Integration

secenv alone is an useful tool, but it becomes even better when you integrates it with other tools.

direnv

direnv is an utility tool to source a special file when you navigate in a given directory. It can be useful to switch automatically the context that is generated. By example, one can select the current environment, and generate a context based on it:

.envrc
source .credentials

echo "Which context to use?"
select env in $(secenv contexts); do
eval $(secenv context "$env")
break
done
.credentials
export SECENV_my_aws_store_access_key_id='...'
export SECENV_my_aws_store_secret_access_key='...'

CI/CD

Isn't is a pain to keep the secrets consistent between the different environments and the CI/CD?

secenv can solve this issue by furnishing the environment variables directly from the secret manager and by-passing the different CI/CD providers.
