Use of environmental variables? #225

Hi,

Thanks for this tool. One question, I would like to use environmental variables in the .meta file, so it can be used by various developers without having to change the .meta file.

I would like to have something like:

{ "projects": { "project-1": "ssh://${GIT_USER}@bitbucket.org:mycompany/p1.git", "project-2": "ssh://${GIT_USER}@bitbucket.org:mycompany/p2.git", "project-3": "ssh://${GIT_USER}@bitbucket.org:mycompany/p3.git" } }

Is that possible? (I tried as above and it doesn't work, variables are not resolved).

Thanks,

Juan

It is possible. .meta can be a json file or a .js file. When using js, simply make sure you module.export a valid js object.
