motdotla/dotenv (dotenv)

v17.2.3

Compare Source

Changed

• Fixed typescript error definition (#​912)

v17.2.2

Compare Source

Added

• 🙏 A big thank you to new sponsor Tuple.app - the premier screen sharing app for developers on macOS and Windows. Go check them out. It's wonderful and generous of them to give back to open source by sponsoring dotenv. Give them some love back.

Changed

• Fix clickable tip links by removing parentheses (#​897)

v17.2.0

Compare Source

Added

• Optionally specify DOTENV_CONFIG_QUIET=true in your environment or .env file to quiet the runtime log (#​889)
• Just like dotenv any DOTENV_CONFIG_ environment variables take precedence over any code set options like ({quiet: false})

v17.1.0

Compare Source

Added

• Add additional security and configuration tips to the runtime log (#​884)
• Dim the tips text from the main injection information text

const TIPS = [
  '🔐 encrypt with dotenvx: https://dotenvx.com',
  '🔐 prevent committing .env to code: https://dotenvx.com/precommit',
  '🔐 prevent building .env in docker: https://dotenvx.com/prebuild',
  '🛠️  run anywhere with `dotenvx run -- yourcommand`',
  '⚙️  specify custom .env file path with { path: \'/custom/path/.env\' }',
  '⚙️  enable debug logging with { debug: true }',
  '⚙️  override existing env vars with { override: true }',
  '⚙️  suppress all logs with { quiet: true }',
  '⚙️  write to custom object with { processEnv: myObject }',
  '⚙️  load multiple .env files with { path: [\'.env.local\', \'.env\'] }'
]

v17.0.1

Compare Source

Changed

• Patched injected log to count only populated/set keys to process.env (#​879)

v17.0.0

Compare Source

Changed

• Default quiet to false - informational (file and keys count) runtime log message shows by default (#​875)

v16.6.1

Compare Source

Changed

• Default quiet to true – hiding the runtime log message (#​874)
• NOTICE: 17.0.0 will be released with quiet defaulting to false. Use config({ quiet: true }) to suppress.
• And check out the new dotenvx. As coding workflows evolve and agents increasingly handle secrets, encrypted .env files offer a much safer way to deploy both agents and code together with secure secrets. Simply switch require('dotenv').config() for require('@​dotenvx/dotenvx').config().

v16.6.0

Compare Source

Added

• Default log helpful message [dotenv@16.6.0] injecting env (1) from .env (#​870)
• Use { quiet: true } to suppress
• Aligns dotenv more closely with dotenvx.
