Feature Toggles (Feature Flags)

Feature Toggles (Feature Flags)

Current Level: Intermediate
Domain: DevOps / Feature Management

Overview

Feature toggles are runtime switches that enable or disable features without deploying new code. They decouple deployment from release, enabling gradual rollouts, A/​B testing, and emergency feature disabling without code changes.

Why Feature Toggles

Types of Feature Toggles

Release Toggles

// Release toggle (temporary)
function showNewCheckout() {
    if (featureEnabled('new-checkout')) {
        return <NewCheckout />;
    } else {
        return <OldCheckout />;
    }
}

// Usage
const checkout = showNewCheckout();

Experiment Toggles

// Experiment toggle (A/​B testing)
function showCheckoutVariant() {
    const variant = getExperimentVariant('checkout-test');
    
    if (variant === 'A') {
        return <CheckoutVariantA />;
    } else {
        return <CheckoutVariantB />;
    }
}

// Usage
const checkout = showCheckoutVariant();

Ops Toggles

// Ops toggle (circuit breaker)
function makePayment() {
    if (featureEnabled('payments-enabled')) {
        return processPayment();
    } else {
        return showMaintenanceMessage();
    }
}

// Usage
const payment = makePayment();

Permission Toggles

// Permission toggle (user-based)
function showPremiumFeature() {
    if (userHasPermission('premium')) {
        return <PremiumFeature />;
    } else {
        return <UpgradePrompt />;
    }
}

// Usage
const feature = showPremiumFeature();

Feature Toggle Implementation

Simple Boolean Flag

// Simple boolean flag
const featureFlags = {
    newCheckout: false,
    premiumFeature: true,
    paymentsEnabled: true
};

function featureEnabled(flag) {
    return featureFlags[flag] || false;
}

// Usage
if (featureEnabled('newCheckout')) {
    showNewCheckout();
}

Config File

// config/​feature-flags.json
{
    "newCheckout": false,
    "premiumFeature": true,
    "paymentsEnabled": true
}

// Load config file
const fs = require('fs');
const featureFlags = JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync('config/​feature-flags.json'));

function featureEnabled(flag) {
    return featureFlags[flag] || false;
}

// Usage
if (featureEnabled('newCheckout')) {
    showNewCheckout();
}

Database

-- Feature flags table
CREATE TABLE feature_flags (
    id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
    flag_name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL UNIQUE,
    flag_value BOOLEAN NOT NULL,
    created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT NOW(),
    updated_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT NOW()
);

-- Insert feature flags
INSERT INTO feature_flags (flag_name, flag_value)
VALUES ('newCheckout', false),
       ('premiumFeature', true),
       ('paymentsEnabled', true);

// Load from database
async function loadFeatureFlags() {
    const result = await db.query('SELECT flag_name, flag_value FROM feature_flags');
    const featureFlags = {};
    
    result.rows.forEach(row => {
        featureFlags[row.flag_name] = row.flag_value;
    });
    
    return featureFlags;
}

async function featureEnabled(flag) {
    const featureFlags = await loadFeatureFlags();
    return featureFlags[flag] || false;
}

// Usage
if (await featureEnabled('newCheckout')) {
    showNewCheckout();
}

Feature Flag Service

// LaunchDarkly
const LaunchDarkly = require('ldclient-node');

const client = LaunchDarkly.init('sdk-key');

client.on('ready', () => {
    const flagValue = client.variation('new-checkout', false, {

}

Hybrid

// Hybrid evaluation (some server, some client)
app.get('/​checkout', (req, res) => {
    const serverFlag = client.variation('payments-enabled', false, req.user);
    
    if (serverFlag) {
        res.send({
            checkout: 'new',
            payments: true
        });

function oldToggles() {
    // Many old toggles in code
    if (featureEnabled('old-feature-1')) { /​* ... */ }
    if (featureEnabled('old-feature-2')) { /​* ... */ }

DIY Feature Flags

Config File

// Config file (simple, requires redeploy)
const fs = require('fs');

function loadFeatureFlags() {
    const config = JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync('config/​feature-flags.json'));
    return config;
}

function featureEnabled(flag) {
    const flags = loadFeatureFlags();
    return flags[flag] || false;
}

// Usage
if (featureEnabled('new-checkout')) {
    showNewCheckout();
}

Database

// Database table (dynamic, adds latency)
async function loadFeatureFlags() {
    const result = await db.query('SELECT flag_name, flag_value FROM feature_flags');
    const flags = {};
    
    result.rows.forEach(row => {
        flags[row.flag_name] = row.flag_value;
    });
    
    return flags;
}

async function featureEnabled(flag) {
    const flags = await loadFeatureFlags();
    return flags[flag] || false;
}

// Usage
if (await featureEnabled('new-checkout')) {
    showNewCheckout();
}

Redis

// Redis (fast, requires Redis)
const redis = require('redis');
const client = redis.createClient();

async function loadFeatureFlags() {
    const flags = await client.hgetall('feature-flags');
    return flags;
}

async function featureEnabled(flag) {
    const flags = await loadFeatureFlags();
    return flags[flag] === 'true';
}

// Usage
if (await featureEnabled('new-checkout')) {
    showNewCheckout();
}

Performance Considerations

Cache Flag Values

// Cache flag values (don't query every request)
const flagCache = new Map();

async function featureEnabled(flag) {
    // Check cache first
    if (flagCache.has(flag)) {
        return flagCache.get(flag);
    }
    
    // Load from source
    const value = await loadFlagValue(flag);
    
    // Cache the value
    flagCache.set(flag, value);
    
    // Invalidate cache after 5 minutes
    setTimeout(() => {
        flagCache.delete(flag);
    }, 300000);
    
    return value;
}

// Usage
if (await featureEnabled('new-checkout')) {
    showNewCheckout();
}

Evaluate Once Per Request

// Evaluate flags once per request
app.use((req, res, next) => {
    req.flags = {};
    next();
});

app.get('/​checkout', (req, res) => {
    // Evaluate flag once
    if (!req.flags.newCheckout) {
        req.flags.newCheckout = client.variation('new-checkout', false, req.user);
    }
    
    if (req.flags.newCheckout) {
        res.send('<NewCheckout />');
    } else {
        res.send('<OldCheckout />');
    }
});

Minimal Overhead

// Minimal overhead: use in-memory cache
const flagCache = new Map();

function featureEnabled(flag) {
    // In-memory cache (fastest)
    return flagCache.get(flag) || false;
}

// Load flags on startup
async function loadFlags() {
    const flags = await loadFeatureFlags();
    
    Object.entries(flags).forEach(([key, value]) => {
        flagCache.set(key, value);
    });
}

loadFlags();

// Usage
if (featureEnabled('new-checkout')) {
    showNewCheckout();
}

Testing with Toggles

Test Both Paths

// Test both paths (on and off)
describe('New Checkout', () => {
    it('shows new checkout when flag is on', () => {
        setFeatureFlag('new-checkout', true);
        const checkout = showNewCheckout();
        expect(checkout).toBe('<NewCheckout />');
    });
    
    it('shows old checkout when flag is off', () => {
        setFeatureFlag('new-checkout', false);
        const checkout = showNewCheckout();
        expect(checkout).toBe('<OldCheckout />');
    });
});

Integration Tests

// Integration tests with toggles enabled/​disabled
describe('Checkout Integration', () => {
    it('processes payment when flag is on', async () => {
        setFeatureFlag('payments-enabled', true);
        const result = await processPayment();
        expect(result.success).toBe(true);
    });
    
    it('shows maintenance message when flag is off', async () => {
        setFeatureFlag('payments-enabled', false);
        const result = await processPayment();
        expect(result.message).toBe('Maintenance mode');
    });
});

Feature Branch Testing

// Feature branch testing (toggle on)
describe('Feature Branch Tests', () => {
    beforeEach(() => {
        setFeatureFlag('new-checkout', true);
    });
    
    it('tests new checkout flow', () => {
        // Test new checkout flow
    });
});

Multi-Variate Flags

Multiple Variants

// Multi-variate flags (not just on/​off)
const variant = client.variation('new-ui', 'v1', user);

if (variant === 'v1') {
    render(<UIVariant1 />);
} else if (variant === 'v2') {
    render(<UIVariant2 />);
} else if (variant === 'v3') {
    render(<UIVariant3 />);
}

A/​B/​C Testing

// A/​B/​C testing
const variant = client.variation('checkout-test', 'A', user);

if (variant === 'A') {
    render(<CheckoutVariantA />);
} else if (variant === 'B') {
    render(<CheckoutVariantB />);
} else if (variant === 'C') {
    render(<CheckoutVariantC />);
}

Toggle Best Practices

Short-Lived Release Toggles

// Short-lived release toggles (remove after rollout)
function shortLivedToggle() {
    // Create toggle
    setFeatureFlag('new-checkout', false);
    
    // Use during rollout
    // Remove after full rollout
    
    console.log('Toggle will be removed after rollout');
}

shortLivedToggle();

Long-Lived Permission Toggles

// Long-lived permission toggles (for plans)
function longLivedToggle() {
    // Permission toggles stay
    setFeatureFlag('premium-feature', true, {
        segments: ['premium']
    });
    
    console.log('Permission toggle stays for premium users');
}

longLivedToggle();

Descriptive Names

// Descriptive names (new-checkout, not flag-123)
function descriptiveNames() {
    setFeatureFlag('new-checkout', false); // Good
    setFeatureFlag('flag-123', false); // Bad
}

descriptiveNames();

Default to Off

// Default to off (safe default)
function defaultToOff() {
    setFeatureFlag('new-checkout', false); // Safe default
    
    console.log('Default to off (safe)');
}

defaultToOff();

Toggle Anti-Patterns

Toggle Everywhere

// Toggle everywhere (overuse)
function toggleEverywhere() {
    // Too many toggles
    if (featureEnabled('flag-1')) { /​* ... */ }
    if (featureEnabled('flag-2')) { /​* ... */ }
    if (featureEnabled('flag-3')) { /​* ... */ }
    // ... many more
}

toggleEverywhere();

Not Removing Old Toggles

// Not removing old toggles (debt)
function notRemovingOldToggles() {
    // Old toggles accumulate
    if (featureEnabled('old-feature-1')) { /​* ... */ }
    if (featureEnabled('old-feature-2')) { /​* ... */ }
    // ... many old toggles
}

notRemovingOldToggles();

Complex Toggle Logic

// Complex toggle logic (if A && B && !C...)
function complexToggleLogic() {
    // Too complex
    if (featureEnabled('flag-A') && featureEnabled('flag-B') && !featureEnabled('flag-C')) {
        // ...
    }
}

complexToggleLogic();

Real Examples

## Quick Start

### LaunchDarkly Integration

```javascript
const LaunchDarkly = require('launchdarkly-node-server-sdk')

const client = LaunchDarkly.init(process.env.LAUNCHDARKLY_SDK_KEY)

// Check feature flag
const flagValue = await client.variation('new-checkout-flow', user, false)
if (flagValue) {
  // New checkout flow
} else {
  // Old checkout flow
}

Custom Feature Toggle

interface FeatureToggle {
  name: string
  enabled: boolean
  percentage?: number
  userIds?: string[]
}

class FeatureToggleService {
  async isEnabled(toggleName: string, userId: string): Promise<boolean> {
    const toggle = await db.featureToggles.findUnique({
      where: { name: toggleName }
    })
    
    if (!toggle || !toggle.enabled) return false
    
    // Percentage rollout
    if (toggle.percentage) {
      const hash = this.hashUserId(userId)
      return hash % 100 < toggle.percentage
    }
    
    // User list
    if (toggle.userIds?.includes(userId)) {
      return true
    }
    
    return false
  }
}

Production Checklist

• Toggle Service: Set up feature toggle service
• Toggle Management: UI for managing toggles
• Gradual Rollout: Support percentage-based rollout
• User Targeting: Support user-specific toggles
• Monitoring: Monitor toggle usage and impact
• Documentation: Document each feature toggle
• Cleanup: Remove toggles after feature is stable
• Testing: Test with toggles on/​off
• Fallback: Fallback behavior when toggle fails
• Performance: Minimal performance impact
• Security: Secure toggle configuration
• Audit: Audit log of toggle changes

Anti-patterns

❌ Don't: Toggle Debt

// ❌ Bad - Toggle never removed
if (featureToggle('old-feature')) {
  // Old code still here!
}

// ✅ Good - Remove after feature stable
// Toggle removed after 2 weeks of 100% rollout
// Old code removed

❌ Don't: No Fallback

// ❌ Bad - No fallback
const value = await getToggle('feature')
if (value) {
  newFeature()  // What if toggle service fails?
}

// ✅ Good - Fallback to safe default
const value = await getToggle('feature').catch(() => false)  // Default: off
if (value) {
  newFeature()
} else {
  oldFeature()  // Safe fallback
}
