 If native loaders provided by `nest-typed-config` can't meet your needs, you can implement a custom loader. This can be achieved by providing a function which returns the configuration object synchronously or asynchronously through the `load` option. For example:

-TypedConfigModule.forRoot({
+TypedConfigModule.forRootAsync({

+  load: async () => {
     return {
       host: '127.0.0.1',
       port: 3000,
