@component-tree/config

A lightweight configuration loader

Overview

Easily and uniformly access environment, command line or JSON variables throughout your application.

The JSON configuration is loaded from the path set by CONFIG_FILE environment variable. The default location, if CONFIG_FILE is not set, will be conf/default.json

Ideally in a production envionment you would provide a path like /etc/your-app/config.json.

Configuration file is optional

If there is no config file found, you can still access your environment and command-line variables.

Install

npm install i -S @component-tree/config

Test

npm test

Example default.json

{
  "app": "Super Deluxe App",

    "host": "127.0.0.1",
    "port": 6379,
  },
  "something": {
    "nested": "this-way-comes"
  }
}

const config = require('@component-tree/config');

const redisSettings = config.get('redis');
const redis = new Redis(redisSettings);
