apiki
apiki is a terminal-based environment variable manager that helps you organize, select, and apply environment variables across different projects and contexts. Instead of juggling multiple .env files or manually exporting variables, apiki lets you:
- Organize environment variables in a central location
- Select which variables to activate using a visual interface
- Import variables from existing
.envfiles or your current shell environment - Apply changes directly to your shell session
Key Features
- Visual Interface – Navigate and manage variables with keyboard shortcuts
- Fuzzy Search – Quickly find variables by name or description
- Alternatives – Multiple values for the same variable (e.g., different database URLs for dev/staging/prod)
.envIntegration – Automatically discovers and loads.envfiles from your project- Environment Import – Capture variables from your current shell
- Shell Integration – Works seamlessly with bash, zsh, and fish
- Encryption – Protect sensitive values at rest with password or keychain-based encryption
