The following servlet init parameters are used to configure the Oort instance:

  • oort.url, the absolute public URL to the CometD servlet
  • oort.secret, the pre-shared secret that Oort servers use to authenticate connections from other Oort comets
  • oort.channels, a comma separated list of channels that will be passed to Oort.observeChannel(String)
  • clientDebug, a boolean that enables debugging of the clients connected to other oort cluster managers

Override method newOort(BayeuxServer, String) to return a customized instance of Oort.
