This is the default configuration package of xerxes.

It selects the correct values depending on the currently active environment.

Install

npm install --save xx-configuration

Note This is a core package of xerxes, so you usually don't have to install it

Usage

Put your configuration files into your app's configuration directory. Configuration files must end with .config.js, otherwise they will be ignored.

For example you have the following in app/configuration/database.config.js

exports = module.exports = {
  default: {
    key: "value"
  },

  production: {
    key: "something else"
  }
};

Load the configurations in your app.js file

App.load("configuration/load");

Now App.configuration.database.key will be something else when NODE_ENV is production, and value in every other environment

Generate example configuration file

xerxes generate configuration example

This will create a configuration folder in your app's directory if it not exists and put in an example configuration file.

Tests

In order to run the tests, lib/xx-configuration must be renamed to node_modules/xx-configuration
