varlock

So native .env loading is cool, but if you’re looking for not just an alternative, but an upgrade, you might like varlock.dev

varlock

you might like varlock.dev - there is as 1pass plugin, so you can have a full schema (with validation and docs!) and then set it via `fly secrets import < (varlock load --format env)`

Option to connect to 1password desktop application - for auth and local data Β· Issue #111 Β· 1Password/onepassword-sdk-js Use Case I am building developer tools, and for local development, I'd like to be able to use the SDK without a service account token, and instead rely on the local 1password application. This is s...

Hoping they will add the ability to use the local app's cache. Not just for when you are offline, but also to reduce latency and rate limits.

I opened this issue - github.com/1Password/on... which is specifically about the JS sdk.

We are building some nice tooling on top of 1pass at varlock.dev

For sure :) we’ll be adding a plugin system soon that introduces custom functions to interact with different providers.

Devs are leaking sensitive api keys to AI coding assistants every day without realizing it. We are soon launching some encryption helpers to get these keys out of plaintext and totally solve that problem.

Plus our guardrails (leak detection) helps devs using AI move quickly w/ more safety.

πŸ”₯ My friends at DMNO have a new devtool: varlock.

It’s a drop-in replacement for dotenv, and adds a bunch of cool stuff like validation and type safety. It stores the secrets themselves in password managers or encrypted vaults.

The landing page also has a very cool RPG vibe πŸ˜„

We recently launched varlock.dev. Similar to DMNO but built on top of the .env files you're already using.

The early feedback has been really positive.

Check it out, ⭐ star us on GitHub and let us know what you think!

A developer productivity tooling platform. | moonrepo From build to deploy, moonrepo is a better way to manage codebases, save developer time, and boost your business.

Also, if you haven't already, check out moonrepo.dev - I found it does a great job of fixing some of the rough edges of turborepo.

Looks neat! Do you have any stated goals of how you want it to be different than existing tools?

Turborepo does the cli ui thing with multiple tabs. it's... fine.

Seems like moving it into a web browser would probably gives more opportunity to build a much better DX. Have been contemplating building that for quite a while...

This looks fun! Will apply shortly for dmno.dev :)

Thanks for the mention :D

dmno.dev is (in my humble and very biased opinion) the best way to deal with config in all of your projects, regardless what your stack looks like.

Not only does it give you more confidence, but it lets you refactor the inner workings of things without wasting time fixing tests!

FUN :)

idea for the keyboard - add a tiny subtle shadow on the keys that adjusts as the key goes up and down and it will look even better. Check dmno.dev for a 3d button I just wired up (check light mode on desktop)

Remember being able to work on a single html file and upload it via FTP? πŸ˜‚

Not that I miss those days at all but I sure am grateful to have experienced the full journey from there to here to understand what's happening. I feel bad for folks just learning now - it's extremely overwhelming!

Pretty proud of this very snazzy new css 3d button. Made it to match the styling of the 3d dominos. See it live at dmno.dev (better on desktop to see hover)

Thanks @joshwcomeau.com for the easing tips on your 3d button article :)
