Python-Dotenv
Load environment variables from .env files into Python apps
python-dotenv is a Python utility that reads key-value pairs from a .env file and sets them as environment variables. This is especially useful for managing configuration values, secrets, or settings outside of source code, in line with the 12-factor app principles. Commonly used in Flask, Django, and other frameworks, it helps maintain clean and secure codebases across environments like development, staging, and production.
