Atmosphere

Node.js Environment Variable Management

Why should I use this?

• prevents writing "process.env" everywhere in your project's code.
• increases testability because you can mock different environments (due to above)

How to Use

1) Install via NPM

$ npm install atmosphere

2) Initialize

// process.env can be substituted for any object
var atmo = require('atmosphere)(process.env);

3) Get Variables

// Access Environment Variables
atmo.get('port'); // 3000

Upcoming

• Environment Variable Prefix (MYAPP_PORT -> PORT)
• Auto-capitalization (port -> PORT)
• Replacing spaces with underscores
• Converting the return value to another type ('3000' -> 3000)
