Load your .env file and replace 'process.env.MY_VARIABLE' with the value you set.

babel-plugin-inline-dotenv

Load your .env file and replace process.env.MY_VARIABLE with the value you set.

tl;dr

It actually replaces process.env.MY_VARIABLE with:

process && process.env && process.env.MY_VARIABLE || 'value assigned to variable in dotenv'

This way, if the value is available at runtime it will be used instead.

Installation

$ npm install babel-plugin-inline-dotenv

Usage

Via .babelrc (Recommended)

.babelrc

  }]]
}

  plugins: ["inline-dotenv"]
});
