Code sample

from envbox import get_environment

# Detect current environment type
# and get its object.
#
# Default detection sources:
# 1. ``PYTHON_ENV`` env variable
# 2. ``environment`` file contents
#
# By default this function will also try to read env variables from .env files.
env = get_environment()

env.name
# >> development

env.is_production
# >> False

env.get('HOME')
# The same as env['HOME'] and env.HOME
# >> /home/idle/

env.getmany('PYTHON')
# {'UNBUFFERED': '1', 'IOENCODING': 'UTF-8', 'PATH': ...}
