expand-dotenv

expand-dotenv

expand-dotenv adds variable expansion on top of dotenv. If you find yourself needing to expand environment variables already existing on your machine, then expand-dotenv is your tool.

BuildStatus NPM version js-standard-style

Install

npm install dotenv --save
npm install expand-dotenv --save

Usage

As early as possible in your application, require dotenv and expand-dotenv, and wrap expand-dotenv around dotenv.

var dotenv = require('dotenv')
var dotenvExpand = require('expand-dotenv')

var myEnv = dotenv.config()
dotenvExpand(myEnv)

See test/.env for examples of variable expansion in your .env file.
