Crate stupid_simple_dotenv

Reads key-value pairs from a file, such as an .env file, and makes them easily accessible as environment variables. This crate provides a simpler and smaller alternative to dotenv, which is no longer maintained.

Example

use stupid_simple_dotenv::to_env;

fn main() ->Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
   match to_env(){
      Ok(_) => println!("Success reading .env"),
      Err(e) if e.kind == "io" =>{
        println!("IO-Error better not ignore! {}", e);
        // you can return the Error: return Err(e.into());
      },
      Err(e) if e.kind == "LinesError" => {
        println!("Errors in some lines of .env: {}", e);
      },
      Err(e) => {
        println!("Error {}", e);
        // You can return the Error return Err(e.into());
      },
   };
   let user = std::env::var("USER")?; // if USER is not set, this will return an error
   println!("USER: {}", user);
   Ok(())
}
