Simple Node Config
This light-weight NodeJS package allows you to load your config files, as well as easily edit them with getters and setters. The files have to be in JSON format.
##Examples
###Loading Config Files
Store the super-config
class in a variable and load as many configuration files as you have.
var config = require('super-config');
config.loadConfig([
__dirname + '/app/config/config',
__dirname + '/app/config/local'
]);
It's that simple.
Example config file
module.exports = {
database: {
host:'127.0.0.1',
port:'27017',
dbname:'example_DB'
},
someOtherSetting: 1234,
name: 'myname'
}
###Getting Information Let's pretend our config file contains this section of code:
database: {
host:'127.0.0.1',
port:'27017',
dbname:'example_DB'
}
It would pretty nice if we could easily retrieve that information right? Here's how-to:
var host = config.get('database.host', '');
var port = config.get('database.port', '');
var dbName = config.get('database.dbname', '');
It's that simple.
###Setting Information Need to set some information in the config object? Not a problem:
config.set('database.host', 'mydbserver');
Simple Config, it's THAT simple.
