Your Terminal App to manage your .env files

DotEnvHub helps storing and accessing your project specific .env files from a central place to setup your environment variables. Supporting you to follow the 12-factor principles when developing applications.

• Organizes files centrally under user_data_dir following the XDG Basedir Spec
• Saves your last selected shell automatically via a config file under user_config_dir
• Supports Creating/Editing/Deleting files in your dotenvhub
• Currently provides 3 ways to set your environment variables:
  1. Copy the Shell specific command to set the environment variables into your clipboard
  2. Create a Copy of the selected file into your current working directory
  3. Copy the path of the selected file to be used with e.g. python-dotenv
     without creating a copy in the project

You can install dotenvhub with:

python -m pip install dotenvhub

Or using pipx

pipx install dotenvhub

After Installation the Interface can be opened with:

dot

Use Ctrl+c to close the interface.

The Creation of a Copy in the CWD and copying the Shell String to set the environment variables can also be done directly in the CLI:

To create a copy of FOLDER/FILE from DotEnvHub and save it as SAVENAME in your CWD:

dot copy <FOLDER/FILE> -N <SAVENAME>

To copy the string to clipboard to set FOLDER/FILE from DotEnvHub in your Shell of Choice:

dot shell <FOLDER/FILE> -S <SHELL>

⚠️ DotEnvHub uses pyperclip to handle copy/paste actions. Based on the pyperclips documentation, you might need additional packages installed on linux systems like xclip or xsel which can be installed with:

sudo apt-get install xclip
sudo apt-get install xsel
