dotenv-expand

Dotenv-expand adds variable expansion on top of dotenv. If you find yourself needing to expand environment variables already existing on your machine, then dotenv-expand is your tool.

Install

bash npm install dotenv --save npm install dotenv-expand --save

Usage

As early as possible in your application, require dotenv and dotenv-expand, and wrap dotenv-expand around dotenv.

```js var dotenv = require('dotenv') var dotenvExpand = require('dotenv-expand')

var myEnv = dotenv.config() dotenvExpand(myEnv) ```

See test/.env for examples of variable expansion in your .env file.
