    Project mention: Building RESTful API with Hexagonal Architecture in Go | dev.to | 2023-09-27

    Instead of directly accessing environment variables with os.Getenv(), integrating a configuration handler like viper might make it maintainable.

  • PHP Dotenv

    Loads environment variables from `.env` to `getenv()`, `$_ENV` and `$_SERVER` automagically.

    Project mention: Question Regarding Environment Variables | /r/PHPhelp | 2023-04-26

    Recently, I jumped to reading on the documentation of the function putenv() and define() and the array $_ENV to understand the different between all. Also, I looked at the library phpdotenv and how it handles environment variables since its the standard approach to go with when dealing with environment variables in PHP.

  • chezmoi

    Project mention: Sharing neovim settup | /r/neovim | 2023-09-22

  • Symfony VarDumper

  • craco

    Create React App Configuration Override, an easy and comprehensible configuration layer for Create React App.

    Project mention: Build a web editor with react-monaco-editor | dev.to | 2023-05-04

    Ejecting a React app is a bad idea because our application will lose all the React configurations and will not benefit from the CRA updates. Some solutions for ejecting our application include using packages like react-app-rewired or rewire. You can also use CRACO to eject your React application, but it needs you to install additional plugins.

  • jsonnet

    Jsonnet - The data templating language

    Project mention: What Is Wrong with TOML? | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-09-13

    Maybe you'd like jsonnet: https://jsonnet.org/

    I find it particularly useful for configurations that often have repeated boilerplate, like ansible playbooks or deploying a bunch of "similar-but" services to kubernetes (with https://tanka.dev).

    Dhall is also quite interesting, with some tradeoffs: https://dhall-lang.org/

    A few years ago I did a small comparison by re-implementing one of my simpler ansible playbooks: https://github.com/retzkek/ansible-dhall-jsonnet

    Project mention: How do you handle Api keys and tokens? | /r/PHP | 2023-02-17

    Keys and tokens in .env.local per environment (in .gitignore obviously), with a placeholder in the .env. I use https://github.com/symfony/dotenv

  • ini

    Package ini provides INI file read and write functionality in Go

    Project mention: Convert any to string or alternative to any | /r/golang | 2022-12-02

    I am very new to golang and am trying to write a Program that uses INI Cobfiguration Files. The library that I am using, has built in functions to output the Key as a certain type (string, int, bool, etc). However as I will be accessing several different Keys of different types, I wrote a wrapper that takes the section and key name and the output type, passes that to the libraries functions and outputs the result as the any type. While trying to pass the output into another function that requires a string, it throws the error that it is unable to convert any to string as string requires type assertion. I couldn't find much about the any type, but it seems luke i will either need to redesign my wrapper function, use an alternative to any or find a way to convert any to string or []byte at least.
