aws-param-env

Module for loading parameter-store values from AWS SSM into environment variables

This fork has been updated to depend on aws-param-store-sdkv3, in order to support the AWS SDK v3 (and now depends only on the client-ssm module of the sdk).

Features

• Loads parameters by path
• Runs synchronously to that environment variables can be set before your code loads
• Recursively loads and decodes parameters by default
• Can run inside AWS Lambda environment
• AWS Lambda Node.js 10.x compatible

Installation

Install via npm.

npm install aws-param-env-sdkv3 --save

Getting Started

const awsParamEnv = require( 'aws-param-env-sdkv3' );

awsParamEnv.load( '/my-service-path-in-ssm/env' );

If your AWS region is not set in your environment variables, then it can be set programmatically by supplying options when calling load():

const awsParamEnv = require( 'aws-param-env-sdkv3' );

awsParamEnv.load( '/my-service-path-in-ssm/env', { region: 'us-east-1' } );

To load the environment variables automatically from a path, set the AWS_SSM_ENV_PATH to the SSM path and the AWS_REGION to the correct AWS region.

// AWS_SSM_ENV_PATH = '/my-services/service1/env', AWS_REGION='us-east-1'
require( 'aws-param-env-sdkv3' );

// environment variables are automatically loaded from the SSM parameter store
