How to use environment variables in hurl files?

option 1

Explicitly by prefixing your variables with env

for example

GET {{env.url}}

We will use another option (suggested by @tbolon in #290)

Variables in Hurl will be set by default from environment variables HURL_xxx.

$ echo 'GET {{url}}' | hurl 
error: Undefined Variable
  --> -:1:7
   |
 1 | GET {{url}}
   |       ^^^ You must set the variable url
   |

$ export HURL_url=http://google.com
$ echo 'GET {{url}}' | hurl 
<HTML><HEAD><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8">
<TITLE>301 Moved</TITLE></HEAD><BODY>
<H1>301 Moved</H1>
The document has moved
<A HREF="http://www.google.com/">here</A>.
</BODY></HTML>

And they can be overriden by the the command-line option --variable.

$ echo 'GET {{url}}' | hurl --variable "url=toto" 
error: Http Connection
  --> -:1:5
   |
 1 | GET {{url}}
   |     ^^^^^^^ (6) Could not resolve host: toto
   |

This is similar to setting the proxy from environment variable http_proxy or command-line option --proxy.
