 ## 📖 Description
-NestJS-TypeORM-AWS-Connector provides a robust solution for NestJS applications requiring secure database connections with credentials stored in AWS. This connector bridges the gap between your TypeORM-powered NestJS application and AWS services like Secrets Manager and Parameter Store, enabling secure credential management and automated rotation. Perfect for cloud-native applications, microservices, and enterprise systems where security and reliability are paramount. The connector supports multiple database types, connection pooling optimization, and eliminates hardcoded credentials in your codebase, significantly enhancing your application's security posture.
+**NestJS-TypeORM-AWS-Connector** is a production-grade NestJS module that eliminates the pain of managing database configuration in AWS-hosted applications. Instead of hardcoding credentials or juggling environment variables, this connector resolves your entire TypeORM `DataSourceOptions` from **AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store** and **AWS Secrets Manager** — with built-in credential rotation.
 
-## 🚀 Features
-- ✨ **Secure credential management with AWS Secrets Manager integration**
-- ✨ **Automatic database connection rotation to mitigate credential leaks**
-- ✨ **Configurable connection pooling for optimal database performance**
-- ✨ **Support for multiple database types (MySQL, PostgreSQL)**
-- ✨ **Customizable relation load strategies for performance optimization**
-- ✨ **Failure recovery mechanism for maintaining database connectivity**
-- ✨ **Easy integration with NestJS application configurations**
-- ✨ **Support for both synchronous and asynchronous module registration**
-- ✨ **Extensive logging for debugging and monitoring**
-- ✨ **Zero configuration option with sensible defaults**
+In modern cloud-native architectures, database credentials are rotated regularly for security compliance. Traditional approaches break connections during rotation, causing downtime. This connector solves that with an intelligent **automatic credential rotation service** that seamlessly refreshes database connections with zero downtime, including emergency recovery after consecutive failures.
 
-## 🛠 Installation
-```bash
-# Using npm
-npm install @elsikora/nestjs-typeorm-aws-connector
+### Real-World Use Cases
 
-# Using yarn
-yarn add @elsikora/nestjs-typeorm-aws-connector
+- **ECS Fargate Microservices**: Deploy NestJS APIs on Fargate where credentials are managed by AWS Secrets Manager with automatic rotation policies — the connector picks up fresh credentials without redeployment.
+- **Multi-Environment Deployments**: Use the same codebase across `dev`, `staging`, and `production` — each environment resolves its own database configuration from namespaced SSM parameters.
+- **Aurora PostgreSQL / RDS MySQL**: Connect to managed AWS databases where infrastructure teams control host, port, and secret references via Parameter Store, while application teams only configure entities and behavior.
+- **Compliance-First Organizations**: Meet SOC2 and PCI-DSS requirements by never storing credentials in code, environment files, or container images.
 
-# Using pnpm
-pnpm add @elsikora/nestjs-typeorm-aws-connector
+The connector uses a **split-source model**: infrastructure-owned parameters (host, port, secret ID) live in canonical AWS namespaces, while application-owned settings (pool size, timeouts, sync behavior) live in your app's namespace. Raw value overrides let you bypass SSM entirely for local development.

-- NestJS application
-- AWS credentials configured
-- TypeORM integrated with your NestJS app
+## 🚀 Features
+- ✨ ****AWS Parameter Store Integration** — Resolves database host, port, name, type, and tuning parameters from structured SSM paths with hierarchical namespace support**
+- ✨ ****AWS Secrets Manager Integration** — Fetches username/password credentials from Secrets Manager with proper error handling for missing or malformed secrets**
+- ✨ ****Automatic Credential Rotation** — Configurable interval-based rotation that swaps database connections with zero downtime, including subscriber preservation**
+- ✨ ****Emergency Recovery** — After 3 consecutive rotation failures, automatically attempts full connection recovery with fresh credentials from AWS**
+- ✨ ****Connection Health Validation** — Validates both existing and new connections with `SELECT 1` queries before and after rotation**
+- ✨ ****Split-Source Configuration Model** — Infrastructure-owned settings (host, port, secret-id) use canonical AWS namespaces; app-owned settings use your module namespace**
+- ✨ ****Raw Value Overrides** — Bypass SSM entirely for any field by providing direct values — perfect for local development with `host: '127.0.0.1'`**
+- ✨ ****Hierarchical Lookup Resolution** — Field-level SSM lookup → canonical defaults → ssmLookupDefaults → ParameterStoreConfigModule defaults**
+- ✨ ****Dual Module Format** — Ships both ESM and CJS builds with full TypeScript declarations and source maps**
+- ✨ ****Comprehensive Error Model** — Contextual error messages include the failing field name and full structured lookup context for fast debugging**
+- ✨ ****Broad NestJS Compatibility** — Supports NestJS v8 through v11 as peer dependencies**
+- ✨ ****Sync & Async Registration** — Use `register()` for static config or `registerAsync()` with factory functions for dynamic configuration**

 ## 💡 Usage
-## Basic Usage
+### Prerequisites: Register Parameter Store Config Module
 
-First, import the module in your NestJS application's main module:
+Before using the connector, register `ParameterStoreConfigModule` from `@elsikora/nestjs-aws-parameter-store-config`:
 
 ```typescript
-import { Module } from '@nestjs/common';
-import { TypeOrmAwsConnectorModule } from '@elsikora/nestjs-typeorm-aws-connector';
-import { EDatabaseType } from '@elsikora/nestjs-typeorm-aws-connector';
-import { UserEntity } from './entities/user.entity';
+import { Module } from "@nestjs/common";
+import { ConfigModule, ConfigService } from "@nestjs/config";
+import { ENamespace, ParameterStoreConfigModule } from "@elsikora/nestjs-aws-parameter-store-config";
 
 @Module({
   imports: [
-    TypeOrmAwsConnectorModule.register({
-      type: EDatabaseType.POSTGRES,
-      databaseName: 'my_database',
-      port: 5432,
-      entities: [UserEntity],
-      // Optionally enable credential rotation
-      rotation: {
-        isEnabled: true,
-        intervalMs: 3600000, // 1 hour
-      }
+    ConfigModule.forRoot(),
+    ParameterStoreConfigModule.registerAsync({
+      imports: [ConfigModule],
+      inject: [ConfigService],
+      useFactory: (configService: ConfigService) => ({
+        application: configService.getOrThrow<string>("APPLICATION"),
+        config: { region: configService.getOrThrow<string>("AWS_REGION") },
+        environment: configService.getOrThrow<string>("ENVIRONMENT"),
+        instanceName: "my-api",
+        namespace: ENamespace.AWS_ECS_FARGATE,
+        shouldDecryptParameters: true,
+      }),
     }),
   ],
 })
 export class AppModule {}
 ```
 
-## Asynchronous Configuration
+---
 
-If you need to load configuration asynchronously, use the `registerAsync` method:
+### Basic Usage: Static Registration
 
 ```typescript
-import { Module } from '@nestjs/common';
-import { ConfigModule, ConfigService } from '@nestjs/config';
-import { TypeOrmAwsConnectorModule } from '@elsikora/nestjs-typeorm-aws-connector';
-import { EDatabaseType } from '@elsikora/nestjs-typeorm-aws-connector';
+import { Module } from "@nestjs/common";
+import { TypeOrmModule } from "@nestjs/typeorm";
+import {
+  TypeOrmAwsConnectorModule,
+  TypeOrmAwsConnectorService,
+} from "@elsikora/nestjs-typeorm-aws-connector";
+import { UserEntity } from "./entities/user.entity";
 
 @Module({
   imports: [
-    ConfigModule.forRoot(),
-    TypeOrmAwsConnectorModule.registerAsync({
-      imports: [ConfigModule],
-      inject: [ConfigService],
-      useFactory: (configService: ConfigService) => ({
-        type: EDatabaseType.MYSQL,
-        databaseName: configService.get('DB_NAME'),
-        port: configService.get('DB_PORT'),
-        entities: [__dirname + '/**/*.entity{.ts,.js}'],
-        rotation: {
-          isEnabled: configService.get('DB_ROTATION_ENABLED') === 'true',
-        },
-      }),
+    // Register the connector with your entities
+    TypeOrmAwsConnectorModule.register({
+      entities: [UserEntity],
+    }),
+    // Wire it into TypeOrmModule
+    TypeOrmModule.forRootAsync({
+      imports: [TypeOrmAwsConnectorModule],
+      inject: [TypeOrmAwsConnectorService],
+      useFactory: async (connector: TypeOrmAwsConnectorService) =>
+        connector.getTypeOrmOptions(),
     }),
   ],
 })
-export class AppModule {}
+export class DatabaseModule {}
 ```
 
-## Using TypeOrmAwsConnectorService
+---
+
+### Custom SSM Lookups
 
-Inject the service to manually retrieve database connection options:
+Override where specific fields are resolved from in Parameter Store:
 
 ```typescript
-import { Injectable } from '@nestjs/common';
-import { TypeOrmAwsConnectorService } from '@elsikora/nestjs-typeorm-aws-connector';
-import { DataSource, DataSourceOptions } from 'typeorm';
-
-@Injectable()
-export class DatabaseService {
-  private dataSource: DataSource;
-
-  constructor(private readonly connectorService: TypeOrmAwsConnectorService) {}
-
-  async initializeConnection() {
-    const options: DataSourceOptions = await this.connectorService.getTypeOrmOptions();
-    this.dataSource = new DataSource(options);
-    await this.dataSource.initialize();
-    return this.dataSource;
-  }
-}
+import { ENamespace } from "@elsikora/nestjs-aws-parameter-store-config";
+import { TypeOrmAwsConnectorModule } from "@elsikora/nestjs-typeorm-aws-connector";
+
+TypeOrmAwsConnectorModule.register({
+  entities: [UserEntity],
+  ssmLookupDefaults: {
+    instanceName: "my-api",
+    namespace: ENamespace.AWS_ECS_FARGATE,
+  },
+  ssmLookups: {
+    secretId: {
+      instanceName: "database",
+      namespace: ENamespace.AWS_SECRETS_MANAGER,
+      path: ["secret-id"],
+    },
+    host: {
+      instanceName: "aurora-postgres",
+      namespace: ENamespace.AWS_RDS,
+      path: ["host"],
+    },
+    port: {
+      instanceName: "aurora-postgres",
+      namespace: ENamespace.AWS_RDS,
+      path: ["port"],
+    },
+  },
+});
 ```
 
-## AWS Parameter Store and Secrets Manager Configuration
+---
+
+### Local Development: Raw Value Overrides
 
-The connector expects your AWS environment to be properly configured:
+Bypass AWS entirely for local development:
 
 ```typescript
-// Simplified example of AWS setup requirements
-// In your AWS Parameter Store:
-// /myapp/database-credentials-secret-id -> 'db-credentials-secret-id'
-// /myapp/host -> 'your-database-hostname'
-
-// In AWS Secrets Manager (with ID 'db-credentials-secret-id'):
-// {
-//   "username": "dbuser",
-//   "password": "dbpassword"
-// }
-
-// Your NestJS module configuration
+import { EDatabaseType } from "@elsikora/nestjs-typeorm-aws-connector";
+
 TypeOrmAwsConnectorModule.register({
-  type: EDatabaseType.POSTGRES,
-  databaseName: 'myapp_db',
+  entities: [UserEntity],
+  host: "127.0.0.1",
   port: 5432,
-  entities: [__dirname + '/**/*.entity{.ts,.js}'],
-  secretID: {
-    path: ['myapp', 'database-credentials-secret-id'],
-    service: EService.AWS_SECRETS_MANAGER
-  },
-  host: {
-    path: ['myapp', 'host'],
-    service: EService.AWS_RDS
-  }
-})
+  username: "local-user",
+  password: "local-password",
+  databaseName: "mydb",
+  type: EDatabaseType.POSTGRES,
+});
 ```
 
-## Connection Rotation
+---
+
+### Enabling Credential Rotation
 
-Enable automatic credential rotation for enhanced security:
+Enable automatic credential rotation for long-running services:
 
 ```typescript
 TypeOrmAwsConnectorModule.register({
-  // Basic config...
-  type: EDatabaseType.POSTGRES,
-  databaseName: 'myapp_db',
-  port: 5432,
   entities: [UserEntity],
-  
-  // Rotation config
   rotation: {
     isEnabled: true,
-    intervalMs: 1800000 // Rotate every 30 minutes
+    intervalMs: 3_600_000, // Rotate every hour
   },
-  
-  // Advanced connection pool settings
-  poolSize: 20,
-  connectionTimeoutMs: 60000,
-  idleTimeoutMs: 30000
-})
+});
 ```
 
-## Advanced Configuration Options
+The rotation service will:
+1. Validate current connection health
+2. Fetch fresh credentials from AWS Secrets Manager
+3. Create a new DataSource with updated credentials
+4. Verify the new connection with a `SELECT 1` query
+5. Swap the driver seamlessly, preserving all subscribers
+6. Attempt emergency recovery after 3 consecutive failures
 
-You can fine-tune the connector with various options:
+---
 
-```typescript
-import { ERelationLoadStrategy } from '@elsikora/nestjs-typeorm-aws-connector';
+### Async Registration with Factory
 
-TypeOrmAwsConnectorModule.register({
-  // Basic config...
-  type: EDatabaseType.POSTGRES,
-  databaseName: 'myapp_db',
-  port: 5432,
-  entities: [UserEntity],
-  
-  // Performance settings
-  poolSize: 15,
-  connectionTimeoutMs: 30000,
-  idleTimeoutMs: 60000,
-  
-  // Database behavior
-  shouldSynchronize: false,
-  isVerbose: true,
-  relationLoadStrategy: ERelationLoadStrategy.QUERY,
-  
-  // AWS configuration
-  secretID: {
-    path: ['my-app', 'db-secret-id'],
-    service: EService.AWS_SECRETS_MANAGER
-  },
-  host: {
-    path: ['my-app', 'db-host'],
-    service: EService.AWS_RDS
-  }
-})
+```typescript
+TypeOrmAwsConnectorModule.registerAsync({
+  imports: [ConfigModule],
+  inject: [ConfigService],
+  useFactory: (configService: ConfigService) => ({
+    entities: [UserEntity],
+    rotation: {
+      isEnabled: configService.get<boolean>("DB_ROTATION_ENABLED", false),
+      intervalMs: configService.get<number>("DB_ROTATION_INTERVAL", 3_600_000),
+    },
+  }),
+});
 ```
 
+---
+
+### Value Resolution Priority
+
+For each configuration field, values are resolved in this order:
+
+1. **Raw value override** (provided directly in config)
+2. **SSM Parameter Store lookup** (via structured lookup)
+3. **Built-in default** (only for optional tuning fields like `poolSize`, `connectionTimeoutMs`)
+
+Required fields (`host`, `port`, `databaseName`, `type`, `secretId`) throw explicit errors if not resolvable.

-#### Q: How does credential rotation work?
-A: When rotation is enabled, the connector periodically fetches fresh credentials from AWS Secrets Manager without disrupting existing connections. It creates a new connection pool with updated credentials, verifies it works correctly, and then seamlessly replaces the old connection.
+### ❓ Frequently Asked Questions
 
-#### Q: What happens if AWS services are temporarily unavailable?
-A: The connector includes a failover mechanism that retries connection attempts and maintains the current connection until AWS services become available again. After multiple failures, it will attempt an emergency recovery process.
+**Q: Do I need AWS credentials to use this locally?**
+A: No! Use raw value overrides to bypass AWS entirely during local development. Set `host`, `port`, `username`, `password`, `databaseName`, and `type` directly in the config.
 
-#### Q: Can I use this with non-AWS hosted databases?
-A: Yes, you can use this connector with any database as long as the connection credentials are stored in AWS Secrets Manager and Parameter Store. The actual database can be hosted anywhere.
+**Q: Which databases are supported?**
+A: Currently PostgreSQL (`EDatabaseType.POSTGRES`) and MySQL (`EDatabaseType.MYSQL`). The `type` field is resolved from SSM or set directly.
 
-#### Q: Does this support custom TypeORM entities and migrations?
-A: Absolutely. The connector seamlessly integrates with your existing TypeORM entities and migration configurations.
+**Q: What happens if AWS Secrets Manager is unreachable during rotation?**
+A: The rotation service catches the error, increments a failure counter, and logs it. After 3 consecutive failures, it attempts an emergency recovery with a completely fresh DataSource. The existing connection continues to function until rotation succeeds.
 
-#### Q: What permissions do I need in AWS?
-A: Your AWS role needs read permissions for Parameter Store and Secrets Manager. Specifically, you need `ssm:GetParameter` and `secretsmanager:GetSecretValue` permissions.
+**Q: Can I use this without `@elsikora/nestjs-aws-parameter-store-config`?**
+A: No. The connector depends on `ParameterStoreConfigService.get()` for SSM lookups. You must register `ParameterStoreConfigModule` first. However, if you provide raw values for all fields, SSM lookups won't actually be invoked.
 
-#### Q: Can I customize the logger?
-A: The connector uses NestJS's built-in logger by default, which you can customize through your NestJS application configuration.
+**Q: How does the split-source model work?**
+A: Infrastructure-owned fields like `host`, `port`, and `secretId` default to canonical AWS namespaces (e.g., `aws-rds/aurora-postgres`). Application-owned fields like `poolSize` and `connectionTimeoutMs` use your app's namespace (e.g., `aws-ecs-fargate/my-api`). You can override any lookup.

+**Q: How do I disable credential rotation?**
+A: Don't set the `rotation` config, or explicitly set `rotation.isEnabled: false`. The `RotatorService` will skip interval registration entirely.
