export API_KEY=your_api_key
export DATABASE_URL=postgresql://localhost/mydb

.env files

envdo searches for .env files in the following directories in order of priority:

1. Current directory
2. $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/envdo (typically ~/.config/envdo)

Basic .env file format

# Comments are supported
API_KEY=your_api_key
DATABASE_URL=postgresql://localhost/mydb

# Quoted values are supported
SECRET="my secret value"
ANOTHER_SECRET='another secret'

Profile-based .env files

When using the --profile option, envdo looks for .env.{profile} files:

$ envdo --profile production -- node app.js
# Loads .env.production
