JSON (config file) with dynamic variables
According to my understanding, better idea is to create a global config file like config.js, and put your configurations like
module.exports = { // APP SETTINGS ... "host": process.env.DBHOST || 'localhost', "port": process.env.DBPORT || '8080', ...}; After doing this, you can easily access this file wherever you want.For e.g. if you want to access these configurations in app.js file, then simply include it by adding a line in app.js file
var config = require('./config');This will make the values available under config namespace and the values can be accessed as :
config.host or config.portHope the answer tells what you wanted.. If your intention is something else then please comment..
