oneconf v1.0.6

oneconf

Easily define and load environment variables via a simple type declaration.

The package uses dotenv to load environment variables from the .env file as well.

Installation

npm i --save oneconf

Usage

The package provides a single function which loads in environment variables based on the Config type declared in the file located at path.

function loadConfig<T>(path: string, dotEnvConfig?: dotenv.DotenvConfigOptions): T;

// config.ts
export type Config = {
    production: boolean;
    redis: {
        hostName: string;
        port: number;
    },
    appBaseUrl: string;
}

// .env
PRODUCTION=false
REDIS.HOST_NAME=redis://localhost
REDIS.PORT=6379
APP_BASE_URL=http://localhost:3000

// index.ts
import {loadConfig} from "oneconf";
import {Config} from "./path/to/config"

const config = loadConfig<Config>('./path/to/config.ts')

Which yields the following config object:

const config: Config = {
    production: false,
    redis: {
        hostName: 'redis://localhost',
        port: 6379,
    },
    appBaseUrl: 'http://localhost:3000'
}

Available types for config keys are string, boolean, and number currently.

CLI

There is also a simple tool provided which will spit out a .env file containing the necessary keys:

npx oneconf-init ./path/to/config.ts
