@fastify/env
Fastify plugin to check environment variables
Install
npm i @fastify/env
Usage
const fastify = require('fastify')()
const fastifyEnv = require('@fastify/env')
const schema = {
type: 'object',
required: [ 'PORT' ],
properties: {
PORT: {
type: 'string',
default: 3000
}
}
}
const options = {
confKey: 'config', // optional, default: 'config'
schema: schema,
data: data // optional, default: process.env
}
fastify
.register(fastifyEnv, options)
.ready((err) => {
if (err) console.error(err)
console.log(fastify.config) // or fastify[options.confKey]
// output: { PORT: 3000 }
})This module is a wrapper around env-schema.
To read an .env file you must set dotenv in the options:
const options = {
dotenv: true // will read .env in root folder
}
// or, pass config options avalible on dotenv module
const options = {
dotenv: {
path: `${__dirname}/.env`,
debug: true
}
}Using @fastify/env to configure other plugins
The @fastify/env plugin loads asynchronously. If you wish to use its values in a different plugin before the boot sequence, you need to make sure that:
@fastify/envis registered first.- Await the plugin registration or await after()
await fastify.register(fastifyEnv)
// fastify.config can be used in hereOR
fastify.register(fastifyEnv)
await fastify
// fastify.config can be used in hereNB Support for additional properties in the schema is disabled for this plugin, with the additionalProperties flag set to false internally.
Typescript
In order to have typing for the fastify instance, you should follow the example below:
declare module 'fastify' {
interface FastifyInstance {
config: { // this should be same as the confKey in options
// specify your typing here
};
}
