@socketsecurity/config
Advanced tools
Reader/parser/validator tool for Socket.dev's socket.yml configuration files
npm install @socketsecurity/config
import { readSocketConfig } from '@socketsecurity/config'
const config = await readSocketConfig('socket.yml')
readSocketConfig(<path-to-config-file>)Returns a Promise that resolves to the parsed config file or, if no such file was found, it fails silently and returns undefined.
If the config file can't be read, then the Promise will be rejected with an error.
The read file is parsed using parseSocketConfigand the Promise from there is what is ultimately returned when no rejection or resolve has been made already.
parseSocketConfig(<content-of-config-file>)Returns a Promise that resolves to the parsed config.
If the config content can't be parsed or it is invalid, then the Promise will be rejected with an error.
Any additional parameters that does not conform to the schema will be silently dropped. Also: Input data will be coerced into its intended shape when possible.

SocketValidationErrorError thrown when the parsed data doesn't conform to the JSON Schema definition.
Extends Error and adds these additional properties:
data – the data that's found to be invalidschema – the schema used to validate the contentvalidationErrors – an array of Ajv's ErrorObjectThis module has full type coverage through a types in js where TypeScript validates JSDoc annotated javascript and exports it as standard type definition files.
