python-env-resolver

Type-safe environment configuration for Python applications using Pydantic models.

pip install python-env-resolver
# or with optional extras:
pip install "python-env-resolver[http,aws]"
# or
uv add python-env-resolver

Hello World

from pydantic import BaseModel
from python_env_resolver import from_env

class Config(BaseModel):
    database_url: str

config = from_env(Config)  # Reads DATABASE_URL from os.environ

Default mapping: snake_case field → UPPER_SNAKE env var (e.g., database_url → DATABASE_URL)

Key features:

• ✅ Pythonic API - Sync by default, _async suffix for async (follows Python conventions)
• ✅ Works everywhere - FastAPI, Django, Flask, scripts (auto-detects event loops)
• ✅ Type-safe - Full Pydantic validation with custom validators
• ✅ Production-ready - Security policies, audit logs, caching

Environment Variable Mapping

By default, field names are converted to uppercase with underscores. Override this with Field aliases:

from pydantic import BaseModel, Field

class Config(BaseModel):
    # Default: database_url → DATABASE_URL
    database_url: str
    
    # Custom alias
    api_key: str = Field(..., validation_alias="API_KEY")
    
    # Multiple fallbacks (tries in order)
    secret: str | None = Field(None, validation_alias=("SECRET_KEY", "APP_SECRET", "SECRET"))
    
    # Dots and hyphens become underscores: service.url or service-url → SERVICE_URL
    service_url: str

Environment variable prefixes

Use prefixes for namespacing (common in multi-service deployments):

from pydantic import BaseModel
from python_env_resolver import process_env, resolve

class AppConfig(BaseModel):
    database_url: str  # Reads APP_DATABASE_URL (prefix stripped)
    port: int = 3000   # Reads APP_PORT (prefix stripped)

# Only reads APP_* variables and strips the prefix
config = await resolve(
    AppConfig,
    resolvers=[process_env(prefix="APP_")]
)

Multiple fallback aliases

Pydantic v2 supports multiple alias fallbacks using AliasChoices:

from pydantic import BaseModel, Field, AliasChoices

class Config(BaseModel):
    # AliasChoices tries each alias in order
    secret: str | None = Field(
        None,
        validation_alias=AliasChoices("SECRET_KEY", "APP_SECRET", "SECRET"),
    )
    
    api_key: str | None = Field(
        None,
        validation_alias=AliasChoices("APP_API_KEY", "API_KEY", "KEY")
    )

config = from_env(Config)
# Resolves to first matching environment variable

Kubernetes/Docker secrets (_FILE convention)

Load secrets from files (Kubernetes ConfigMaps, Docker secrets):

from python_env_resolver import file_env, process_env, resolve

# DATABASE_URL_FILE=/run/secrets/db reads file and injects DATABASE_URL
config = await resolve(
    AppConfig,
    resolvers=[file_env(), process_env()]  # file_env first, then process_env overrides
)

Boolean and list parsing

Pydantic handles common type coercions automatically:

Type	Truthy Values	Falsy Values	Example
bool	"1", "true", "on", "yes" (case-insensitive)	"0", "false", "off", "no", ""	DEBUG=true → True
list[str]	Comma-separated values	Empty string → []	HOSTS=a,b,c → ["a", "b", "c"]

class Config(BaseModel):
    debug: bool = False
    allowed_hosts: list[str] = []  # Parsed from comma-separated: "host1,host2,host3"

Validation Patterns

Default values

Use Pydantic's default values:

from pydantic import BaseModel

class Config(BaseModel):
    port: int = 3000           # Defaults to 3000
    debug: bool = False        # Defaults to false
    log_level: str = 'info'    # Defaults to 'info'

config = from_env(Config)

Optional values

Use Python's type unions:

class Config(BaseModel):
    api_key: str | None = None          # Optional string
    redis_url: str | None = None         # Optional string
    max_retries: int | None = None       # Optional int

config = from_env(Config)

Enums

Use Pydantic's Literal for enum validation:

from typing import Literal
from pydantic import BaseModel

class Config(BaseModel):
    node_env: Literal['development', 'production', 'test']
    log_level: Literal['debug', 'info', 'warn', 'error'] = 'info'

config = from_env(Config)
# TypeScript-like: config.node_env is 'development' | 'production' | 'test'

Or use Python's Enum:

from enum import Enum
from pydantic import BaseModel

class LogLevel(str, Enum):
    DEBUG = 'debug'
    INFO = 'info'
    WARN = 'warn'
    ERROR = 'error'

class Config(BaseModel):
    log_level: LogLevel = LogLevel.INFO

config = from_env(Config)

Built-in Pydantic types

Pydantic provides rich type validation out of the box:

from pydantic import BaseModel, HttpUrl, EmailStr, PostgresDsn, RedisDsn, field_validator
from python_env_resolver import validate_port

class Config(BaseModel):
    # Network types
    api_url: HttpUrl                    # Validates URL format
    admin_email: EmailStr               # Validates email format
    
    # Database connections
    database_url: PostgresDsn           # PostgreSQL connection string
    redis_url: RedisDsn                 # Redis connection string
    
    # Custom validation with helpers
    port: int = 3000
    
    @field_validator('port')
    @classmethod
    def check_port(cls, v: int) -> int:
        return validate_port(v, min_port=1024, max_port=65535)

config = from_env(Config)

Available helper validators

Built-in validators from python_env_resolver:

• validate_url(v, require_https=True) - URL validation with optional HTTPS enforcement
• validate_port(v, min_port=1, max_port=65535) - Port range validation
• validate_email(v) - Email format validation
• validate_number_range(v, min_val, max_val) - Numeric range validation

Pydantic's built-in types (import from pydantic):

• HttpUrl - HTTP/HTTPS URLs
• PostgresDsn, MySQLDsn, RedisDsn - Database connection strings
• EmailStr - Email addresses
• IPvAnyAddress, IPvAnyInterface, IPvAnyNetwork - IP validation
• FilePath, DirectoryPath - Filesystem paths
• Json - JSON strings (auto-parsed)
• SecretStr - Sensitive strings (redacted in logs)

Features

• Type validation using Pydantic models
• Resolver pipeline for merging multiple configuration sources (os.environ, .env, cloud stores, custom sources)
• Security policies to control configuration sources in different environments
• Audit logging for tracking configuration provenance
• TTL-based caching with stale-while-revalidate support for async sources

Quickstart

Sync (Recommended - Default)

from pydantic import BaseModel, HttpUrl
from python_env_resolver import from_env  # shorthand for process.env only

class AppConfig(BaseModel):
    port: int = 3000
    database_url: HttpUrl
    debug: bool = False
    api_key: str | None = None

# ✅ Sync is the default - works everywhere (even FastAPI module imports!)
config = from_env(AppConfig)
print(config.database_url)

Async (Only when needed)

from pydantic import BaseModel, HttpUrl
from python_env_resolver import from_env_async  # async version

class AppConfig(BaseModel):
    port: int = 3000
    database_url: HttpUrl
    debug: bool = False
    api_key: str | None = None

async def main():
    config = await from_env_async(AppConfig)
    print(config.database_url)

API Design (Pythonic):

• from_env() - Sync (default, no suffix) ✅ Use this for 90% of cases
• from_env_async() - Async (explicit _async suffix) - Only for async contexts
• resolve() - Sync with multiple resolvers
• resolve_async() - Async with multiple resolvers

Both APIs load from process.env (os.environ) by default. Use resolve() when you need multiple sources.

⚠️ Sync-in-async safety: from_env() and resolve() automatically detect running event loops (FastAPI/uvicorn imports, Jupyter notebooks) and execute in a worker thread to avoid RuntimeError. This enables module-level config loading in async frameworks. Thread execution is transparent, re-entrant, and safe, with minimal overhead (~1-5ms).

End-to-End Example

A complete example showing multi-source resolution, production policies, and error handling:

import logging
from pydantic import BaseModel, HttpUrl
from python_env_resolver import (
    dotenv, process_env, safe_resolve,
    PolicyConfig, ResolveOptions
)

logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)

class AppConfig(BaseModel):
    database_url: HttpUrl
    api_key: str
    debug: bool = False

async def load_config():
    result = await safe_resolve(
        AppConfig,
        resolvers=[
            dotenv(".env"),      # .env file (dev only by default)
            process_env()        # os.environ overrides .env
        ],
        options=ResolveOptions(
            priority="last",     # later resolvers win
            policies=PolicyConfig(
                # Block .env completely in production
                allow_dotenv_in_production=None,
                # Enforce specific sources for secrets
                enforce_allowed_sources={
                    "API_KEY": ["vault-secrets", "process.env"]
                }
            ),
            enable_audit=True
        )
    )
    
    if not result.success:
        # Error is a string with full error details
        logger.error(f"Configuration failed: {result.error}")
        raise RuntimeError(f"Config failed: {result.error}")
    
    return result.data

# Usage
config = await load_config()

Resolvers and merge strategy

from python_env_resolver import dotenv, process_env, resolve, resolve_async, ResolveOptions

# Sync (recommended):
config = resolve(
    AppConfig,
    resolvers=[dotenv(".env"), process_env()],
    options=ResolveOptions(priority="last"),  # later resolvers override earlier ones (default)
)

# Or async (when needed):
async def load_config():
    return await resolve_async(
        AppConfig,
        resolvers=[dotenv(".env"), process_env()],
        options=ResolveOptions(priority="last")
    )

Precedence rules

When multiple resolvers provide the same variable, the merge strategy is controlled by priority:

Priority	Merge Order	Collision Behavior	Example
"last" (default)	resolvers[0], resolvers[1], ...	Later wins	.env has PORT=3000, os.environ has PORT=8080 → result: 8080
"first"	resolvers[0], resolvers[1], ...	Earlier wins	.env has PORT=3000, os.environ has PORT=8080 → result: 3000

Collision example:

# .env file contains: PORT=3000
# os.environ contains: PORT=8080

# With priority="last" (default):
config = await resolve(
    AppConfig,
    resolvers=[dotenv(".env"), process_env()],  # process_env() overrides dotenv
    options=ResolveOptions(priority="last")
)
print(config.port)  # 8080 (from os.environ)

# With priority="first":
config = await resolve(
    AppConfig,
    resolvers=[dotenv(".env"), process_env()],  # dotenv wins, process_env ignored
    options=ResolveOptions(priority="first")
)
print(config.port)  # 3000 (from .env)

Resolvers are async callables that return dict[str, str]. Custom sources only need to implement a .load() coroutine and a name.

Custom resolvers

Build your own resolver to load from any source—databases, HTTP APIs, vault systems, or custom file formats. The interface is minimal and composable.

Type contract

All resolvers must satisfy the Resolver protocol:

from typing import Protocol, Mapping

class Resolver(Protocol):
    name: str
    async def load(self) -> Mapping[str, str]: ...

This protocol is exported from python_env_resolver for type hints and IDE support. You can annotate resolver lists as list[Resolver].

Example: Consul resolver

import httpx

class ConsulResolver:
    def __init__(self, host: str, prefix: str):
        self.name = "consul"
        self.metadata = {}
        self.host = host
        self.prefix = prefix
    
    async def load(self) -> dict[str, str]:
        # Your logic to fetch key-value pairs from Consul
        async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:
            response = await client.get(f"{self.host}/v1/kv/{self.prefix}?recurse=true")
            data = response.json()
            return {item["Key"]: item["Value"] for item in data}

# Use it like any built-in resolver
config = await resolve(
    AppConfig,
    resolvers=[ConsulResolver("http://localhost:8500", "app/config"), process_env()],
)

Just implement name, metadata, and async def load() to satisfy the Resolver protocol.

Custom validators

Compose Pydantic validators with built-in utilities or create your own for domain-specific constraints:

from pydantic import BaseModel, field_validator
from python_env_resolver import resolve, validate_url, validate_port

class AppConfig(BaseModel):
    api_url: str
    port: int
    redis_host: str
    
    @field_validator("api_url")
    @classmethod
    def check_api_url(cls, v: str) -> str:
        # Use built-in validator
        return validate_url(v, require_https=True)
    
    @field_validator("port")
    @classmethod
    def check_port(cls, v: int) -> int:
        # Compose with built-in validator
        return validate_port(v, min_port=1024, max_port=65535)
    
    @field_validator("redis_host")
    @classmethod
    def check_redis_host(cls, v: str) -> str:
        # Custom domain validation
        allowed_domains = [".cache.example.com", "localhost"]
        if not any(v.endswith(domain) or v == domain for domain in allowed_domains):
            raise ValueError(f"Redis host must end with allowed domains: {allowed_domains}")
        return v

config = await resolve(AppConfig)

Mix and match validators for ultimate flexibility:

from python_env_resolver import validate_email, validate_number_range

class ServiceConfig(BaseModel):
    admin_email: str
    max_connections: int
    timeout_seconds: float
    
    @field_validator("admin_email")
    @classmethod
    def check_email(cls, v: str) -> str:
        return validate_email(v)
    
    @field_validator("max_connections")
    @classmethod
    def check_max_connections(cls, v: int) -> int:
        return validate_number_range(v, min_val=1, max_val=1000)
    
    @field_validator("timeout_seconds")
    @classmethod
    def check_timeout(cls, v: float) -> float:
        if v <= 0 or v > 300:
            raise ValueError("Timeout must be between 0 and 300 seconds")
        return v

Caching

Resolvers can be wrapped with cached() to enable TTL-based caching with optional stale-while-revalidate behavior. All TTL fields accept timedelta objects; TTL constants are convenience shortcuts.

from datetime import timedelta
from python_env_resolver import CacheOptions, TTL, cached

# Example: caching a custom secrets resolver
secrets_resolver = cached(
    your_secrets_resolver,
    CacheOptions(
        ttl=timedelta(minutes=5),  # or TTL.minutes5 for convenience
        max_age=timedelta(hours=1),  # or TTL.hour
        stale_while_revalidate=True,
    ),
)

async def load_config():
    return await resolve(AppConfig, resolvers=[secrets_resolver])

Stale-while-revalidate behavior

When stale_while_revalidate=True:

• Coalescing scope: Per resolver (not per key)—multiple concurrent requests to the same resolver coalesce into a single background refresh
• Each resolver maintains its own cache keyed by resolver name
• Only one refresh task runs at a time per resolver
• No automatic backoff on failures; implement retry logic in your resolver's load() method

To avoid thundering herd issues during deployments, add jitter to TTL values:

import random
CacheOptions(ttl=timedelta(minutes=5, seconds=random.uniform(0, 30)), ...)

Security policies

Control which resolvers can provide specific configuration values.

from python_env_resolver import PolicyConfig, ResolveOptions

options = ResolveOptions(
    policies=PolicyConfig(
        allow_dotenv_in_production=["LOG_LEVEL"],  # only allow this key from .env
        enforce_allowed_sources={
            "DATABASE_URL": ["vault-secrets", "process.env"],
        },
    )
)

config = await resolve(AppConfig, options=options)

Resolver names for policies

When using enforce_allowed_sources, reference resolvers by their canonical names. Use ResolverNames constants to avoid typos:

from python_env_resolver import ResolverNames, PolicyConfig, ResolveOptions

options = ResolveOptions(
    policies=PolicyConfig(
        enforce_allowed_sources={
            "DATABASE_URL": [ResolverNames.PROCESS_ENV, "vault-secrets"],
            "API_KEY": [ResolverNames.FILE_ENV, ResolverNames.PROCESS_ENV],
            "LOG_LEVEL": [ResolverNames.dotenv_for(".env"), ResolverNames.PROCESS_ENV]
        }
    )
)

Resolver	Name String	Helper/Constant
process_env()	"process.env"	ResolverNames.PROCESS_ENV
file_env()	"file.env"	ResolverNames.FILE_ENV
dotenv(".env")	"dotenv(.env)"	ResolverNames.dotenv_for(".env")
dotenv(".env.local")	"dotenv(.env.local)"	ResolverNames.dotenv_for(".env.local")
Custom resolvers	Uses resolver.name	Define your own constant

Note:

• Dotenv resolver includes the file path in its name, so use ResolverNames.dotenv_for(path) helper
• Custom resolvers set their own name attribute—that's what policies match on

Production environment detection

Detection order: ResolveOptions(env=...) > PYTHON_ENV > ENV > "development" (default)

# 1. Override via ResolveOptions (highest priority)
config = await resolve(
    AppConfig,
    options=ResolveOptions(env="production")  # Forces production mode
)

# 2. Or set environment variable:
# export PYTHON_ENV=production

# 3. Or fallback to ENV:
# export ENV=production

# 4. Default is "development" if none are set

Default behavior

By default, .env files are blocked in production environments. This prevents loading secrets from files that may be committed to version control.

Strict mode: Set allow_dotenv_in_production=None (the default) to completely block .env in production. Use an allowlist like ["LOG_LEVEL", "DEBUG"] for selective access.

Production configuration example:

options = ResolveOptions(
    policies=PolicyConfig(
        allow_dotenv_in_production=None,  # block .env entirely (default)
        enforce_allowed_sources={
            "DATABASE_PASSWORD": ["vault-secrets", "process.env"],
            "API_SECRET": ["vault-secrets", "process.env"],
        },
    )
)

In development environments, .env files are loaded normally.

Policy violations raise ValueError during resolution.

Audit trail

Track the source of each configuration value. Security guarantee: Audit logs contain keys and source names only—raw values are never logged or included in error messages.

from python_env_resolver import ResolveOptions, get_audit_log

config = await resolve(
    AppConfig,
    options=ResolveOptions(enable_audit=True),
)

for event in get_audit_log():
    print(event.type, event.source, event.details)  # Values are redacted

Storage scope

By default, audit logs and caches are process-global and thread-safe (designed to minimize contention under concurrent access).

Non-raising API

Use safe_resolve for error handling without exceptions:

from python_env_resolver import safe_resolve, safe_resolve_async

result = await safe_resolve(AppConfig)
if result.success:
    config = result.data
    print(f"Loaded config: {config}")
else:
    # Error payload includes:
    # - Validation errors (missing fields, type mismatches)
    # - Policy violations (source, key, message)
    # - Resolver errors (network, permission issues)
    logger.error(f"Configuration failed: {result.error}")
    raise RuntimeError(result.error)

# Synchronous helper
sync_result = safe_resolve(AppConfig)
if not sync_result.success:
    # Log to alerting system
    alert_ops(f"Config resolution failed: {sync_result.error}")
    raise RuntimeError(sync_result.error)

The ResolveResult type provides structured error information via ResolveError:

# Structured error access
result = await safe_resolve(AppConfig)
if not result.success:
    error = result.error  # ResolveError instance
    
    # Programmatic access
    if error.type == "policy_violation":
        log_policy_violation(error.key, error.source)
    elif error.type == "validation_error":
        log_validation_error(error.field, error.message)
    elif error.type == "resolver_error":
        log_resolver_error(error.source, error.message)
    
    # Or use as string
    print(f"Error: {error}")  # Calls __str__()

Error types:

• validation_error: Pydantic validation failures
• policy_violation: Security policy violations
• resolver_error: Network, permission, or resolver failures

Comparison with pydantic-settings

pydantic-settings is the official Pydantic team solution for environment configuration. It uses an inheritance-based API (class Settings(BaseSettings)) and is an excellent choice for most applications.

Both libraries share the same core dependencies (pydantic + python-dotenv), so there's no size/weight difference.

Key Differences

Feature	python-env-resolver	pydantic-settings
API style	Functional (from_env(Model))	Inheritance (class Settings(BaseSettings))
Async support	Sync-first with async option	Sync only
Basic env/.env	✅ Yes	✅ Yes
Cloud integrations	Custom resolvers	Official extras (AWS/Azure/GCP)
Multi-source pipeline	Built-in resolver pattern	Via settings_customise_sources
Security policies	✅ Production .env blocking, source restrictions	❌ No
Audit logging	✅ Config provenance tracking	❌ No
TTL caching	✅ With stale-while-revalidate	❌ No

When to Choose python-env-resolver

Use this library if you need:

• Security policies - Enforce which sources can provide sensitive config (compliance/regulated industries)
• Audit trails - Track where each config value came from (SOC2, HIPAA, etc.)
• Multi-source composition - Explicit resolver pipeline pattern for complex config merging
• TTL caching - For frequently-accessed remote config sources (Consul, Vault, etc.)
• Functional API preference - If you prefer functional composition over inheritance

When to Choose pydantic-settings

Use pydantic-settings if you:

• Prefer inheritance-based patterns (class Settings(BaseSettings))
• Only need env + .env files for basic applications
• Want official Pydantic team support and maintenance
• Need cloud integrations with minimal setup (official AWS/Azure/GCP extras)
• Don't require policies, audit, or caching features

Bottom line: For basic env/.env use cases, pydantic-settings is simpler and well-supported. For applications requiring security policies, audit trails, or complex multi-source config management, python-env-resolver provides additional capabilities.

API Reference

Constants and validators

• TTL constants: TTL.minutes5, TTL.hour, etc. (convenience shortcuts; all fields accept timedelta)
• Validators: validate_url(require_https=True), validate_port(min_port=1024), validate_email, validate_number_range(min_val, max_val)

Resolver factories

• process_env(prefix=""): Load from os.environ, optionally filtering by prefix
• dotenv(path): Load from .env file
• file_env(): Load from Docker/Kubernetes *_FILE secrets
• from_env() (sync), from_env_async() (async): Shortcuts for process environment only

Types

• Resolver: Protocol for custom resolvers (requires name: str, metadata: dict, async def load() -> Mapping[str, str])
• ResolveResult: Result type for safe_resolve() (has success: bool, data, error: ResolveError)
• ResolveError: Structured error information (has type, message, optional key, source, field, details)
• PolicyConfig: Security policy configuration
• CacheOptions: Cache configuration (accepts timedelta for all TTL fields)
• ResolveOptions: Main configuration object
• AuditEvent: Audit log event type

Constants

• ResolverNames.PROCESS_ENV, ResolverNames.FILE_ENV: Canonical resolver name constants
• ResolverNames.dotenv_for(path): Helper to get dotenv resolver name (includes path)

Real-World Examples

FastAPI Integration

Option 1: Module-level loading (Recommended)

# app/main.py - imported by uvicorn
from fastapi import FastAPI
from pydantic import BaseModel, PostgresDsn
from python_env_resolver import from_env

class AppConfig(BaseModel):
    database_url: PostgresDsn
    redis_url: str
    api_key: str
    debug: bool = False

# ✅ Load at module import time - works with uvicorn/hypercorn!
# from_env() detects the event loop and runs in a thread if needed
config = from_env(AppConfig)

app = FastAPI()

@app.get("/health")
def health():
    return {"status": "ok", "debug": config.debug, "db": str(config.database_url)}

Why this works: When uvicorn imports your module, from_env() detects the running event loop and automatically executes in a worker thread to avoid RuntimeError: asyncio.run() cannot be called from a running event loop. This is transparent and adds minimal overhead (~1-5ms).

Option 2: Async startup event (if you need async resolvers)

from fastapi import FastAPI
from python_env_resolver import from_env_async

config = None

app = FastAPI()

@app.on_event("startup")
async def load_config():
    global config
    config = await from_env_async(AppConfig)

Use Option 2 only if you have custom async resolvers (e.g., fetching from AWS Secrets Manager). For standard use cases (os.environ, .env files), Option 1 is cleaner.

FAQ

Why are there async versions?

While the sync API (from_env(), resolve()) is recommended for 90% of use cases, async versions exist for:

• Custom async resolvers - when fetching from async sources (AWS Secrets Manager, databases, APIs)
• Concurrent resolver execution - fetch from multiple remote sources in parallel
• Non-blocking operations - in async applications that need fully async config loading

The design is sync-first (Pythonic):

• from_env() - Sync (default, works everywhere including FastAPI imports)
• from_env_async() - Async (explicit _async suffix, only when needed)

Both use the same resolver chain internally, so behavior is identical.

When should I use pydantic-settings instead?

Use pydantic-settings if:

• You only need os.environ + .env files (no remote sources)
• You don't need security policies, audit trails, or caching
• You prefer a simpler, sync-only API

Use python-env-resolver if:

• You load config from multiple sources (cloud secrets, APIs, etc.)
• You need production policies or audit logging
• You want async resolution and caching for remote sources

How do I handle missing environment variables?

Use Pydantic's type system:

class Config(BaseModel):
    required_key: str               # Must be present
    optional_key: str | None = None # Optional
    with_default: int = 3000        # Has default value

Or use safe_resolve() for non-raising error handling.
