SvDesignTi Vault CLI

The SvDesignTi Vault CLI allows you to connect to your Envault server and sync its credentials to your local .env file.

Usage

To use the SvDesignTi Vault CLI, you must have Node.js installed on your computer.

On your dashboard, you will find an initialization command for each environment, which you can run to establish a connection to your server, and pull your variables. This command only needs to be run the first time you connect your .env. An example initialization command:

npx envault vault.envault.dev 84632 iCNaGGLou6v0mRas

After you've run your environment initialization command for the first time, you can pull your .env again easily:

npx envault

Options

By default, Envault will not pull variables that are not already present in your .env file. To enable this behaviour, use the --constructive flag:

npx envault --constructive

You are able to customise the name of your .env file using the --filename flag:

npx envault vault.envault.dev 84632 iCNaGGLou6v0mRas --filename=.myenv

The Envault CLI will sometimes prompt you to confirm your actions, especially those made in constructive mode. To bypass these prompts, use the --force flag:

npx envault --force

Handling multiple environments

You can store multiple environments instead of overwriting when authenticating a new environment.

You are able to sync a specific .env by providing the server and environment ID. This is especially useful if you have multiple .env files. For example:

npx envault envault.server.test 1 llT8J6tEDbtJgSln 
npx envault envault.server.test 2 BXYtZdNkQjtWSqE6

Now, you may sync each environment:

npx envault 												// Will still sync .env from "1"
npx envault envault.server.test 2 --filename=.env.settings  // Will sync .env.settings from "2"

If no server and environment provided it will default to the first environment that was added.
