Project description

speckenv because a speck is a synonym for a dot and because Speck is awesome.

Usage

Read the settings contained in ./.env into os.environ:

from speckenv import read_speckenv

read_speckenv()

Note that read_speckenv uses os.environ.setdefault to set new values, which means that if a particular key exists more than once in the file the first value is retained, not the last.

If the file is named differently or resides in a different path, pass the full path as first argument to read_speckenv.

Read individual values:

from speckenv import env

# Standard usage:
SETTING1 = env("SETTING1")

# Fallback, if SETTING2 is not set (truthyness doesn't matter):
SETTING2 = env("SETTING2", default="bla")

# Fail hard if missing:
SETTING3 = env("SETTING3", required=True)

# Coerce the value before returning it (coercion is also applied to
# default values):
SETTING4 = env("SETTING4", coerce=bool)

The following values are evaluated as Python literals:

BOOL=True  # And False, None etc.
NUMBER=42
SWEET_HOME=["localhost", "127.0.0.1"]

Additional whitespace around the equals sign is supported. Empty lines and lines starting with a # are ignored:

THIS_IS_IGNORED
# COMMENTED_OUT=VALUE
THIS = WORKS

NOTE! You should treat everything except for the first argument to both env and read_speckenv as keyword-only. Since speckenv still supports Python 2 this isn’t enforced by the code right now.

It may be useful to use a mapping separate from os.environ. This is easily possible by overriding the default mapping argument:

from speckenv import env, read_speckenv

mapping = {}
read_speckenv("file_with_variables.env", mapping=mapping)
setting1 = env("SETTING1", mapping=mapping)
