src: support multi-line values for .env file by IlyasShabi · Pull Request #51289 · nodejs/node

IlyasShabi · 2023-12-26T12:53:05Z

Following the follow-up, we currently do not handle multi-line values in the .env file.
This PR aims to add this feature based on the implementation in dotenv

@IlyasShabi Can you fix the C++ linting errors?

Can you update the docs too? It should include the version .env start supporting multiline strings.

-  while (!key.empty() && std::isspace(key.back())) key.remove_suffix(1);
+    // Expand newlines if double quoted
+    if (maybeQuote == '"') {
+      value = std::regex_replace(value, std::regex("\\\\n"), "\n");


I believe string erase and remove would be faster and more readable than regex replace. The same applies for the next line as well.

str.erase(remove(str.begin(), str.end(), ch), str.end());

Does this mean that the parser is exactly compatible with dotenv? #49148 (comment) sounds like dotenv supports multi-line values, and if it does, this implementation should probably be compatible.

@tniessen The goal of this PR is to support multi-line values same as dotenv

IlyasShabi · 2024-01-07T18:06:56Z

test/parallel/test-dotenv.js

+assert.strictEqual(process.env.MULTI_BACKTICKED, 'THIS\nIS\nA\n"MULTILINE\'S"\nSTRING');
+assert.strictEqual(process.env.MULTI_NOT_VALID_QUOTE, '"');
+assert.strictEqual(process.env.MULTI_NOT_VALID, 'THIS');
+assert.strictEqual(process.env.EXAMPLE, 'ignore export');


This PR also adds support for the export keyword. According to dotenv, there may be an export keyword before the key, this keyword is ignored.
Unfortunately, I did not find a test for the export feature in the dotenv test suite.

@RafaelGSS @anonrig @tniessen Could you please review it again ?

@anonrig the macos machines are available again, so they are processing the CI pending queue. It can take a while
