npm i @code-like-a-carpenter/dotenv

Usage

This package uses the dotenv package under the hood, but, depending on NODE_ENV, will load more files than just the default .env.

Each of the following files will be loaded if they exist, in the following order. Files loaded earlier take precedence.

• .env.<env>.local
• .env.local
• .env.<env>
• .env

There are only three valid values for <env>, based on the value of NODE_ENV:

Please add the following to your gitignore. local env files are intended for customizing the environment on your local machine and should not be checked into git.

.env.local
.env.*.local
.env.production

Even though you may check env files into git, you still shouldn't check in secrets.
