Mapping environment variables can be a bit of a pain.

Now you can replace this boilerplate:

ZENDESK_URL = os.environ['ZENDESK_URL']
ZENDESK_USER = os.environ['ZENDESK_USER']
ZENDESK_PASS = os.environ['ZENDESK_PASS']
ZENDESK_VIEW = os.environ['ZENDESK_VIEW']

With a simple call:

import env

>>> zendesk = env.prefix('zendesk_')
>>> zendesk
{'user': ..., 'pass': ..., 'url': ..., 'view': ...}

Or have a bit more control:

>>> env.map(user='zendesk_user')
{'user': ...}

Installation is easy with pip:

$ pip install env
