Quick start

Installing

Standalone:

$ npm install spur-config --save

With dependency injection:

$ npm install spur-ioc --save
$ npm install spur-common --save
$ npm install spur-config --save

Usage

Supports active Node versions in the LTS Schedule. (view current versions)

Configuration files

src/config/default.js

module.exports = function () {

  return this.properties({
    environment: 'default',
    port: 8080
  });

}

src/config/shared-deployed.js

module.exports = function () {

  return this.properties({
    shared: {
      someProp: 123
    }
  });

}

src/config/development.js (default)

module.exports = function () {

  this.extends('default');

  return this.properties({
    environment: 'default'
  });

}

src/config/production.js

module.exports = function () {

  // Extend multiple files
  this.extends('default', 'shared-deployed');

  return this.properties({
    environment: 'production',
    port: process.env.PORT or 9000
  });

}

Standalone use

This example shows how to manually load configuration into

const spurConfig = require('spur-config');

const configDirectory = path.join(__dirname, 'src/config');

// load specific environment file
const config = SpurConfig.load(configDirectory, 'production');

// loads configuration specified in NODE_ENV environment variable
const config = SpurConfig.load(configDirectory);

With spur-ioc auto-registration

This example loads the configuration into an injector/module and makes it available as the config dependency.

src/injector.js

const spur = require('spur-ioc');
const spurConfig = require('spur-config');
const registerConfig = require('spur-common/registerConfig');

module.exports = function () {

  const ioc = spur.create('test-application');
  const configDirectory = path.join(__dirname, './config');

  registerConfig(ioc, configDirectory);

  return ioc;
}

src/services/TestConfig.js

module.exports = function (config) {

  console.log(config);

}

The majority of the settings are controlled using an EditorConfig configuration file. To use it please download a plugin for your editor of choice.

In addition we use ESLint to enforce some of the JavaScript rules. To enable on your editor, please install one of the editor plugins.
