Avoid storing config settings in repository

We do use a git repository for our worker role, we commit the entire solution to keep track of changes to ServiceConfiguration too.
We would like to avoid storing sensitive info in the repository and I wonder if something similar to WebSites App Settings in web portal is available for Cloud Service too.
I did try to set just the local value for my settings (ServiceConfiguration.Local.cscfg, leaving
ServiceConfiguration.Cloud.cscfg blank) and then set the correct value in web portal config tab for the worker role (so to have localhost in the cscfg files that goes into
the repository and the correct connection string just in the web portal). This work fine until we redeploy the role, doing so the settings in the web portal resets back to ServiceConfiguration.Cloud.cscfg
(blank, no values).
Not committing ServiceConfiguration.Cloud.cscfg
is not an option as we'd prefer not to have the real connection strings nor in the repository nor in our local PCs.
Any suggestions?

Hi sir,
Currently, we could got the "Role Settings" from the Azure portal,Configure all the required settings specified in the ConfigurationSettings element of the service configuration file (.cscfg). Example: Add the thumbprint of the certificate
used for SSL communications. The thumbprint must be associated with a new certificate that was uploaded on the Certificates page.
But we could not set the settings on the Azure cloud service portal currently. You could submit a feature request about this feature via the page (http://www.mygreatwindowsazureidea.com/forums/34192-windows-azure-feature-voting). Also,
Alternative approach is that you could write some information into web.config. Your project could get the configuration values via the code below:
ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["stroageaccount"].ToString();
Also, you can encrypt the configurations, please see this code sample(https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsazure/Encrypt-Configuration-5a8e8dfe ).
Regards,
Will

  • When closing Firefox windows, I would like a warning before the last window closes. The about:config settings do nothing. There is a warning for multiple tabs..

    When closing Firefox windows, I would like a warning before the last window closes. The about:config settings do nothing. There is a warning for multiple tabs... why not for the last window? I do not use tabs... just windows... I have a mouse button programmed for that. It is really irritating to have to restart Firefox all the time and then open the history window because no warning was issued!

    This is ridiculous. I've had this problems for years now and I'm finally walking away from Firefox. I use my keyboards more than my mouse, and how many times does your finger slip and hit Command Q instead of W. How come FF can't reset something as trivial as this? So many people are having problems with this?
    Feels like FF has become too big, too slow and just not cooperative anymore. What a shame, I've been using Netscape/Firefox for 13 years. This is silly.

  • Config settings for making Inbound delivery instead of TR

    Hi,
    Scenario- Plant to plant stock transfer from Non WM plant to WM enabled Plant. Material document is posted and quant lies in st type 920.
    In the current system settings it creates TR automatically (Path - WM-interfaces-IM-define MVT - LE WM interface to IM - field Create TR)
    Question - Instead of system creating TR, I want Inbound dely to be created. What are the config settings to be done?
    Regards.

    First, you need to work against Stock Transfer Purchase Orders with confirmation control 0004 - Inbound delivery for every item in the STO.
    So the process steps are:
    1. Create STO for plant to plant with confirmation control 0004 at item level (assuming that relevant configuration is available in MM-Purchasing)
    2. Create outbound delivery from issuing plant and issue the goods.
    3. Create Inbound delivery using transaction VL31N (you can automate this if you have SAP ECC 6.0)

  • Config Settings - ProductPreviewSize & ProductThumbSize

    I know that in the Config Settings I can set the ProductPreviewSize and ProductThumbSize for some of the different pages, but I have two questions about these properties.
    1)  What if I want to have different image sizes on my productdetail and picturebrowser pages?
    2)  Are these writeable properties that I can change on the fly?  If that is the case, I can just change it on the fly to fix problem 1.  Would that also let me dynamically change the size of the image based on the user's screen resolution?
    Thanks,
    Derek

    I forgot that you can also put a div around the image on the product detail page and then use div img to scale the images on a creen size basis.

  • Migrate about:config settings from 3.6 to 4.0

    Over time, I have incorporated many changes and enhancements to Firefox 3.6, in the about:config settings. Many of these are timing changes or speedups of basic settings recommended by users and others intent on making things faster.
    Will it be at all possible to move this over to 4.0, or is that pretty much a "start over" kind of project?

    Put those prefs into a '''user.js''' file, to make them more "portable". That makes it a lot easier when you need to ''(or want to)'' create a new Profile with all your special Firefox about:config change.
    To get started creating a new user.js file you can open your '''prefs.js''' file in a simple text editor program ''(one that won't change the line formatting appearance)'' and copy the prefs that you changed in about:config into another text window line-by-line. <br />''(Yep, you need to find them line-by-line, they're going to be intermixed with prefs set by extension that you have installed.)'' <br />When you have all those prefs in the 2nd window, you can add the code needed by the user.js that differs from what prefs.js uses - '''user_pref(" ''' & ''' ")''' before and after the actual pref - type it once and copy&paste each of those two line-by-line for each pref line.''<br />
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/User.js_file <br />
    It's a lot of work the first time to get started with a user.js file, but it the long run it's a real time and frustration saver. I have been using the same basic user.js file since 2005, and all I need to do is change the few prefs that might get changed in a new version and also add whatever new prefs that I want to set for the new version, for new added features.
    ''Additional information about using a '''user.js''' file in Firefox:'' <br />
    Firefox looks at the user.js file every time it starts for additions or changes to preferences, and then writes those to the prefs.js file.
    '''user.js''' doesn't exist by default, it has to be created. This extension will create that file automatically upon installation and it provides an editing window for the three "user" files from within Firefox. ''You don't have to dig thru your file system every time you want to do a minor edit.''

  • How can I retain about:config settings when updating firefox?

    Really appreciate all the hard work creating updates but every time I update I lose my about:config settings, especially the browser.tab ones that I rely on. Specifically I use non-default settings on InsertRelatedAfterCurrent and all the warning ones. (I never want to be warned). I also use the Tabs on Bottom plugin which also has to be reinstalled after major updates. I run Firefox on at least 4 separate machines so it is a rather huge headache to have to reconfigure after each update. Is there a way to tell Firefox to update but don't change my settings back to defaults?
    Thanks for a great browser.

    Those settings should not get lost...
    Is it possible you used the Refresh feature? Sometimes after an update installs Firefox displays a message that it is running sluggishly and you can improve performance by restoring some default settings. That runs the Refresh feature, which will default your settings and remove all of your extensions (the ones you installed into Firefox yourself, not ones that were added by other software on your system). The telltale sign is that an Old Firefox Data folder appears on your desktop with your "old" settings folder inside. If you have experienced this repeatedly, there may be several old folders inside. Could that be the explanation?
    You might want to create a backup of your prefs.js file, which stores your modified Firefox preferences, before your next update. You can find that file in your currently active Firefox settings (profile) folder as follows (either):
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
    * (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
    * type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
    In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This should launch a new window listing various files and folders in Windows Explorer.
    Scroll down and make a copy of prefs.js (or it may shows prefs and a file type of JScript) in a safe location such as your documents folder.

  • How could I sync About:Config settings?

    (I'm not very good at English, if you don't understand something of my problem description please tell me).
    I have 2 OS on my PC: Windows 7 and Windows 8 RP (for the time of this question) - I keep Firefox synced between the two with Firefox Sync. Some days ago (at the time of this question) I changed some settings on about:config in 7 and denoted at the next day that these changes were missing on 8. I already know how to move "prefs.js", but I wanted to know if there was any possible way to sync my about:config settings between these 2 and continuosly and keep them synced on the cloud so whenever I make some change it applies for both systems.
    If possibly by Firefox Sync.
    (In other words: Sync "prefs.js" between my 2 OS).

    Only prefs that are white-listed as services.sync.prefs.sync.* prefs with a true value will be synced.
