Package Exports

ycb
ycb/index.js

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 (ycb) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Yahoo! Configuration Bundle

YCB is a multi-dimensional configuration library that builds bundles from resource files describing a variety of values. The library allows applications to configure themselves based on multiple dimensions describing locations, languages, environments, etc.

Install

npm install ycb --save

Usage

import YCB from 'ycb';
const configArray = [
    {
        dimensions: [
            {
                environment: {
                    dev: null,
                    staging: null,
                    test: null,
                    prod: null,
                },
            },
            {
                device: {
                    desktop: null,
                    mobile: {
                        tablet: null,
                        smartphone: null,
                    },
                },
            },
        ],
    },
    {
        settings: ['main'],
        host: 'example.com',
        prefix: null,
    },
    {
        settings: ['environment:dev'],
        host: 'dev.example.com',
    },
    {
        settings: ['environment:staging,test'],
        host: 'stage.example.com',
    },
    {
        settings: ['device:smartphone'],
        prefix: 'm.',
    },
];

const ycbObj = new YCB.Ycb(configArray);
const computedConfig = ycbObj.read({ environment: 'dev' });

console.log(computedConfig.host); // dev.example.com

Scheduling Changes

We can schedule configuration changes ahead of time by defining an interval along with a config and using the time aware read method. For example the following program.

import YCB from 'ycb';
const configArray = [
    {
        dimensions: [
            {
                environment: {
                    dev: null,
                    staging: null,
                    test: null,
                    prod: null,
                },
            },
            {
                region: {
                    us: null,
                    ca: null,
                },
            },
        ],
    },
    {
        settings: ['main'],
        host: 'example.com',
    },
    {
        settings: {
            dimensions: ['region:us'],
        },
        logo: 'logo.png',
    },
    {
        settings: {
            dimensions: ['region:us'],
            schedule: {
                start: '2019-11-28T00:04:00Z',
                end: '2019-11-29T00:04:00Z',
            },
        },
        logo: 'thanksgiving-logo.png',
    },
];

const ycbObj = new YCB.Ycb(configArray, { cacheInfo: true });
const config1 = ycbObj.readTimeAware({ region: 'us' }, 0);
const config2 = ycbObj.readTimeAware({ region: 'us' }, 1574899440000);
const config3 = ycbObj.readTimeAware({ region: 'us' }, 1574985840001);
console.log(config1);
console.log(config2);
console.log(config3);

will print

{ host: 'example.com',
  logo: 'logo.png',
  __ycb_expires_at__: 1574899440000 }
{ host: 'example.com',
  logo: 'thanksgiving-logo.png',
  __ycb_expires_at__: 1574985840001 }
{ host: 'example.com', logo: 'logo.png' }

These intervals are closed and either start or end may be omitted to define a one sided interval.

To support proper cache expiration one may set the cacheInfo option, in which case the next time the config will change is added to the returned object.
