Envy

Envy loads and sets environment variables from YAML. It supports all YAML data types, including arrays and hashes.

Envy uses the YAML key mapping of a value as the environment variable name. For example, the following YAML configuration...

---
app:
  database:
    host: localhost
    port: 4321
  server:
    hosts:
      - localhost
      - grottopress.localhost
    port: 8080
  webhooks:
    - url: "https://example.com"
      token: "a1b2c2"
    - url: "https://myapp.net"
      token: "d4e5f6"

...sets environment variables as follows:

ENV["APP_DATABASE_HOST"] = "localhost"
ENV["APP_DATABASE_PORT"] = "4321"

ENV["APP_SERVER_HOSTS_0"] = "localhost"
ENV["APP_SERVER_HOSTS_1"] = "grottopress.localhost"
ENV["APP_SERVER_PORT"] = "8080"

ENV["APP_WEBHOOKS_0_URL"] = "https://example.com"
ENV["APP_WEBHOOKS_0_TOKEN"] = "a1b2c2"
ENV["APP_WEBHOOKS_1_URL"] = "https://myapp.net"
ENV["APP_WEBHOOKS_1_TOKEN"] = "d4e5f6"

It sets file permission (0600 by default) for all config files.

Envy supports loading a file from a supplied list of files in decreasing order of priority; the first readable file is loaded.

Installation

1. Add the dependency to your shard.yml:

   dependencies:
     envy:
       github: GrottoPress/envy

2. Run shards install

Usage

• Load the first readable file from a supplied list of files. Optionally set files permissions. This does not overwrite existing environment variables:

  require "envy"
  
  Envy.from_file ".env.yml", ".env.dev.yml", perm: 0o400

• Load the first readable file from a supplied list of files. Optionally set files permissions. This overwrites existing environment variables:

  require "envy"
  
  Envy.from_file! ".env.yml", ".env.dev.yml", perm: 0o400
