Dotvault for NestJS

Dotvault for NestJS services.

NestJS pulls configuration through ConfigModule, which reads your .env and then hands values to whatever validation schema you have set up. That works well right up until a variable is missing and the failure surfaces three layers deep in a provider. Dotvault gives you a clear view of the file itself, plus snapshots so you can see what changed and when.

What you get

  • →Detects NestJS from @nestjs/core in package.json.
  • →Recognises NODE_ENV and PORT, and describes both in the editor.
  • →Works with @nestjs/config and any custom loader, because it edits the file rather than the framework.
  • →Snapshot history and diff across dev, staging and production files.

Dotvault recognises these variables when you open a NestJS project and surfaces helpful descriptions and warnings in the editor. NestJS is detected via @nestjs/core in package.json.
