Should consist of:

Pre
scheme + servername + port + vivo_webapp_name + "solr"

In the standard installation, the Solr context will be on the same server as VIVO, and in the same Tomcat instance. The path will be the VIVO webapp.name (specified above) + "solr"

Default valueNONE
Example valuehttp://localhost:8080/vivosolr

Extended properties

These are properties that many sites will not need to modify.

Property name

homePage.geoFocusMaps

DescriptionOn the VIVO home page, display a global map highlighting the geographical focus of foaf:person individuals.
Default valueenabled
Example valuedisabled
Property name

multiViews.profilePageTypes

DescriptionMultiViews for foaf:person profile pages. VIVO supports the simultaneous use of a full foaf:Person profile page view and a "quick" page view that emphasizes the individual's own webpage presence. Implementing this feature requires an installation to develop a web service that captures images of web pages or to use an existing service outside of VIVO, usually for a small fee.
Default valuedisabled
Example valueenabled
Property name

http.createCacheHeaders

DescriptionTell VIVO to generate HTTP headers on its responses to facilitate caching the profile pages that it creates. This can improve performance, but it can also result in serving stale data. The default is false. For more information, see the VIVO wiki page: Use HTTP caching to improve performance
Default valuefalse
Example valuetrue
Property name

harvester.location

DescriptionIf you intend to run the VIVO Harvester utility from the VIVO ingest menu, you must tell VIVO how to find the Harvester code. An absolute file path, pointing to the root directory of the Harvester installation. You must include the final slash.
Default valueNONE
Example value/usr/local/vivo/harvester/
Property name

visualization.topLevelOrg

DescriptionThe temporal graph visualization is used to compare different organizations/people within an organization on parameters like number of publications or grants. By default, the app will guess at the top level organization in your instance. If you're unhappy with this selection, set the value of the property to the URI of the organization individual you want to identify as the top level organization. It will be used as the default whenever the temporal graph visualization is rendered without being passed an explicit org. For example, to use "Ponce School of Medicine" as the top organization:
visualization.topLevelOrg = http://vivo.psm.edu/individual/n2862
Default valueVIVO will infer the top level organization in your instance.
Example valuehttp://vivo.psm.edu/individual/n2862
Property name

visualization.temporal

DescriptionThe temporal graph visualization can require extensive machine resources. This can have a particularly noticable impact on memory usage if
  • The organization tree is deep,
  • The number of grants and publications is large.
VIVO V1.4 (and later) mitigates this problem by the way of a caching mechanism and hence we can safely set this to be enabled by default. 
Default valueenabled
Example valueenabled
Property name

proxy.eligibleTypeList

Description Types of individual for which we can create proxy editors. If this is omitted, defaults to http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#Thing
Default valueNONE
Example valuehttp://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/Person, http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/Organization

Additional properties

The runtime.properties file can accept many additional properties, but most of them don't apply to the standard they aren't necessary for this simple installation. If you choose any of the Installation options, you may will likely need to set some of those properties.
