A Fastify plugin that defines an opinionated config for an API.
When registered on a Fastify instance, the plugin will:
- decorate the Fastify instance with the
config
object, available with theconfig
attribute. - decorate all requests with the
config
object, available with theconfig
attribute; this can be used to construct abuildContext
for mercurius resolvers, for example. - decorate the Fastfy instance with a
hostname
attribute.
In a simple repo:
npm install @dzangolab/fastify-config
If using in a monorepo with pnpm:
pnpm add --filter "myrepo" @dzangolab/fastify-config
Somewhere in your code, create a config.ts
file that looks like this:
import { parse } from "@dzangolab/fastify-config";
import dotenv from "dotenv";
import type { ApiConfig } from "@dzangolab/fastify-config";
dotenv.config();
const config: ApiConfig = {
appName: process.env.APP_NAME as string,
appOrigin: (process.env.APP_ORIGIN as string).split(","),
baseUrl: process.env.BASE_URL as string,
env: parse(process.env.NODE_ENV, "development") as string,
logger: {
level: parse(process.env.LOG_LEVEL, "error") as string,
},
name: process.env.NAME as string,
pagination: {
default_limit: parse(process.env.PAGINATION_DEFAULT_LIMIT, 25) as number,
max_limit: parse(process.env.PAGINATION_MAX_LIMIT, 50) as number,
},
port: parse(process.env.PORT, 20040) as number,
protocol: parse(process.env.PROTOCOL, "http") as string,
rest: {
enabled: parse(process.env.REST_ENABLED, true) as boolean,
},
version: `${process.env.npm_package_version || process.env.API_VERSION}+${process.env.API_BUILD || "local"}` as string,
};
export default config;
Register the plugin with your Fastify instance:
import configPlugin from "@dzangolab/fastify-config";
import fastify from "fastify";
import config from "./config";
import type { ApiConfig } from "@dzangolab/fastify-config";
import type { FastifyInstance } from "fastify";
// Create fastify instance
const fastify = Fastify({
logger: config.logger,
});
// Register fastify-config plugin
fastify.register(configPlugin, { config });
await fastify.listen({
port: config.port,
host: "0.0.0.0",
});
