tox-envfile 0.0.3

Load env files in your tox envs.

tox-envfile

Load env files in your tox envs.

For installation instructions see INSTALL.md.

For how to set up a tox-envfile development environment see HACKING.md.

tox-envfile reads environment variables from a file named .devdata.env in the same directory as your tox.ini file and adds them to the environment that tox runs your commands in.

This is a pretty dumb plugin for now: all of the environment variables in .devdata.env will be loaded into the environment for every tox env that you run, unconditionally. Any existing envvars with conflicting names will be overwritten. Only a single environment file is supported and it must be named .devdata.env.

env File Format

python-dotenv is used for the env file parsing.

The .devdata.env file should be an env file with contents that look like this:

# a comment that will be ignored.
REDIS_ADDRESS=localhost:6379
MEANING_OF_LIFE=42
MULTILINE_VAR="hello\nworld"

Or like this:

export S3_BUCKET=YOURS3BUCKET
export SECRET_KEY=YOURSECRETKEYGOESHERE

POSIX variable expansion works, using variables from the environment or from earlier lines in the env file:

CONFIG_PATH=${HOME}/.config/foo
DOMAIN=example.org
EMAIL=admin@${DOMAIN}
