# Why this code?
# 🚗 env-auto
This is a very simple and small project that I created to save some time when working on web servers hosted on Heroku.
I'm a big fan of the [Heroku Button](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-button), because it allows me to create a project that's deployable by anyone on my team, with detailed instructions on how to set up all of the environment variables, thanks to the `app.json` file.

Locally, we use Foreman to load the local environment variables from the `.env` file, and projects can sometimes end up with lots of variables.

With this tiny app, running it in a folder that has the `app.json` file will automatically create a `.env` for you. The only thing you need to do is to set the right data to those variables.
I created this tiny app to automatically generate the `.env` file while making sure the file won't excede the 80 char ruler mark.
If your `app.json` file has set default values, env-auto will automatically populate the vriables. Anything else will require you to fill in the data.
