.ENV-SWITCHER

EASY SWICHING .ENV FILES

If you apply .env modules to your service, .env files need to be handled . As you divide your service into micro services, .env files are getting more like tribbles. I hope you can manage your envs easily without any mistakes with this cli.

Install

$ npm install -g env-switcher

Setting your project up

Move into your project directory.

1. Initialize env-switcher for your project.

$ envswitch init <env_name>

• you can run without env_name parameter, then your default name of env setting is: 'default'

$ envswitch init

• Then .envswitcher will be automatically added to .gitignore if it exists.

• For ElasticBeanstalk users: it should be added to .ebignore manually.

2. Put env files into .envswitcher. example:

.envswitcher
|-dev
|-prod
|-...

You can choose any names as your own envs.

Usage

$ envswitch use <env_name>

For example, you wanna change your .env files as development environment.
(When you made your own env files dev in .envswitcher.)

$ envswitch use dev

Put the command below to swtich environment as production.

$ envswitch use prod

And you wanna change environment to mytest

$ envswitch use mytest
