Node.js dynamic settings

Thu, 25 Aug 2016 19:43:31 +0000

As I’m relatively new to Node I had to wrap my head around a very basic thing. Getting external variables into my app. Loading settings for different environments from config files and via environment variables (for heroku deployment) should supposedly be an easy challenge. However, none of the solutions I’ve found were well enough for my scenario:

Store config in json file.
Have different configuration files (development, production, …).
Load configs from environment variables.
Fallback from environment to config file.
App lives in one folder.

In web development there are tons of programs and tools and due to that also complex and very different development strategies. Luckily dependency handling got a lot easier. For my Laravel project setup we will use 3 different package managers. Every package manager of course manages a different resource, we will use composer for php packages, npm for everything related to Node.js and Bower for web packages.

How to debug your Node.js application

Recently I’ve started developing with Node.js. As a beginner I had to set up an IDE which meets my requirements such as debugging code. I’ve tried several IDE’s such as Microsofts’s WebMatrix or Eclipse Node.js extension. But all of them literally sucked, they were are a pain to install or didn’t work properly.

Luckily I came along this project: https://github.com/node-inspector/node-inspector
