Author message:

Use ts-json-properties instead of

json-properties

Use typescript decorator to retrieve a property from properties.json and load it on class attribute.

Features

• @Value(expression) : resolve expression and values the attribute (decorator).
• Properties.getValue : resolve expression and values the attribute (programmatic).

Installation

$ npm install -g typings 
$ npm install json-properties

Example

In first place, you need to create a `properties.json in your project's root and write some data like this :

{
 "product":"MP",
  "myOwnData":{
    "data1":1
  }
}

You can separate your json in multiple json file with the attribute propertiesFile. Just adding this code on your properties.json :

{
 "product":"MP",
  "myOwnData":{
    "data1":1
  },
  "propertiesFiles":{
    "cwd":"./properties",
    "files":{
      "documents": "documents.json",
      "wsdl": "wsdl.json"
    }
  }
}

In this case, when Properties load your properties file in memory, it'll provide a JSON like this :

{
 "product":"MP",
  "myOwnData":{
    "data1":1
  },
 
  "documents": {
    "doc1": "/directory/docs/file.pdf"
  },
  
  "wsdl": {
    "wsdl1": "..."
  }
 
}

Next step, You must initialize Properties in your app.js. Just add this code for that :

import {Properties} from 'json-properties';
 
Properties.initialize(); //Import automatically properties.json 
 
//or load it from another path
 
Properties.initialize('path/to/properties.json'); 
 

And finally, you use the decorator to values attributes on your class.

import {Value, Properties} from 'json-properties';
 
export class Foo{
    
    @Value('documents.doc1')
    private documents1:string; 
    
    constructor(){
    
        console.log('Doc =>', this.documents1); // Doc => /directory/docs/file.pdf
        
        //or with Properties Api
        
        console.log('wsdl', Properties.getValue('wsdl')); // wsdl => {"wsdl1":"..."}
    }
}

Note : All properties returned by @Value or Properties.getValue are immutable.

Test

$ npm install -g mocha
$ npm test
