gleam_dotenv

Similar to Node dotenv and Ruby dotenv

Installation

If available on Hex this package can be added to your Gleam project:

gleam add dotenv

then in your code:

import dotenv
import gleam/erlang/os // do not forget to add gleam_erlang to the project

pub fn main() {
  dotenv.config() // this should load .env file

  let assert Ok(test) = os.get_env("TEST")
  let assert Ok(bar) = os.get_env("BAR")

}

// or you can specify the path to the .env file

pub fn main() {
  dotenv.config_with("path/to/.env") // this should load .env file

  let assert Ok(test) = os.get_env("TEST")
  let assert Ok(bar) = os.get_env("BAR")
}
