Utility for loading environment variables from a project's configs/ directory.
The module first finds your application's root directory and then attempts to
load environment variables found in the configs/.env file. Then, if a specificNODE_ENV exists in the environment at run time it additionally loads variables
from the configs/.env.${NODE_ENV} file. Note: This module will not work if
installed globally [npm install loadenv -g].
Suppose you have your project setup with the following configs:
```
configs/.env
A=1
B=2
configs/.env.test
B=3
C=4
If you launched your application without a NODE_ENV variable set, and called
into the module like so:
`js`
require('loadenv')();
then the resulting process.env would now contain the following:
``
process.env.A === 1
process.env.B === 2
If instead, you launched your application with NODE_ENV=test then theprocess.env would include the following:
``
process.env.A === 1
process.env.B === 3
process.env.C === 4
The module uses debug to log the resulting environment after it has been loaded
from the configs/ files. By default it uses debug('loadenv') but you can
override this by calling into the module with a custom name, like so:
`js
// Pass an options object:
require('loadenv')({
debugName: 'myapp:env'
});
// Or just use a string if you only need the debug name
require('loadenv')('myapp:env') ;
`
If you were to do so then the module would use debug('myapp:env') to log the
resulting output.
No matter how many times you include the module, the environment is only loaded
once. So feel free to sprinkle loads wherever they might be needed to make your
code as modular as possible.
