//somewhere in your init script/class
const dockerconfig = require("dockerconfig");
//myConfigData = { port: 1234, nested: { something: "no" } };
const myConfigData = require("./config.json");
const config = dockerconfig.getConfig(myConfigData);
config.makeGlobal();
//somewhere else
console.log(CONFIG.port);
console.log(CONFIG.nested.something);
//your dockerfile
FROM node:6-onbuild
# building & run docker image
# with environment variables to overwrite config data
docker build -t my-config-test .
docker run -e NODE_CONFIG_PORT=5555 -e NODE_CONFIG_NESTED_SOMETHING=yes my-config-test
# outputs:
# 555 instead of 1234
# "yes" instead of "no"
Versioning helps you to keep application-image and deployment-configuration (via environment-variables) in sync, since it's not always possible to keep all config-changes backwards-compatible or provide sane defaults.
In your application/image add a key configVersion to your config.json (or rather: config-object). The configVersion must be a number, using timestamps is recommended:
{
"configVersion": 1464091200
}
Next add the environment variable NODE_CONFIG_CONFIGVERSION with the very same value when running your container:
$ docker run -e NODE_CONFIG_CONFIGVERSION=1464091200 my-application
Now dockerconfig.getConfig()
will throw an exception on version-mismatch.
