Runtime injection

Your app reads environment variables. getmyenv sits underneath your process. No SDK, no code changes.

Using run

npx getmyenv run starts your command as a child process with secrets injected as environment variables. Your code does not import any getmyenv library.

# Node
npx getmyenv run -- npm start

# Python
npx getmyenv run -- python app.py

# Ruby
npx getmyenv run -- ruby app.rb

# Rust
npx getmyenv run -- cargo run

# Go
npx getmyenv run -- go run .

# PHP
npx getmyenv run -- php app.php

PM2 compatibility

PM2 works without changes. Wrap your PM2 command with run:

npx getmyenv run pm2 start ecosystem.config.js

No code changes

Your application code stays the same. Reading environment variables - for example process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY, os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"], or ENV["OPENAI_API_KEY"] - still works.
