all-repos-envvar

Source Code: https://github.com/browniebroke/all-repos-envvar

An all-repos extension to read values from environment variables.

[!IMPORTANT] As of all-repos v1.25, you may not need this package, see section below

Installation

Install this via pip (or your favourite package manager):

pip install all-repos-envvar

Usage

This library should be installed alongside all-repos so that it's findable at import time. It provides a custom source and push to get the GitHub API key from an environment variable GITHUB_API_KEY (reading from and .env file is also supported), allowing you to omit it from the config:

{
  "output_dir": "output",
  "source": "all_repos_envvar.source",
  "source_settings": {
    "username": "browniebroke"
  },
  "push": "all_repos_envvar.push",
  "push_settings": {
    "username": "browniebroke"
  }
}

The source module extends all_repos.source.github and the push module extends all_repos.push.github_pull_request.

Why

I wanted this feature, but at the time, it looked like it would never be implemented in the main repo, hence this little extension. Since then, the author of all-repos apparently changed their mind and support for reading from environment variable was added in early 2023, and it's now included since release v1.25.0.

The only extra feature that this package provides is to read from .env file, but this can be achieved by more general solutions like direnv.
