What is this package for

When you deploy your project using docker image and put some config through data-volume contents inside configuration directory is removed.
the major problem is it remove default configuration also.

How to use

installation

npm install config-extra --save

usage

// it is optional but must called before require('config-extra'), unless default is cwd()
process.env.CONFIG_DEFAULT_PATH = process.cwd() + '/default'
  
// load configuration
const config = require('config-extra');
const some_value = config.get('some.value');

details

Basically there should be no difference with config package

see: config

Additional environment variable

• CONFIG_DEFAULT_PATH : The directory where the default.yaml file is located
  • default: CWD (usually root of npm project)

Known Issues, Limitation

Currently it supports .yaml file only
