Read, encrypt, or generate environment variables from .env file into an obfuscated Dart model.
Get started with these quick commands:
๐ฅ Add env_reader
to your pubspec.yaml
with a single line:
dart pub add env_reader
โจ Unlock the magic by activating the env_reader
CLI:
dart pub global activate env_reader
Now elevate your development experience with these straightforward steps:
Start by crafting your .env
file in the root directory of your project, right alongside your trusty pubspec.yaml
.
API_KEY=VYIUJ7tLdJFqrBesnOJEpkbceBB5GNz0t1aYgHxK3BMxbJOc/g==
DEBUG=true
PORT=8080
DATABASE_URL=postgresql://user:password@localhost:5432/mydb
Now, if you want to generate encrypted env file, run this command in your terminal:
env_reader --input=".env" --output="assets/env/" --key="MyOptionalSecretKey"
[!NOTE]
output:
.env successfully encrypted into assets/env/.env ๐
also if you want to generate dart model from this env file, use tihs:
env_reader --input-".env" --model="lib/src/env_model.dart" --null-safety
[!NOTE]
output:
.env successfully generated into lib/src/env_model.dart ๐
Load the env_reader instance:
import 'package:env_reader/env_reader.dart';
import 'package:flutter/services.dart';
await Env.load(
EnvStringLoader(await rootBundle.loadString('assets/env/.env')),
"MyOptionalSecretKey");
// Or you can load by creating your own `EnvReader` instance.
EnvReader production = EnvReader();
await production.load(
EnvStringLoader(await rootBundle.loadString('assets/env/.env')),
"MyOptionalSecretKey");
To get and read the value of your env:
import 'package:env_reader/env_reader.dart';
import 'package:my_package/src/env_model.dart';
String api = Env.read("API_KEY") ?? "Got'cha ๐";
bool debug = Env.read<bool>("DEBUG") ?? false;
// If you make your own instance, call it like this
String api = production.read("API_KEY") ?? "Got'cha ๐";
bool debug = production.read<bool>("DEBUG") ?? false;
Text(
text:
debug ? "๐คซ pssst, this is my api key y'all \n\n $api" : "Nothing to see here ๐คช",
);
// Or you can access the value directly from env generated model earlier
Text(
text:
EnvModel.debug ? "๐คซ pssst, this is my api key y'all \n\n ${EnvModel.apiKey}" : "Nothing to see here ๐คช",
);
Available commands:
Flag | Description |
---|---|
-i, --input (mandatory) | Input path of the .env file |
-o, --output | Output path for the encrypted .env file |
-s, --key | Secrey key for encryption & decryption |
--model | Generate dart model file to your desired file path |
--null-safety | Make the model null safety |
--[no-]obfuscate | Obfuscating generated values of model |
(defaults to on) | |
--[no-]pubspec | Insert asset path to pubspec.yaml |
(defaults to on) | |
--[no-]gitignore | Insert .env input & output file into .gitignore |
(defaults to on) | |
-h, --help | Print usage information |
Example usage:
env_reader -i ".env" -o "assets/env/" -s "MyOptionalSecretKey" --model="lib/src/env_model.dart" --null-safety
