💡 Feature description
In config-rs, there's an option to define a separator
which allow users to structure their env vars. I think an example will illustrate better:
#[derive(Deserialize)]
struct Config {
database: Database
}
#[derive(Deserialize)]
struct Database {
name: String,
}
If we define a separator, let's say "__", we could create this Config
by setting DATABASE__NAME=foo
.
Would it be possible and desirable for envy
to include it?
Alternatives
It is possible to get the same behavior using the flatten
attribute from serde (as noticed in #15). The drawback is that it demands a good amount of boilerplate because we would have to serde's rename
every field in the nested struct if we wanted to use this separator idea.
