Using environment variables
We currently recommend using dotenv-cli
as the simplest way to bring your environment variables into your development tasks.
We're actively looking forward to improving the developer experience and ergonomics for your environment variables in a future release of Turborepo.
With local turbo
-
Place all of your variables into the root of your monorepo as a
.env
file. -
Install
dotenv-cli
into the root of your repository.
{
"devDependencies": {
+ "dotenv-cli": "latest"
}
}
- Adjust your scripts to inject the environment variables into the
turbo
command.
{
"scripts": {
"dev": "dotenv -- turbo dev"
}
}
With global turbo
If you're using turbo
globally, you'll also need to install dotenv-cli
globally so you can put dotenv --
in front of the turbo
command in your terminal.
