Use typescript decorator to retrieve a property from properties.json and load it on class attribute.

Features

  • @Value(expression) : resolve expression and values the attribute (decorator).
  • @Constant(expression) : resolve expression and values the attribute but attribut is frozen (decorator).
  • @EnvValue(expression) : resolve expression and values the attribute from process.node.env or from properties if env value doesn't exists (decorator).
  • Properties.get() : resolve expression and values the attribute (programmatic).

Installation

npm install -g typescript
npm install ts-json-properties

Example

In first place, you need to create a `properties.json in your project's root and write some data like this :

{
 "product":"MP",
  "myOwnData":{
    "data1":1
  }
}

You can separate your json in multiple json file with the attribute propertiesFile. Just adding this code on your properties.json :

{
 "product":"MP",
  "myOwnData":{
    "data1":1
  },
  "propertiesFiles":{
    "cwd":"./properties",
    "files":{
      "documents": "documents.json",
      "wsdl": "wsdl.json"
    }
  }
}

In this case, when Properties load your properties file in memory, it'll provide a JSON like this :

{
 "product":"MP",
  "myOwnData":{
    "data1":1
  },

  "documents": {
    "doc1": "/directory/docs/file.pdf"
  },
  
  "wsdl": {
    "wsdl1": "..."
  }

}

Next step, You must initialize Properties in your app.js. Just add this code for that :

import {Properties} from 'ts-json-properties';

Properties.initialize(); //Import automatically properties.json 

//or load it from another path

Properties.initialize('path/to/properties.json'); 

And finally, you use the decorator to values attributes on your class.

import {Value, Properties} from 'ts-json-properties';

export class Foo {
    
    @Value('documents.doc1')
    private documents1:string; 
    
    constructor(){
    
        console.log('Doc =>', this.documents1); // Doc => /directory/docs/file.pdf
        
        //or with Properties Api
        
        console.log('wsdl', Properties.get('wsdl')); // wsdl => {"wsdl1":"..."}
    }
}

Note : All properties returned by @Value or Properties.getValue are immutable.

From Env

Define your env variable:

export path__to__var = "1000"

Then use @EnvValue:

import {Value, Properties} from 'ts-json-properties';

export class Foo {
    @EventValue('path.to.var')
    private documents1: string; 
}

Note: if the env value is undefined, the value will be retrieved from properties.json

$ npm install -g mocha
$ npm test
