API

There is an exposed node API if that's more your thing. The CLI is a yargs-based wrapper around this function.

runWithEnvVars(options: RunWithEnvVarsOptions): Promise<void>

import { runWithEnvVars } from 'serverless-env-vars'

runWithEnvVars({ cmd:'npm', args: ['run', 'build'] }).catch(error => {
  console.error(error)
  process.exitCode = 1
})

export type RunWithEnvVarsOptions = {
  readonly cmd: string
  readonly args: readonly string[]

  readonly watch?: boolean
  readonly log?: 'off' | 'sls' | 'all'
  readonly stage?: string
}

getConfiguration(): Promise<{ configurationPath: string, configuration: Config }>

Retrieve the configuration of your local serverless setup. If a configuration can not be found or parsed this will throw.

import { getConfiguration } from 'serverless-env-vars'

async function example() {
  const { configurationPath, configuration } = await getConfiguration()
}

createServerless({ stage?: string }): Promise<Serverless>

Easily create a Serverless instance.

import { createServerless } from 'serverless-env-vars'

async function example() {
  // Stage is optional
  // Stage can be configured via the environment variable STAGE
  const serverless = await createServerless({ stage: 'prod' }) 
}

getEnvVars({ stage?: string }): Promise<Record<string, string>>

Get environment variables for your local serverless configuration.

import { getEnvVars } from 'serverless-env-vars'

async function example() {
  // Stage is optional
  // Stage can be configured via the environment variable STAGE
  const envVars = await getEnvVars({ stage: 'prod' }) 
}

setEnvVars(envVars: Record<string, string>): void

Set the environment variables within process.env
