proxy-config

use es6 proxies to read and write config files

How?

To Install?

Well that's easy - just npm install proxy-config

To Use?

Note: You need a version of node that supports proxies! See node.green

Example:

let proxyConfig = require('proxy-config');

# Create a proxy
let myConfigProxy = proxyConfig("config.json");

# access properties
let value = myConfigProxy.value;
myConfigProxy.value2 = "value2";

Values will be read from config when they are accessed and stored to config when they are set.

See more in the tests.

To Optimize?

If you're using this in production, you probably don't want to hit the disk to get all your config options. To preload all values in config into the cache at construction, pass true as the second argument:

let proxyConfig = require('proxy-config');

# Create a proxy
let conf = proxyConfig("config.json", true); # hits disk

# cache is populated
let value1 = conf.value1; # doesn't hit disk
let value2 = conf.value2; # doesn't hit disk
conf.value3 = "value3"; # hits disk
