Synchronize your local environment from a secrets vault.

Just 1password so far.

Any functionality not indicated on the above support table is purely serendipitous.

Legend:

You can add it to your current project with

npm install @jjorissen52/env-vault

# optional alias (assuming GNU readlink)
alias ev="$(readlink -f ./node_modules/.bin/ev)"

Or you can download the latest binary, found in the GitHub releases.

Configuration is stored by default in $HOME/.config/ev.json. You can change the location like so:

export EV_CONFIG_DIR=~/.config/better-place.json

At a high level, you create "comparison configurations" where you provide a path to a template and a corresponding location to save the result environment file, and ev will populate your file.

These are descriptions of how to populate an env file. Any given comparison configuration should contain everything necessary to populate an environment file.

All comparison configuration options inherit from these when left unspecified.

Each vault has its own way of authenticating and thus its own set of defaults. Comparison configuration options inherit from these when left unspecified. Note that right now only the 1password vault type is supported.

Note: most examples below assume you have an alias or ev on your path.

# show the location where your `ev` config will be stored
yarn ev config locate # using yarn
npx ev config locate # using npm
ev config locate # alias or binary on path


# show your entire ev config
ev config show

# add or update an existing comparison configuration
ev config 1password set test4 \
  --record test.record \
  --address my-org \
  --email [email protected]

# show a specific comparison configuration
ev config show test4
#{
#  "vault_type": "1password",
#  "name": "test4",
#  "address": "my-org",
#  "email": "[email protected]",
#  "vault": "My Vault",
#  "record": "test.record",
#  "template_path": "<path>",
#  "env_file_path": "<path>"
#}

# set the default template and environment file locations
ev config defaults \
  --template ./envs/dev.env \
  --env .env

# set defaults for the 1password configurations
ev config 1password defaults \
  --vault "My Vault" \
  --address my-org \
  --email [email protected]

This project started from the template typescript-boilerplate, which is a fantastic asset. Thank you, metacris.
