Sendenv, a CLI tool to share environment variables

Hacker News

My weekend project sendenv is a CLI tool that lets you share environment variables securely with someone else. It is built on top of magic-wormhole which allows for safe, account-free data transfer. When you send variables using sendenv, it creates a one-time code. You give this code to the person who needs the variables. They use the code in their shell to load the variables. This is handy for quickly setting up new team members or copying local environment variables to another system. Its currently in alpha obviously, but the core functionality works (I have tested sending vaults from a Macbook Air M1 to a ubuntu ec2 instance). I have a lot of follow up ideas to make this better, but wanted the community's feedback before I invest more time on this. Thanks for reading!
