TypedConf - Your config, perfectly typed

Fully Typed Configuration for your Typescript project.

Just access your configuration keys like you would any other object in your code, typechecking included!

Hello :

const db  = cfg.easy.key.access.db; //{host:string..}
const maybe = cfg.safe.undefined?.access // string | undefined

Goodbye :

const dbHost : string = cfg.get("key.which.might.have.been.renamed.host")
const dbPort : number = cfg.get("key.which.might.have.been.renamed.port")
const dbDatabase : string = cfg.get("key.which.might.have.been.renamed.db")
const dbSchema : string = cfg.get("key.which.might.have.been.renamed.schema")
const key : number = cfg.get("key.uuuh.....")
const other : string = cfg.get("key.oh.no.typo")

Result:

✔️ Always know all keys which are safe to access
✔️ Always know when a key has been removed or renamed
✔️ Always know what config keys exist

Getting Started

npm install typedconf

Example

import { ConfigBuilder } from 'typedconf';

interface ConfigSchema {
  database: {
    host: string;
    port: number;
    schemas: string[];
    enabled: boolean;
  };
  api: {
    host: string;
    port: number;
  };
}

export const cfg = new ConfigBuilder<ConfigSchema>()
  // Apply a default config
  .applyStaticConfig({
    database: {
      host: 'localhost',
      port: 5432,
      schemas: ['public'],
      enabled: true,
    },
  })
  // Load environment variables
  .loadEnv(env, 'MY_APP_', '_')
  .buildConfig();

// Now our typechecker knows all fields that might be undefined and ensures that they are handled properly.
cfg.database.host; // defined
cfg.api?.port; // possibly undefined

// We can use the `require` method to ensure that required fields are defined and throw an error if they are not.
const checkedcfg = cfg.require({
  api: {
    port: true,
    host: true,
  },
});

checkedcfg.api.port; // now defined

// Even dynamic config access is typechecked
cfg.get('database.enabled'); // Defined Boolean

//cfg.get('database.something'); // Type Error - "database.something" does not extend config type.
cfg.get<bool>('database.something', true); // bool | undefined - Allows accessing paths dynamically in e.g. functions
