dotenv-getter

Simply provides a global env() function to get environment variables, instead of process.env.CONSTANT

Installation

Use the node package manager to install dotenv-getter.

npm install dotenv-getter

Usage

// configures dotenv and sets global env() helper
import "dotenv-getter"

// get your .env constant
const appKey = env('APP_KEY')

// provide a default value
const appEnv = env('APP_ENV', 'production')

Flexible

When preloading dotenv from the command line, like when using import statements (checkout the dotenv docs for more info)

$ node -r dotenv/config your_script.js

Set only global env() helper

import "dotenv-getter/helper"

Manually configure dotenv or use the parse() function

// imports dotenv and sets global env() helper
import { config, parse } from 'dotenv-getter/dotenv'
