Configuration

Newgate follows a "configuration by code" philosophy. Most configuration happens when setting up the App instance or via middleware.

CORS Configuration

Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) can be configured using app.cors().

app.cors({
  origin: ['https://trusted.com'],
  methods: ['GET', 'POST'],
  allowedHeaders: ['Content-Type', 'Authorization'],
  credentials: true
});

Environment Variables

We recommend using dotenv for managing environment-specific configuration.

npm install dotenv

// server.js
import 'dotenv/config';
import App from 'newgatejs';

const app = new App();
const PORT = process.env.PORT || 3000;

app.listen(PORT);

Parser Limits

You can configure limits for the form-data parser to protect against DoS attacks.

// Limits are applied internally by the parser middleware
// Currently, these are set to safe defaults:
// - File Size: 10MB
// - Total Memory: 50MB
