[Feature Request] Add auto_env_var_prefix #171
Comments
I think we could/should support something like this! Does typer do any auto-namespacing for this? Or are all parameters just directly derived, regardless of the command hierarchy? In your example you have What do we think about this proposed API:

Misc open-ended questions:
EDIT: Sorry, just noticed your comment in your initial post:
So then to confirm, the following command:
Should actually have env var Something like

Re: naming - I don't think we are bound to Typer's naming.
Re: edit - correct |
Can you elaborate on 2? I might be a bit confused. Regardless, I can begin working on this once I'm done with #165 |
So actually, this might play super nicely with #165 as a config. It would look something like:

I mean that if an |
oh gotcha! Yeah I think that makes sense. The I almost have #165 in a good state, I'll be going with the approach mentioned above. I should have something in a few days. |
Alright, great! Thank you for your work! |
Just an update on this: I haven't forgotten about it. I've been moving and that's been sucking up a lot of my time 😅 |
Completely understand, moving right now myself, can relate |
This feature is implemented in the newly released v2.7.0. See the example in the docs and the API docs for usage. |
@nordmtr fyi |
Hey @BrianPugh, thanks for implementing this! I have just a small question. I just took a look at the docs and realized the current implementation of this feature is mutually exclusive with the I wonder if it's necessarily should be the case? Shouldn't the user be able to use both at the same time? I mean defining some arguments in the |
you can! simply provide a list of callables to
Here the environment variables will get precedence since they are defined earlier in the |
Oh, thanks, didn't realize this was a thing. |
I just spent about 20 minutes trying to figure out why this wasn't working and I think this is the answer, but it's not very intuitive. What I was trying to do was something like this: app = App(config=cyclopts.config.Env("OTF_"))
OPT_TOKENS = Annotated[str, Parameter(show=False, allow_leading_hyphen=True)]
OPT_USERNAME = Annotated[str, Parameter(help="Username for the OTF API")]
OPT_PASSWORD = Annotated[str, Parameter(help="Password for the OTF API")]
OPT_LOG_LEVEL = Annotated[str, Parameter("CRITICAL", help="Log level", env_var="LOG_LEVEL")]
@app.meta.default
async def launcher(*tokens: OPT_TOKENS, username: OPT_USERNAME, password: OPT_PASSWORD):
api = await Api.create(username, password)
command, bound = app.parse_args(tokens)
return command(*bound.args, **bound.kwargs, api=api)
@app.command
def test(*,api:Annotated[Api,Parameter(parse=False)]):
print("test") But it seems multiple things go wrong here. This doesn't seem to work with I got this to work the way I wanted eventually by just setting the |
investigating; thanks for the report! |
Quickly testing the following python script: import cyclopts
from cyclopts import App
app = App(config=cyclopts.config.Env("OTF_"))
@app.default
def main(foo="python-default"):
print(foo)
if __name__ == "__main__":
app() $ python issue171.py
python-default
$ python issue171.py cli-value
cli-value
$ OTF_FOO=env-value python issue171.py
env-value So it certainly works with |
Opened #184 which should address the unintuitive behavior. |
Bit of unsolicited advice, but I'd recommend using docstrings to minimize the number of parameters you need to

First of all, this project looks great!
I would love to replace
Typer
withcyclopts
in my CLIs.However, there is an important
Click
feature currently lacking incyclopts
:auto_env_var_prefix
(calledauto_envvar_prefix
inClick
).Feature request
Allow setting
auto_env_var_prefix
incyclopts.App
(orapp.command
) which would generate aenv_var
for every parameter.For example, this CLI command
could read the
my_arg
environment variable fromMY_APP_MY_ARG
.This is extremely useful when building CLIs for deployment in various remote environments.
Nested commands should insert their names in the generated env variable.
