Capistrano::env-config

Loads a .env file in the same directory as your Capfile. Entries are automatically loaded as environment variables and can be accessed in Capistrano as ENV['VAR'] e.g.

# .env
GITHUB_TOKEN='foobar'


# deploy.rb

set :scm, 'git'
set :branch, 'master'
set :repo_url, 'https://github.com/rjocoleman/capistrano-env-config'
set :git_http_username, ENV['GITHUB_TOKEN']

Also supports stages e.g. .env.staging or .env.production. .env files are loaded sequentially with the current stage first i.e. .env.staging first and then .env. If variables exist in both the stage and generic env file only the first is loaded (the stage) and not overwritten.

Compatible with Capistrano 3+ only.
