- Use direnv to set environment variables dynamically when entering a folder.
- Use Taskfile to provide tasks which uses the environment variables provided by direnv.
- Use pkgx to define project tooling (see
dev
command).
Add .envrc
files in strategic locations, like:
~/code/work/.envrc
~/code/work/project/.envrc
Run direnv allow .
in each location to allow it to execute.
Start the .envrc
file with:
source_up_if_exists
Add default and work configs, something like this:
gcloud config configurations list
gcloud config configurations create work
gcloud config configurations activate work
gcloud config set account [email protected]
cat ~/.config/gcloud/configurations/config_work
Add as needed to .envrc
, per project or in a top-level work folder, or a mix:
export CLOUDSDK_ACTIVE_CONFIG_NAME="name-of-config"
export CLOUDSDK_CORE_PROJECT="name-of-gcp-project"
export CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_REGION="europe-west1"
export CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_ZONE="europe-west1-b"
Add something like this so to enable cloud-sql-proxy $DB1
:
export DB1="$CLOUDSDK_CORE_PROJECT:$CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_REGION:$GCE_DATABASE_INSTANCE_1"
Add something like this to enable psql --expanded $PGCONN -f query.sql
:
export PGDRIVER="postgresql://"
export PGHOST="127.0.0.1"
export PGPORT="5432"
export GCE_DATABASE_NAME="db"
export DB_USER="postgres"
export DB_PASS="secret"
export PGFLAGS="?sslmode=disable"
export PGCONN="$PGDRIVER$DB_USER:$DB_USER@$PGHOST:$PGPORT/$GCE_DATABASE_NAME$PGFLAGS"
Dotfiles will install a global Taskfile into ~/Taskfile.yml
which can use the environment variables provided by direnv.
In each project, add a pkgx.yml
file to define project tooling, unless it is not picked up from lockfiles etc.
Note that the shell integration is required and that the dev
command must be used to activate the dev tooling. See more info in the docs: https://docs.pkgx.sh
# pkgx.yml

- go # uses the latest version if no version is specified
