*Why?* nconf cons: - Single instance: third-party modules cannot use it (shouldn't) - It reads the entire process.env object: it pollutes the object with keys that you don't need. - It forces you to use the "optimist" module to parse the cli options. - Cannot relocate the argv options, they are always in the first deep level. - It reads the files synchronously. - Can only parse .json files. - Unmaintained. seraphim pros: - Multiple instances. - process.env is not read, it depends on the user. - The cli options are not read, it depends on the user, so you can use any cli parser. - It reads the files asynchronously. - Can parse any extension. - Incredible awesome api and easy to use. *Example* https://github.com/gagle/node-seraphim/blob/master/t.js "use strict"; var seraphim = require ("./lib"); var properties = require ("properties"); var argv = require ("argp") .allowUndefinedArguments () .allowUndefinedOptions () .body ().help () .argv (); var optionsProperties = { path: true, namespaces: true }; var vault = seraphim.createVault (); vault.extension (".properties", function (p, cb){ properties.parse (p, optionsProperties, cb) }); vault.on ("error", function (error){ console.log (error); }); vault.on ("end", function (){ console.log (this.get ()); }); vault .use ({ a: { b: 1 } }) .use (function (cb){ process.nextTick (function (){ cb (null, { a: { b: 2 } }); }); }) .use (function (){ return { a: { b: 3 } }; }) .use ("a.json") .use ("b.properties") .use (function (){ var a = vault.get ("a"); a.b = argv.b !== undefined ? argv.b : a.b; a.c = argv.c !== undefined ? argv.c : a.c; }); /* //a.json { "a": { "c": 1 } } //b.properties a.c 2 $ node t.js { a: { b: 3, c: 2 } } node t.js --b 0 --c 3 { a: { b: 0, c: 3 } } $ node t.js -h Usage: t [options] -h, --help Display this help message and exit */ *Whould you buy it?* -- -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
