## Configuration
|

The configuration file is created during initialization and supports multiple formats:
|
||||
The configuration file is created during initialization:
|
||||
|
||||

|

|
||||

}
|

}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Backup Options
|
||||
|
||||
`envr` merely gathers your `.env` files in one local place. It is up to you to
|
||||
back up the database (found at ~/.envr/data.age) to a *secure* and *remote*
|
||||
back up the database (found at `~/.envr/data.age`) to a *secure* and *remote*
|
||||
location.
|
||||
|
||||
### Git
|
||||
|
||||
`envr` preserves inodes when updating the database, so you can safely hardlink
|
||||
`~/.envr/data.age` into your [GNU Stow](https://www.gnu.org/software/stow/),
|
||||
[Home Manager](https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager), or
|
||||
[NixOS](https://nixos.wiki/wiki/flakes) repository.
|
||||
|
||||
> [!CAUTION]
|
||||
> For **maximum security**, only save your `data.age` file to a local
|
||||
(i.e. non-cloud) git server that **you personally control**.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> I take no responsibility if you push all your secrets to a public GitHub repo.

## envr
|
||||
|
||||
Manage your .env files.
|
||||
|
||||
### Synopsis
|
||||
|
||||
envr keeps your .env synced to a local, age encrypted database.
|
||||
Is a safe and eay way to gather all your .env files in one place where they can
|
||||
easily be backed by another tool such as restic or git.
|
||||
|
||||
All your data is stored in ~/data.age
|
||||
|
||||
Getting started is easy:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Create your configuration file and set up encrypted storage:
|
||||
|
||||
> envr init
|
||||
|
||||
2. Scan for existing .env files:
|
||||
|
||||
> envr scan
|
||||
|
||||
Select the files you want to back up from the interactive list.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Verify that it worked:
|
||||
|
||||
> envr list
|
||||
|
||||
4. After changing any of your .env files, update the backup with:
|
||||
|
||||
> envr sync
|
||||
|
||||
5. If you lose a repository, after re-cloning the repo into the same path it was
|
||||
at before, restore your backup with:
|
||||
|
||||
> envr restore ~/<path to repository>/.env

||||
