env-validate-sarcastically v1.0.5

env-validate-sarcastically 🛠️💀

Because forgetting .env variables is your full-time job.

What is this?

Oh, just another life-saving tool you never knew you needed—until your app blew up because you forgot to set DATABASE_URL. env-validate-sarcastically does one thing: it checks if your .env file has all the required variables from .env.example and screams at you if it doesn’t.

Yes, that's right. It spoon-feeds you the information your own brain refuses to retain.

Installation

Because I know you're just gonna forget this too:

npm install env-validate-sarcastically

Usage

1. Create a .env.example file (because planning ahead is hard)

Put all the required environment variables in it:

PORT=3000
DATABASE_URL=your_database_url
JWT_SECRET=your_secret_key

2. Forget to set some variables in .env (because of course you will)

PORT=3000
DATABASE_URL=your_database_url
# Oops, forgot JWT_SECRET. Enjoy debugging!

3. 3. Run the script and get shamed:

const validateEnv = require("env-validate-sarcastically");
validateEnv();

4. Behold the judgmental error message:

❌ Missing required environment variables: JWT_SECRET  

There. Now you have no excuses.

Why should you care?

• Because debugging "why is my app broken?" at 3 AM isn't fun.
• Because production crashes due to missing .env variables are not a flex.
• Because telling your boss, "I forgot to set JWT_SECRET" will get you roasted in standup.

Contribute? Sure, why not.

If you somehow find a way to make this even more idiot-proof, feel free to submit a PR. Or just star the repo and pretend you helped.
