Autoenv: Directory-based Environments

Magic per-project shell environments. Very pretentious.

What is it?

If a directory contains a .env file, it will automatically be excecuted when you cd into it.

This is great for...

Foreman env files are completely compatible.

You can also nest envs within eachother. How awesome is that!?

Follow the white rabbit:

$ touch project/.env
$ echo "echo 'woah'" > project/.env
$ cd project
woah

Install it easily:

$ brew install autoenv

If you're on Linux, follow these simple steps:

$ git clone git://github.com/kennethreitz/autoenv.git ~/.autoenv
$ echo 'source ~/.autoenv/activate.sh' >> ~/.bashrc

Autoenv overrides cd. If you already do this, invoke autoenv_init within your custom cd after sourcing activate.sh.

Install the test runner:

$ make
gem install dtf --version 0.1.2
Successfully installed dtf-0.1.2

Test:

$ make test
dtf tests/*
