@dot/env

Load environment variables from .env files.

This tiny package composes a few packages in order to load .env intelligently:

• dotenv
• dotenv-expand
• find-up

Differences with dotenv:

• Automatically expands variables such as ${NODE_ENV} within the .env files
• Searches the immediate directory (current working directory) for an .env file, and if not found, continues to look in parent directories until a .env file is found, or .git is encountered.

Possible future features:

• [ ] Composing multiple .env files
• [ ] Extending .env files

Requirements

This package requires an Active LTS Node version (v18+).

Install

Using pnpm:

pnpm add @dot/env

Usage

Usage is straightforward:

import '@dot/env';

That's it. You're good to go.
