Good day everyone... does anyone know if there is a way for the

pulumi cli

to proceess a

.env

file? I want to simulate what our deployment pipelines do by passing in secrets as Env Var and I don't want to make a bunch of actual Env Var in my shell session.

is there any reason you can't just load the file from your code?

npm install dotenv
import * as dotenv from 'dotenv';
dotenv.config();

etc?

That totally worked. Thank you. I guess I was hoping that the

pulumi cli

would do that itself.

the pulumi CLI is just interpreting the code and passing it to the the language interpreter, so anything you put i the code is being handled by the CLI 🙂
