env-profiles

Dead simple .env profile switching with yaml config

Sample env.yml configuration

default:
  # comment...
  default: true

dev: 
  default: false
  dev: true
  foo: bar

Switch profiles

$ env-profiles default
Switched to the default profile

$ cat .env
default=true

When using custom profiles values are inherited from the default profile, then duplicates are overwritten by custom profile values

$ env-profiles dev
Switched to the dev profile

$ cat .env
default=false
dev=true
foo=bar

env-profiles looks for the env.yml configuration file and writes the .env file in your current working directory of execution.

Don't forget to add env.yml to your .gitignore!

Install

The easiest way to use env-profiles is to install it globally as a Node command line program. Run the following command in Terminal:

$ npm install --global env-profiles

Or, you can install env-profiles locally, for use in a single project:

$ npm install --save-dev env-profiles
