I have the following in my workspace settings.json
file:
"terminal.integrated.env.osx": {
"AUTH_TOKEN": "secret_XXXXXX"
}
However, when trying to pass this via a launch command (defined in launch.json
):
{
"name": "Example: Query",
"type": "python",
"request": "launch",
"program": "${workspaceFolder}/examples/query.py",
"args": [ "${env:AUTH_TOKEN}" ]
}
The resulting command contains an empty string for the argument:
/usr/bin/env /.../.venv/bin/python /.../debugpy/launcher 58644 -- /.../examples/query.py ""
However, if I print the variable from within the script, it is set properly.
I believe there is an ordering issue, such that the launch.json
commands are generated before the terminal environment is set up - resulting in empty vars. Any ideas how to propagate the env value to the command line?
Update: I have also tried using a .env
file for the variables (rather than settings.json
), but the result is the same.
