jesse's super simple .env file handler

if you don't like setting your env variables in your rc files, you can use this.

in the root of your nvim config, create a .env file and add your environment variables.

if no .env file is found, this plugin will throw early.

lazy config

return {
    {
        "jesses-code-adventures/dotenv.nvim",
        config = function()
            require("dotenv").setup()
        end,
        lazy=false
    }
}

you may wish to provide a custom .env file path - you can use the env_path option to do this.

return {
    {
        "jesses-code-adventures/dotenv.nvim",
        config = function()
            require("dotenv").setup({
                env_path="~/.config/nvim/.custom_env_file" -- this could be any file path
            })
        end,
        lazy=false
    }
}

you can verify your variables are now available by echoing them as a neovim cmd.

:echo $MY_ENV_VAR

formatting

if your .env file is incorrectly formatted, this plugin will throw early.

for example, this file will not work.

OPENAI_API_KEY=asdf=asdflj;

nor will this file.

OPENAI_API_KEY
