From the same people that pioneered dotenv.

Dotenv Vault securely syncs secrets and app configuration across your machines, environments, and team members. Stop sharing .env files over insecure channels like Slack and email.

Learn more at dotenv.org.

Usage is easy! Run the command:

$ npx dotenv-vault new

Follow those instructions and then run:

$ npx dotenv-vault push

And if you need to pull changes that another teammate made, run:

$ npx dotenv-vault pull

That's it!

Read our security statement.

Create your project at Dotenv Vault.

Example:

$ dotenv-vault new

Push your .env file securely to Dotenv Vault

Example:

$ dotenv-vault push
# pushes local .env to remote development

Set input filename. Defaults to .env.

Example:

$ dotenv-vault push .env.development
# pushes .env.development to remote development environment

⚠️ The push command ONLY pushes to development currently. It is not like the pull command that can pull from different environments. For example, if you run $ npx dotenv-vault push .env.production that will actually push your local .env.production file to development. (Check back soon for push support that can push to any environment.)

Directly pass your DOTENV_ME value to the command line, instead of reading from a .env.me file.

Examples:

$ dotenv-vault push .env.development --dotenvMe=me_1234
# pushes local .env.development to remote development

Pulls your development|staging|ci|production environment(s) to your machine.

Example:

$ dotenv-vault pull
# pulls remote development envs to .env

Pull .env.ci, .env.staging, and .env.production

Example:

$ dotenv-vault pull staging
# pulls remote staging envs to .env.staging

Set output filename. Defaults to .env for development and .env.{environment} for other environments

Example:

$ dotenv-vault pull production .env
# pulls remote production envs to .env

Directly pass your DOTENV_ME value to the command line, instead of reading from a .env.me file.

Examples:

$ dotenv-vault pull staging --dotenvMe=me_1234
# pulls remote staging envs to .env.staging

$ dotenv-vault pull production .env --dotenvMe=me_1234
# pulls remote production envs to .env
