ConfigLoader | SignalWire

ConfigLoader loads JSON configuration files and substitutes environment variables using ${VAR|default} syntax. It provides dot-notation access for nested values and supports method chaining.

1 import { ConfigLoader } from '@signalwire/sdk';
2 
3 const config = new ConfigLoader('./config.json');
4 const port = config.get<number>('server.port', 3000);

Constructor

filePaths

string | string[]

Path(s) to a JSON config file to load on construction. A single string is loaded directly; an array is searched in order and the first existing file is loaded (mirroring the Python SDK’s ordered-search behaviour). If no file in the array exists, the paths are recorded but no error is thrown. If omitted, use load() or loadFromObject() later.

Properties

configPaths

string[]

The ordered list of config file paths passed to the constructor or searched during loading. Returns a defensive copy.

Methods

load

Load configuration from a JSON file with env var interpolation.

Static method to find and load a config file from standard locations.

get

Get a value by dot-notation path.

set

Set a value at a dot-notation path.

has

Check whether a dot-notation path exists.

getAll

Return a shallow copy of the entire configuration object.

getFilePath

Return the absolute path of the loaded config file.

loadFromObject

Load configuration from a plain object instead of a file.

findConfigFile

Find a config file without loading it (static).

getConfig

Return the full config (Python-compat alias for getAll).

getConfigFile

Return the loaded file path (Python-compat alias for getFilePath).

hasConfig

Check whether any configuration data is loaded.

getSection

Get a top-level section with env-var substitution.

substituteVars

Recursively substitute ${VAR} references with coercion.

mergeWithEnv

Merge config with prefixed environment variables.

interpolateEnvVars

Interpolate ${VAR} in a raw string without coercion.

Example

1 import { ConfigLoader } from '@signalwire/sdk';
2 
3 // Load from a specific file
4 const config = new ConfigLoader('./config.json');
5 console.log('File:', config.getFilePath());
6 
7 const port = config.get<number>('server.port', 3000);
8 const host = config.get<string>('server.host', '0.0.0.0');
9 console.log(`Listening on ${host}:${port}`);
