run your dev environment with docker ; so you don't have to install all your tools on your machine!

docker-alias

divenv setup

prerequisites:

• direnv (brew install direnv)
• realpath (brew install coreutils)
• copy .direnvrc to your home folder
• 1password cli

project setup

• create a file .envrc in your project root
• copy the direnv/alias/xxx.envrc contents for the tools you need

cat direnv/alias/node.envrc >>> .envrc
cat direnv/alias/terraform.envrc >>> .envrc

For security reasons, every change to .envrc requires you to approve those changes (you'll see it complain about it)

direnv allow

using the aliases

use it like you normally would

npm install
terraform plan
...

Tips

place your .envrc as close to your code as possible

do this

# good example
.
├── module_1
│   ├── code
│   │   └── .envrc  <<<<
│   └── infra
│       └── .envrc  <<<<
└── module_2
    ├── code
    │   └── .envrc  <<<<
    └── infra
        └── .envrc  <<<<

instead of this

# bad example
.
├── .envrc          <<<<
├── module_1
│   ├── code-js
│   └── infra
└── module_2
    ├── code-java
    └── infra

(legacy) shell setup as alternative to direnv setup

source shell/xxx.sh
