agenv 0.2.2

Load environment variables from age-encrypted files

agenv

A simple Python package for securely loading environment variables from age encrypted file.

Installation

pip install agenv

[!NOTE] age must be installed separately, as there is no native Python implementation of age.

Usage

Loading Environment Variables

from agenv import load_age_env

# Decrypts and loads environment variables from a .env.age file
load_age_env(".env.age")

Decrypting and Loading YAML Data

import yaml
from agenv import decrypt

# Decrypts the .age encrypted file and loads the content as a YAML object
yaml_str = decrypt("database.yml.age")
data = yaml.safe_load(yaml_str)
print(data)

Identity Key Selection Order

agenv determines the age identity key in the following order:

1. The identity parameter provided to load_age_env()
2. The AGE_SECRET_KEY environment variable
3. The AGE_SECRET_KEY_FILE environment variable (path to key file)
4. The default key file: ~/.age/key

If no valid identity is found, decryption will fail.
