goconfig uses a struct as input and populates the fields of this struct with parameters from command line, environment variables and configuration file.

Install

go get github.com/gosidekick/goconfig

Example

package main

import "github.com/gosidekick/goconfig"

/*
step 1: Declare your configuration struct,
it may or may not contain substructures.
*/

type mongoDB struct {
    Host string `cfgDefault:"example.com" cfgRequired:"true"`
    Port int    `cfgDefault:"999"`
}

type configTest struct {
    Domain    string
    DebugMode bool `json:"db" cfg:"db" cfgDefault:"false"`
    MongoDB   mongoDB
    IgnoreMe  string `cfg:"-"`
}

func main() {

    // step 2: Instantiate your structure.
    config := configTest{}

    // step 3: Pass the instance pointer to the parser
    err := goconfig.Parse(&config)
    if err != nil {
        println(err)
        return
    }

    /*
       The parser populated your struct with the data
       it took from environment variables and command
       line and now you can use it.
    */

    println("config.Domain......:", config.Domain)
    println("config.DebugMode...:", config.DebugMode)
    println("config.MongoDB.Host:", config.MongoDB.Host)
    println("config.MongoDB.Port:", config.MongoDB.Port)
}

With the example above try environment variables like $DOMAIN or $MONGODB_HOST and run the example again to see what happens.

You can also try using parameters on the command line, try -h to see the help.
