This is a plugin for nenv that lets you set global and project-specific environment variables before spawning Ruby processes.

nenv-vars is based on rbenv-vars by Sam Stephenson.

Make sure you have the latest version of nenv, then run:

git clone https://github.com/madumlao/nenv-vars.git $(rbenv root)/plugins/nenv-vars

Define environment variables in an .nenv-vars file in your project, one variable per line, in the format VAR=value. For example:

CLASSPATH=src:lib/foo.jar

You can perform variable substitution with the traditional $ syntax. For example, to append to CLASSPATH:

CLASSPATH=src:lib/foo.jar:$CLASSPATH

You may also have conditional variable assignments, such that a variable will only be set if it is not already defined or is blank:

JAVA_OPTS?=-server -Xmx768m -Xms768m -Xmn128m -Xss20m

In the above case, JAVA_OPTS will only be set if $JAVA_OPTS is currently empty (i.e., if [ -z "$JAVA_OPTS" ] is true).

Spaces are allowed in values; quoting is not necessary. Expansion and command substitution are not allowed. Lines beginning with # or any lines not in the format VAR=value will be ignored.

Variables specified in the ~/.nenv/vars file will be set first. Then variables specified in .nenv-vars files in any parent directories of the current directory will be set. Variables from the .nenv-vars file in the current directory are set last.

Use the nenv vars command to print all environment variables in the order they'll be set.
