+# loadenv
+
+Loads environment files before running a command without polluting your environment
+
+## Source code
+
+You can find the source code here: [git.milar.in](https://git.milar.in/milarin/loadenv)
+
+## Installation
+
+If you have Go installed, you can simply go install the program: `go install git.milar.in/milarin/loadenv@latest`
+
+There are pre-compiled executables for various platforms on the [repository](https://git.milar.in/milarin/loadenv/releases).
+
+## License
+
+Distributed under the MIT License. See [LICENSE.md](https://git.milar.in/milarin/loadenv/src/branch/main/LICENSE.md)
+
+## Usage
+
+`loadenv` loads the environment file provided via `-f` into the environment and runs the command provided after the arguments.
+If no file is provided, `.env` is used by default.
+If no command is provided, `loadenv` prints all environment variables to stdout.
+
+---
+
+The variables will only be available to the given command. They will be deleted after the command exits.
+`loadenv` can be useful when working with programs which heavily use environment variables.
+
+```sh
+$ cat .env
+# production server configuration
+DATABASE_HOST=prod-server.com
+DATABASE_USER=milarin
+DATABASE_PASS=my-super-secure-password
+
+$ # show the 3 last added env variables
+$ loadenv | tail -n 3
+DATABASE_HOST=prod-server.com
+DATABASE_USER=milarin
+DATABASE_PASS=my-super-secure-password
+
+$ cat dev.env
+# development server configuration
+DATABASE_HOST=dev-server.com
+DATABASE_USER=milarin
+DATABASE_PASS=my-super-secure-password
+
+$ # load dev.env into environment and run the command env. show last 3 lines
+$ loadenv -f dev.env env | tail -n 3
+DATABASE_HOST=dev-server.com
+DATABASE_USER=milarin
+DATABASE_PASS=my-super-secure-password
+```
+
+environment variables in that file will be expanded:
+
+```sh
+$ env | grep USER # current value of $USER
+USER=milarin
+
+$ cat .env
+# expand $USER reference
+USERNAME=$USER
+
+$ loadenv | tail -n 1
+USERNAME=milarin
+```
