Source type is now inferred from the primary key: github_repo = owner/repo (was source=github + owner + repo) git_url = https://... (was source=gittag + url) gitea_repo = owner/repo (was source=gitea + owner + repo) hashicorp_product = name (was source=hashicorp + product) One-off dist sources (nodedist, zigdist, etc.) keep the explicit source= key since they're already one-liners. Parser still accepts the old format via the default fallback branch.

| dotenv | https://github.com/therootcompany/dotenv | dotenv: a cross-platform tool to load a .env and run a command. |
To update or switch versions, run webi dotenv@stable.
Files
These are the files / directories that are created and/or modified with this install:
~/.config/envman/PATH.env
~/.local/bin/dotenv
Cheat Sheet
dotenv makes it easy to run a command with a set of ENVs (environment variables) from a .env file. It works cross platform, and with any programming environment (Node.js, Go, Rust, Ruby, Python, etc)
# Usage: dotenv [-f .env.alt] -- <command> [arguments]
# Example:
dotenv -f .env -- node server.js --debug
How Precedence Works
- command line flags
- ex:
--port 8080
- ex:
- existing environment variables
- ex:
export PORT=8080orenv PORT=8080 mycommand
- ex:
- first-loaded wins for multiple or cascading .env.* files
- ex:
dotenv -f .env,.env.local
- ex:
ENV syntax
# comments and blank lines are ignored
# you can use quotes of either style
FOO=bar
FOO2="bar2 bar3"
FOO3='bar2 bar3'
# 'export' will be trimmed and ignored
# (yay for bash compatibility)
export FOOBAR=excellent
Why --?
The -- is a common convention for arguments parsers to let them know that
everything after the -- should be treated as an argument (a word) rather than
a flag (not something like --help).
You should use this whenever one command runs another command.
