envtricks

envtricks (envtricks) is a small set of helpful commands to work with .env files.

This project features powerful manipulation with selectively copying fields from one file to another, generating .env.example's and primitive commands for getting and setting values of fields, which is useful for shell scripts.

If the destination file doesn't exist, it gets automatically created.
