nobushi-config v0.8.1

nobushi-config

Configuration control library for PaaS like Heroku or Azure.

Quick start

Install nobushi-config via NPM or YARN.

npm install nobushi-config
# or
yarn add nobuhsi-config

Create an application (app.js):

const nc = require('nobushi-config');

const config = nc(process.env).defaults({
  port: 3000,
  databaseUrl: 'sqlite:database.sqlite',
});

console.log('port:', config.port);
console.log('databaseUrl:', config.databaseUrl);

Run app.js:

$ node app.js
port: 3000
databaseUrl: sqlite:database.sqlite

# Overwrite configurations by environment variables.
$ export PORT='8080'
$ export DATABASE_URL='postgresql://username:password@hostname:5432/db'
$ node app.js
port: 8080
databaseUrl: postgresql://username:password@hostname:5432/db

Usage

Overwrite configurations

const config = nc(arguments...).defaults(defaultConfig);

Can overwrite defaultConfig by nc's arguments. Different naming conventions (such as camelCase, SNAKE_CASE, etc.) are considered the same property. For example, DATABASE_URL, databaseUrl, database.url and database-url are same property.

Support placeholder

The part surrounded by ${} is interpreted as a placeholder and the corresponding configuration value is expanded. The value following : is used as the value when the configuration value does not exist. For example:

const config = nc(process.env).default({
  databaseUrl: 'postgresql://username:${DATABASE_PASSWORD:secret}@localhost:5432/db',
});
