Package Exports

isomorphic-config

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (isomorphic-config) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Isomorphic Config

A configuration manager for isomorphic applications

installation

npm install --save isomorphic-config

Usage

From server

Just import and use it, isomorphic-config will make use of server side capabilities to read a configuration file and retrieve the configurations in it.

const isomorphicConfig = require("isomorphic-config");
const config = isomorphicConfig.server;
const express =  require("express");

let server = express();
server.listen(config.port, (err) => {
    if (err) {
        throw new Error(err);
    } else {
        console.info('Listening at http://localhost: ', config.port);
    }
});

From client

In order to use the config in a client app, you would need to expose it in a global variable ("CONFIG") from the server initial render. Isomorphic-config will detect it and retrieve it (see the "Hello" example)

// server initial render (server.js)
const isomorphicConfig = require("isomorphic-config");
const clientConfig = isomorphicConfig.client;
const serverConfig = isomorphicConfig.server;

const express = require('express');
const server = express();
const hello = require("./Hello.js");

server.get('/', function (req, res) {
    res.send(
        `<!DOCTYPE html>
        <html lang="en">
           <head>
                <title>Hello Isomorphic Config</title>
                <script charSet="UTF-8">var CONFIG=${JSON.stringify(clientConfig)}</script>
           </head>
           <body>
               ${hello}
           </body>
        </html>`
    );
});
server.listen(serverConfig.port, function () {
    console.log(`Example app listening on port ${serverConfig.port}!`);
});

// Hello component (Hello.js):
const isomorphicConfig = require("isomorphic-config");
const config = isomorphicConfig.client;
const hello = `<div class="greeting">${config.greeting}</div>`
module.exports = hello;
