Configify

Overview

Configify is a powerful configuration module for NestJS that simplifies the handling of configuration files and secrets. It allows developers to seamlessly integrate various configuration sources into their applications, ensuring that all necessary parameters can be managed efficiently. This module is designed to enhance the robustness of your application by providing a clear structure for configuration management, leading to improved maintainability and security.

By leveraging Configify, developers can easily define default values, map configuration files to classes, and handle secrets from multiple sources—all while ensuring that the application remains flexible and adaptable to different environment setups.

Features

• Easy Installation: Quickly import the module using the forRootAsync() function to start utilizing Configify in your NestJS application.

• Supports Multiple Configuration Files: Automatically looks for default configuration files (.env, application.yml, application.json) at the root of the project and allows for custom file paths.

• Global Configuration Accessibility: Maps configuration classes decorated with @Configuration globally available within the application, simplifying dependency injection.

• Variable Expansion: Allows for variable expansion in configuration files, enabling dynamic configuration based on other variables.

• Secret Management: Out of the box, it resolves secrets from various platforms, including AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, providing flexibility in managing sensitive information.

• Default Values: Define default attribute values using the @Value() decorator, ensuring that your configurations are robust even if not explicitly defined.

• Validation Support: Validate configuration classes pre-execution with class-validator to ensure that critical configurations are correctly loaded.
