mcms-node-config-loader

Easily load config files for multiple environments

What does it do

This packages allows you to easily load the right config file depending on the environment you're working on

Install

npm install mcms-node-config-loader

Folder structure

The library expects a structure like so :

/configDir
        /devEnv
            configFile.json
        /anotherEnv
            configFile.json
configFile.json
anotherConfigFile.json

Every file under the configDir is loaded as production environment. If you create a subdirectory named after an environment you have defined before calling the module, it will overwrite the default config. For example, you have a mysql.json config under the configDir with your mySQL connection settings. If you create the same file with different settings under the configDir/development directory, when you're working on your dev machine theses settings will be loaded instead

Usage

check the examples folder for usage scenarios Initialize like so :

var path = require("path");
var environments = {
    'development' : ['ubuntu','mike-PC','mint-box'],
    'production' : 'myProductionBox'
};
var configLoader = require("../index").setEnv(environments);
var Config = configLoader.loadConfig(path.join(__dirname,'./config'));

That's it, under the Config object you can now access all your settings
