how to load environment variables from a secrets manager ?

[Geczy]

currently i always have to do:

doppler run -- just <command>

i would like to just do:

just <command>

and somewhere in the justfile it will load the doppler variables, how can i do this?

You should be able to setup your command in question in a hidden recipe and have a public recipe call it with the integration environment

# Public Integration Recipe
command:
    doppler run -- just _command

# Hidden Actual Recipe
_command:
    # all the code...

unfortunately that doesn't work me.

just command gives me Doppler Error: Invalid Auth token. However if I type doppler run -- just _command in the terminal it works fine

I wish we had a general solution for these kinds of thing. This is an instance of the more general problem that you cannot run a command which exports variables, and then have those variables exported to your just recipes.

In this case, can you have doppler export secrets to a .env file, which just then loads?
