enva 0.1.0

Utility tools for working with environment variables

Enva

Making working with environment variables in Python slightly better.

Ever needed to get an environment variable as an integer or a boolean? Ever needed to assert that an environment variable is set? Stop looking at the standard library. It can't help you. enva can.

enva provides utility functionality for working with environment variables in Python. There are two main features:

• Variable retrieval (as alternative types, e.g. int)
• Variable assertion (e.g. is the variable set)

Examples

Converting env vars

print(get_env_int("SOME_VAR"))  # 10 (as an int)

Verifying env var types

import os
from enva.checkers import require_variable_as_type

os.environ["SOME_VAR"] = "10"
os.environ["ANOTHER_VAR"] = "ten"

print(require_variable_as_type("SOME_VAR", float))  # No throw
print(require_variable_as_type("ANOTHER_VAR", float))  # Will raise
