title: Having configuration files outside jar file in Spring Boot
body: <p>I have a Spring boot camel application whose directory structure is like this</p>
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/f1LB6.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/f1LB6.png" alt="enter image description here" /></a></p>
  <p>I want to convert this project into a jar file. But I want 3 files outside my jar so that I don't need to redeploy my application again and again when the configuration is changed.
  those 3 files are</p>
  <ol>
  <li><p>application.properties</p>
  </li>
  <li><p>CamelContext.xml</p>
  </li>
  <li><p>sql.properties</p>
  <p>I have the flexibility to hardcode the path of the file location. Can anyone help me out how do I achieve this?</p>
  </li>
  </ol>
