CHANGELOG

Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file. See standard-version for commit guidelines.

Unreleased

16.0.0 (2022-02-02)

Added

• Breaking: Backtick support 🎉 (template literals). If you had values containing the backtick character, please quote those values with either single or double quotes.

15.0.1 (2022-02-02)

Changed

• Properly parse empty single or double quoted values 🐞 (#614)

15.0.0 (2022-01-31)

v15.0.0 is a major new release with some important breaking changes.

Added

• Breaking: Multiline parsing support (just works. no need for the flag.)

Changed

• Breaking: # marks the beginning of a comment (UNLESS the value is wrapped in quotes. Please update your .env files to wrap in quotes any values containing #. For example: SECRET_HASH="something-with-a-#-hash").

..Understandably, (as some teams have noted) this is tedious to do across the entire team. To make it less tedious, we recommend using dotenv cli going forward. It's an optional plugin that will keep your .env files in sync between machines, environments, or team members.

Removed

• Breaking: Remove multiline option (just works out of the box now. no need for the flag.)
