solugen.env-manager 0.1.0

A Python library to manage environment variables

Environment Setup for env_manager

To properly use this library, ensure your project contains the following files in its root directory:

1. .env.dev

   • Used for development environment variables.
   • Important: Add this file to .gitignore to avoid committing sensitive data.

2. .env.prod

   • Used for production environment variables.
   • Important: Add this file to .gitignore to avoid committing sensitive data.

3. .env.example

   • A template file that details the required environment variables and their structure.
   • Do not add this file to .gitignore, as it serves as documentation for other developers, and more importantly - it's necessary for the funtionality, as it loads the key names.

Key Guidelines

• Never use quotes (" or ') in environment variable values. This ensures compatibility and avoids parsing issues.

Running in Development Mode

To run the application in development mode:

• Explicitly set the environment variable FLASK_DEV_ENV.
• The value of FLASK_DEV_ENV can be arbitrary (any value is acceptable).

export FLASK_DEV_ENV=true
