envString

Signature

function envString(string calldata key) external returns (string value);

function envString(string calldata key, string calldata delimiter) external returns (string[] memory values);

Description

Read an environment variable as string or string[].

Tips

  • For arrays, you can specify the delimiter used to seperate the values with the delimiter parameter.
  • Choose a delimiter that doesn't appear in the string values, so that they can be correctly separated.

Examples

Single Value

With environment variable STRING_VALUE=hello, world!,

string memory key = "STRING_VALUE";
string expected = "hellow, world!";
string output = cheats.envString(key);
assertEq(output, expected);

Array

With environment variable STRING_VALUES=hello, world!|0x7109709ECfa91a80626fF3989D68f67F5b1DD12D;

string memory key = "STRING_VALUES";
string memory delimiter = "|";
string[2] memory expected = [
    "hello, world!",
    "0x7109709ECfa91a80626fF3989D68f67F5b1DD12D"
];
string[] memory output = cheats.envString(key, delimiter);
for (uint i = 0; i < expected.length; ++i) {
    assert(keccak256(abi.encodePacked((output[i]))) == keccak256(abi.encodePacked((expected[i]))));
}
