@scolastico-dev/env-helper

@scolastico-dev/env-helper is a TypeScript library that simplifies working with environment variables. It provides an intuitive API to validate, parse, and define default values for environment variables. The library is especially useful in Node.js projects that rely on configuration management.

Installation

Install the library using npm:

npm install @scolastico-dev/env-helper

Usage

Example: Configuration Service

The library can be used to create configuration services that provide environment variables with type safety and default values. Here's an example:

import { Injectable } from '@nestjs/common';
import { $bool, $str } from '@scolastico-dev/env-helper';

@Injectable()
export class CfgService {
  /** @hidden */
  constructor() {}

  /**
   * Indicates whether Redis should be used for caching.
   * @example REDIS_ENABLED=true
   * @default false
   */
  readonly redisEnabled = $bool('REDIS_ENABLED', false);

  /**
   * The Redis connection URL.
   * @example REDIS_URL=redis://localhost:6379
   * @default redis://localhost:6379
   */
  readonly redisUrl = $str('REDIS_URL', 'redis://localhost:6379');
}
