|
Load environment variables dynamically in Go.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
Put the gotenv package on your `import` statement:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
import "github.com/subosito/gotenv"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To modify your app environment variables, `gotenv` expose 2 main functions:
|
|
|
|
- `gotenv.Load`
|
|
- `gotenv.Apply`
|
|
|
|
By default, `gotenv.Load` will look for a file called `.env` in the current working directory.
|
|
|
|
Behind the scene, it will then load `.env` file and export the valid variables to the environment variables. Make sure you call the method as soon as possible to ensure it loads all variables, say, put it on `init()` function.
|
|
|
|
Once loaded you can use `os.Getenv()` to get the value of the variable.
|
|
|
|
Let's say you have `.env` file:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
APP_ID=1234567
|
|
APP_SECRET=abcdef
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Here's the example of your app:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
package main
|
|
|
|
import (
|
|
"github.com/subosito/gotenv"
|
|
"log"
|
|
"os"
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
func init() {
|
|
gotenv.Load()
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
func main() {
|
|
log.Println(os.Getenv("APP_ID")) // "1234567"
|
|
log.Println(os.Getenv("APP_SECRET")) // "abcdef"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can also load other than `.env` file if you wish. Just supply filenames when calling `Load()`. It will load them in order and the first value set for a variable will win.:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
gotenv.Load(".env.production", "credentials")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
While `gotenv.Load` loads entries from `.env` file, `gotenv.Apply` allows you to use any `io.Reader`:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
gotenv.Apply(strings.NewReader("APP_ID=1234567"))
|
|
|
|
log.Println(os.Getenv("APP_ID"))
|
|
// Output: "1234567"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Both `gotenv.Load` and `gotenv.Apply` **DO NOT** overrides existing environment variables. If you want to override existing ones, you can see section below.
|
|
|
|
### Environment Overrides
|
|
|
|
Besides above functions, `gotenv` also provides another functions that overrides existing:
|
|
|
|
- `gotenv.OverLoad`
|
|
- `gotenv.OverApply`
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here's the example of this overrides behavior:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
os.Setenv("HELLO", "world")
|
|
|
|
// NOTE: using Apply existing value will be reserved
|
|
gotenv.Apply(strings.NewReader("HELLO=universe"))
|
|
fmt.Println(os.Getenv("HELLO"))
|
|
// Output: "world"
|
|
|
|
// NOTE: using OverApply existing value will be overridden
|
|
gotenv.OverApply(strings.NewReader("HELLO=universe"))
|
|
fmt.Println(os.Getenv("HELLO"))
|
|
// Output: "universe"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Throw a Panic
|
|
|
|
Both `gotenv.Load` and `gotenv.OverLoad` returns an error on something wrong occurred, like your env file is not exist, and so on. To make it easier to use, `gotenv` also provides `gotenv.Must` helper, to let it panic when an error returned.
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
err := gotenv.Load(".env-is-not-exist")
|
|
fmt.Println("error", err)
|
|
// error: open .env-is-not-exist: no such file or directory
|
|
|
|
gotenv.Must(gotenv.Load, ".env-is-not-exist")
|
|
// it will throw a panic
|
|
// panic: open .env-is-not-exist: no such file or directory
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Another Scenario
|
|
|
|
Just in case you want to parse environment variables from any `io.Reader`, gotenv keeps its `Parse` and `StrictParse` function as public API so you can use that.
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
// import "strings"
|
|
|
|
pairs := gotenv.Parse(strings.NewReader("FOO=test\nBAR=$FOO"))
|
|
// gotenv.Env{"FOO": "test", "BAR": "test"}
|
|
|
|
err, pairs = gotenv.StrictParse(strings.NewReader(`FOO="bar"`))
|
|
// gotenv.Env{"FOO": "bar"}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`Parse` ignores invalid lines and returns `Env` of valid environment variables, while `StrictParse` returns an error for invalid lines.
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
The gotenv package is a Go port of [`dotenv`](https://github.com/bkeepers/dotenv) project with some additions made for Go. For general features, it aims to be compatible as close as possible.
