Stok Config provides a method for loading configuration values form environment variables for twelve-factor apps.
const http = require('http')
const loadConfiguration = require('stok-config')
const config = loadConfiguration({
port: {
env: 'PORT',
default: 3000
}
})
const server = http.createServer((request, response) => {
response.end('Hello!')
})
server.listen(config.port)
Loads configuration from environment variables and the .env
file and stores it in a structured object.
config
(Object): A mapping between a structured config object and the associated env vars.
In the following example, web.port
will have the value of the PORT
env var. Similarly, db.host
, db.user
, and db.password
will have the values of the DB_HOST
, DB_USER
, and DB_PASSWORD
env vars, respectively. db.port
will have the value of the DB_PORT
env var, but if the env var doesn't exist, the default value of 3306
will be used.
const config = loadConfiguration({
web: {
port: 'PORT'
},
db: {
host: 'DB_HOST',
port: {
env: 'DB_PORT',
default: 3306
},
user: 'DB_USER',
password: 'DB_PASSWORD'
}
})
