envdrift 6.4.0

Prevent environment variable drift with Pydantic schema validation, pre-commit hooks, and dotenvx encryption

envdrift

Sync environment variables across your team. No more "it works on my machine."

The Problem

• New developer joins → spends half a day hunting for the right .env values
• Someone updates a secret → nobody else knows until production breaks
• "Can you send me the latest API keys?" in Slack → security nightmare

Paid SaaS solutions exist, but do you really want your production secrets on someone else's infrastructure?

The Solution

envdrift is an open-source CLI that syncs encrypted .env files using your existing cloud vault. No hosted service, no additional servers, no third-party trust.

• Your infrastructure — Works with Azure Key Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, HashiCorp Vault, GCP Secret Manager
• Zero trust required — Secrets never leave your cloud
• No new servers — Just a CLI tool, no client-server architecture
• Free forever — MIT licensed, no per-seat pricing

# New team member onboarding - one command
envdrift pull

# That's it. Keys synced from vault, .env files decrypted, ready to code.

Installation

pip install "envdrift[vault]"  # All vault providers

Quick Start

1. Encrypt and push to vault (once per project):

envdrift encrypt .env.production
envdrift vault-push . my-app-key --provider azure --vault-url https://myvault.vault.azure.net/

2. Team members pull instantly:

envdrift pull --provider azure --vault-url https://myvault.vault.azure.net/

3. Daily workflow:

envdrift pull   # After git pull - sync keys, decrypt
envdrift lock   # Before commit - encrypt, verify keys
