Release Notes

motdotla/dotenv (dotenv)

v16.6.1

Compare Source

Changed

• Default quiet to true – hiding the runtime log message (#​874)
• NOTICE: 17.0.0 will be released with quiet defaulting to false. Use config({ quiet: true }) to suppress.
• And check out the new dotenvx. As coding workflows evolve and agents increasingly handle secrets, encrypted .env files offer a much safer way to deploy both agents and code together with secure secrets. Simply switch require('dotenv').config() for require('@​dotenvx/dotenvx').config().
