Usage

Syntax Highlighting

It just works. Open your .env files in VSCode, and they will now be syntax highlighted.


Auto-cloaking

It just works. Open your .env files in VSCode, and they will be auto-cloaked. Click the 'Toggle auto-cloaking' link at the top of your .env file to toggle it off. Feel safer sharing your screen!

Multiple .env file types supported.

  • .env.example
  • .env.development

  • .env.production
  • .env.vault
  • .env.me
  • .env.*
  • .flaskenv

Auto-completion

Start typing process.env. (or language specific env statement) and your cursor will be populated with auto-completion options directly from your .env file. Cool!

Multiple languages supported.

  • JavaScript/TypeScript/NodeJS
  • Ruby
  • Python
  • PHP
  • Go
  • Java
  • C#
  • Rust

In-code secret peeking

Hover your mouse over a process.env.SECRET_KEY or a ENV["SECRET_KEY"], and you will be able to peek at its value without having to open your .env file. Convenient!
