Create a go configuration struct from your container configuration environment variables.
Set rules to define if an environment variables is required or optional.
Use the library as shown below:
import (
"log"
"github.com/arkadiusjonczek/containerconfig-go/configuration"
)
type CustomConfiguration struct {
RequiredField string
OptionalField string
}
func main() {
builder := configuration.NewBuilder[CustomConfiguration]()
builder.Env("RequiredField")
builder.Env("OptionalField").SetOptional().WithDefault("optional")
customConfiguration, err := builder.Build()
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
log.Println(customConfiguration.RequiredField)
log.Println(customConfiguration.OptionalField)
}
You can find that example located inside the main directory.
See the previous example in action:
$ go run main/main.go
2024/05/02 08:53:05 environment variable 'RequiredField' is required but was not found
exit status 1
$ RequiredField=Foo go run main/main.go
2024/05/02 08:53:20 Foo
2024/05/02 08:53:20 optional
$ RequiredField=Foo OptionalField=Bar go run main/main.go
2024/05/02 08:53:33 Foo
2024/05/02 08:53:33 Bar
