- Dotenv-expand adds variable expansion on top of
- [dotenv](http://github.com/motdotla/dotenv). If you find yourself needing to
- expand environment variables already existing on your machine, then
- dotenv-expand is your tool.

- ## Install
- ```bash
- npm install dotenv --save
- npm install dotenv-expand --save
- ```
- ## Usage
- As early as possible in your application, require dotenv and dotenv-expand, and
- wrap dotenv-expand around dotenv.
- ```js
- var dotenv = require('dotenv')
- var dotenvExpand = require('dotenv-expand')
- var myEnv = dotenv.config()
- dotenvExpand(myEnv)
- ```
- See [test/.env](./test/.env) for examples of variable expansion in your `.env`
- file.
