[Feature]: direnv support #19

Closed ysndr closed 4 years ago

ysndr commented 4 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe I see this plugin is clearly made with nix in mind. Yet, currently I'm using direnv in combination with this . plugin. Sadly that one seems unmaintained having received no update for the last three (!) years and has . accumulated some issues ragarding api incompatibilities.

I was hoping now that you implement a similar thing, adding support for another environment provider i.e. direnv might be worthwhile to think about.

In addition this would allow for higher flexibility harnessing an existing tool for the job. Maybe this could also solve #17?

@ysndr I plan to add some other feature from the nix package manager to the extension. So, that functionality is out of my roadmap.
