check-environment-variables

Check environment variables helps verify variables set by setup files (ex: spec.yaml) and also in the environment itself.

How to use

If you want to check your environment variables you can run: check-variables, when you execute this binary file it will look for a file, on the same level with the name checkVariablesSpec.yaml, and it is going to compare the variables on the process.env and compare against the specification on the file.

See this example file:

checkVariables:
  START_SERVER: # required boolean variable (true or false)
    type: boolean
    required: true
  REQUEST_TIMEOUT: number # not require number
  API_HOST: url # not required url
  FROM_EMAIL: email # not required url
  NAMESPACE: string # not required string
  ENDPOINT: true # required variable to have on process.env
  AWS_REGION: # the variable value should be one of the possibleValues
    type: enum
    possibleValues:
      - us-east-2
      - us-east-1
      - us-west-1
      - us-west-2
  MY_OTHER_VARIABLE: # an string, starting with maria, with length from 7 to 20
    type: string
    required: true
    minLength: 7
    maxLength: 20
    regex: ^maria

If you run check-variables against this file it is going to check the varaibles START_SERVER, REQUEST_TIMEOUT, API_HOST, FROM_EMAIL, NAMESPACE, ENDPOINT, AWS_REGION, MY_OTHER_VARIABLE on your process.env

Options of check-variables:

# default value for yamlFile is "checkVariablesSpec.yaml"
Usage: check-variables [options] [yamlFile]

Options:
  -V, --version                output the version number
  -b, --bail                   Indicates whether or not the proccess exits with status non ok when oneor more variables are wrong
  -f, --formatter [formatter]  The formatter of output: json, inline, pretty (default: "pretty")
  -h, --help                   output usage information

In order to check variables in a spec file, you need to run: validate-spec-yaml [MY_SPEC_FILE_PATH]

The comparison will occur according to the templates files in /templates.

Using programatically

const checkVariables = require('check-variables');

const myVariables = {
  myServerShouldStart: process.env.START_SERVER,
  region: process.env.REGION
}

// follow the same specification of "checkVariablesSpec.yaml" file
const mySpecification = {
  myServerShouldStart: 'boolean',
  region: {
    type: 'enum',
    possibleValues: ['north', 'south']
  }
}
const result = checkVariables(myVariables, mySpecification) // as the first parameter you can also use process.env
result.assertVariablesAreOK() // throws an AssertionError if something is not right
result.success // false when the specification is not valid, true when validation happened
result.messages // when at least one of the specification are invalid you can see what is invalid
result.hasErrors  // false when all variables respects the rules in specification
result.variables // an array, items has the fields: 'variable' -> name of the variable, 'value' -> the value of variable, 'error' -> null if the value of the variable is ok against the rule, string containing the error if not ok
