docker-config-loader

A extremely basic module to load a different config based on the environment.

Docs

Base Usage:

var loader = require('docker-config-loader');
var config;
try {
    config = loader({secretName:'prod_config.json',localPath:'./local_config.json'})
} catch(e) {
    //An Error occured, maybe the config was not found or could not be required.
}

If a environment var with the name set in secretName exists, the loader prefers it over the local path and tries to load it from /run/secrets/secretName

Local Loading

The Path is relative to node_modules. For Example: if you got a project structure as follows:

- node_modules
- config.json
- src
    - index.js

The loader will use the root path of the project, so if you want to require the config.json you would have to set the following options:

loader({secretName:'prod_config.json',localPath:'./config.json'})

I hope this module is a nice utility for very basic needs like mine.
