NAME
direnv-stdlib - functions for the .envrc
SYNOPSIS
direnv stdlib
DESCRIPTION
Outputs a bash script called the stdlib. The following commands are included in that script and loaded in the context of an .envrc. In addition, it also loads the file in /.direnvrc if it exists.
STDLIB
has <command> Returns 0 if the command is available. Returns 1 otherwise. It can be a binary in the PATH or a shell function. Example: if has curl; then echo "Yes we do" fi expand_path <rel_path> [<relative_to>] Outputs the absolute path of rel_path relative to relative_to or the current directory. Example: cd /usr/local/games expand_path ../foo # output: /usr/local/foo dotenv [<dotenv_path>] Loads a ".env" file into the current environment user_rel_path <abs_path> Transforms an absolute path abs_path into a user-relative path if possible. Example: echo $HOME # output: /home/user user_rel_path /home/user/my/project # output: /my/project user_rel_path /usr/local/lib # output: /usr/local/lib find_up <filename> Outputs the path of filename when searched from the current directory up to /. Returns 1 if the file has not been found. Example: cd /usr/local/my mkdir -p project/foo touch bar cd project/foo find_up bar # output: /usr/local/my/bar source_env <file_or_dir_path> Loads another .envrc either by specifying its path or filename. NOTE: the other .envrc is not checked by the security framework. source_up [<filename>] Loads another .envrc if found when searching from the parent directory up to /. NOTE: the other .envrc is not checked by the security framework. direnv_load [<command-generating-dump-output>] Applies the environment generated by running argv as a command. This is useful for adopting the environment of a child process - cause that process to run "direnv dump" and then wrap the results with direnv_load. Example: direnv_load opam-env exec -- direnv dump PATH_add <path> Prepends the expanded path to the PATH environment variable. It prevents a common mistake where PATH is replaced by only the new path. Example: pwd # output: /home/user/my/project PATH_add bin echo $PATH # output: /home/user/my/project/bin:/usr/bin:/bin MANPATH_add <path> Prepends the expanded path to the MANPATH environment variable. It takes care of man-specific heuritic. path_add <varname> <path> Works like PATH_add except that it's for an arbitrary varname. load_prefix <prefix_path> Expands some common path variables for the given prefix_path prefix. This is useful if you installed something in the prefix_path using ./configure --prefix=$prefix_path make install and want to use it in the project. Variables set: CPATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH LIBRARY_PATH MANPATH PATH PKG_CONFIG_PATH Example: ./configure --prefix=$HOME/rubies/ruby-1.9.3 make make install # Then in the .envrc load_prefix /rubies/ruby-1.9.3 layout <type> A semantic dispatch used to describe common project layouts. layout go Sets the GOPATH environment variable to the current directory. layout node Adds "$PWD/node_modules/.bin" to the PATH environment variable. layout perl Setup environment variables required by perl's local::lib See ⟨http://search.cpan.org/dist/local-lib/lib/local/lib.pm⟩ for more details. layout python [<python_exe>] Creates and loads a virtualenv environment under $PWD/.direnv/python-$python_version. This forces the installation of any egg into the project's sub-folder. It's possible to specify the python executable if you want to use different versions of python (eg: layout python python3). Note that previously virtualenv was located under $PWD/.direnv/virtualenv and will be re-used by direnv if it exists. layout python3 A shortcut for layout python python3 layout ruby Sets the GEM_HOME environment variable to $PWD/.direnv/ruby/RUBY_VERSION. This forces the installation of any gems into the project's sub-folder. If you're using bundler it will create wrapper programs that can be invoked directly instead of using the bundle exec prefix. use <program_name> [<version>] A semantic command dispatch intended for loading external dependencies into the environment. Example: use_ruby() { echo "Ruby $1" } use ruby 1.9.3 # output: Ruby 1.9.3 use rbenv Loads rbenv which add the ruby wrappers available on the PATH. use nix [...] Load environment variables from nix-shell. If you have a default.nix or shell.nix these will be used by default, but you can also specify packages directly (e.g use nix -p ocaml). See ⟨http://nixos.org/nix/manual/#sec-nix-shell⟩ use guix [...] Load environment variables from guix environment. Any arguments given will be passed to guix environment. For example, use guix hello would setup an environment with the dependencies of the hello package. To create an environment including hello, the --ad-hoc flag is used use guix --ad-hoc hello. Other options include --load which allows loading an environment from a file. See ⟨https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Invoking-guix-environment.html⟩ rvm [...] Should work just like in the shell if you have rvm installed. use node [<version>]: Loads NodeJS version from a .node-version or .nvmrc file. If you specify a partial NodeJS version (i.e. 4.2), a fuzzy match is performed and the highest matching version installed is selected. Example (.envrc): set -e use node Example (.node-version): 4.2 use node <version> Loads specified NodeJS version. Example (.envrc): set -e use node 4.2.2 watch_file <path> [<path> ...] Adds each file to direnv's watch-list. If the file changes direnv will reload the environment on the next prompt. Example (.envrc): watch_file Gemfile direnv_version <version_at_least> Checks that the direnv version is at least old as version_at_least. This can be useful when sharing an .envrc and to make sure that the users are up to date.
