nconf-base v0.3.16
nconf-base
A basic nconf chain to assist in boilerplate application configuration and encourage keeping security sensitive information out of source code and VCS repos.
Configuration information is pulled from the following locations in the following order. Duplicate values are ignored if they are encountered further down the list:
- environment variables
- command line arguments (if not production)
- package.json file
- defaults as follows:
- port: (isLocal) ? 3000 : 80
- https_port: (isLocal) ? 3443 : 443
- powered_by: nconf.get('name') + '/' + nconf.get('version')
- winston console logs for: access, application, email and slow events
Installation
$ npm install nconf-base
Usage
var nconf = require('nconf-base'); // get configuration
And use nconf as you would regularly.
Example with winston logger via winston-config
var nconf = require('nconf-base'),
wconf = require('winston-config').fromJson(nconf.get('winston-config')),
logger = wconf.logger.application;
logger.info('it works :-)'); // console output: it works :-)
