fillenv 0.1.1

Fill .env templates by prompting for values and outputting KEY=value lines.

fillenv

Minimal Python project managed with uv.

Setup

# Create and sync environment (uses uv.lock/pyproject.toml)
uv sync

# Run a Python REPL using the environment
uv run python -V

Make commands

# Create and sync environment with dev/test extras
make setup

# Format code (ruff formatter)
make format

# Lint code (ruff lint)
make lint

# Run tests (pytest)
make test

Usage

Fill variables from a template and write KEY=value lines to a file:

# Install from PyPI
pip install fillenv

# Use the installed CLI (writes to .env or .env1, .env2, ...)
fillenv .env.template
# Or rely on default template path (".env.template" in CWD)
fillenv

# Alternatively via python -m
uv run python -m fillenv .env.template
# Or rely on default template path (".env.template" in CWD)
uv run python -m fillenv

# Uses same write behavior (.env, or .env1, .env2, ...)
uv run python -m fillenv

You can also import and call fillenv.cli.run(argv) from Python code.
