configyour v0.0.1

configyour

Simple directory and file based configuration using json and yaml

Installation

$ npm install configyour

Usage

configyour will read the directory that you pass it and return an object containing the contents of the .json, .yml, and .yaml files, keyed the by filenames. Then it will go a single level down the directory chain to a directory named the same as process.env.NODE_ENV and override any existing keys with those found in the envrionment-specific directory.

For example:

|- my-app
|- server.js
|- config/
|  |- foo.json
|  |- production/
|  |  |- foo.json
|  |- development/
|  |  |- foo.json
|  |  |- debug.json

If your server.js file had the following line in it:

var config = require('configyour')(__dirname + '/config');

In production, the output would be an object that looked like:

{
  "foo": {
    // content of config/production/foo.json
  }
}

In development, the output would be an object that looked like:

{
  "foo": {
    // content of config/development/foo.json
  },
  "debug": {
    // content of config/development/debug.json
  }
}

And finally, in test, the output would be an object that looked like:

{
  "foo": {
    // content of config/foo.json
  }
}
