what

vocal swan
#

Could it be that you need to call load_dotenv()?

spice pasture
#

it still didnt work

#

😢

vocal swan
#

Does os.getenv('test') work?

spice pasture
#

let me try

#

negative

#

did i forget to install seomthing?

#

with pip

vocal swan
#

Strange, no I don't think you should have to install anything. Currently looking at some guide showing this exact code

#

But there's also an example where it loads the specific file

spice pasture
#

do i have to restart my computer

#

and try

#

cuz im doing this for security

#

im tryna test

#

im going to try restarting my computer real quick

vocal swan
#

Try this:

from dotenv import load_dotenv
from pathlib import Path

envfile = Path(".env")
load_dotenv(dotenv_path=envfile)
print(os.getenv("test"))
spice pasture
#

ok

#

did u fuck up something here

vocal swan
#

It could be due to cwd

spice pasture
#

so what do i do

#

what can i do to make this code work

#

😢

vocal swan
#

Do you know if os.getcwd() is in the learning folder or in the main one?

spice pasture
#

im not sure

#

but this everything expanded

vocal swan
#

Just run print(os.getwd()) and see if it ends with /learning

spice pasture
#

ok

vocal swan
#

getcwd

#

my bad

spice pasture
#

ye

#

its in learning

vocal swan
#

Okay. So then the relative path would be ../.env

spice pasture
#

oh

#

so its not

#

dotenv?

vocal swan
# 
from dotenv import load_dotenv
from pathlib import Path

envfile = Path("../.env")
load_dotenv(dotenv_path=envfile)
print(os.getenv("test"))
spice pasture
#

ok

#

so i guess my question is

#

how come for my friend

vocal swan
#

Maybe it can

spice pasture
#

the og code worked

#

but for me

#

its not

#

oh

#

it still came back as none....

vocal swan
#

I think it's due to directory the code is run from. But I don't know

#

Let me setup on my side, easier for me to test like that

spice pasture
#

also says os is not defined

#

yeah thank you

#

im new to python

#

so this is all just so zzzz

vocal swan
#

Yeah I get you. I'll need a min

#

Hmm, I tested with something slightly different

#

But I did pip install dotenv I don't know if you have the same one

#

And with this code:

import dotenv

print(dotenv.Dotenv("../.env"))

At least I got the right output

spice pasture
#

i think i did

#

python -m venv venv

#

pip install ipykenernel

#

ipykernel

solid osprey
#

on the bottom right of vscode

#

what does this say

#

for example im using a venv 3.12.1

#

if you click it

#

it will let you change the interpreter

#

when i have to click the top left and save everytime

#

vocal swan

I'm not really familiar with your IDE, I know Pycharm does that

#

I think it should be a setting for that
