Loading environment variables based on profile flag

[hanhwanglim]

mise supports multiple config environment depending on MISE_ENV. Most of the time, tools and tasks remains the same, but environment variables changes depending on the use case. could we perhaps add a profile flag on mise env to select the environment variables we want to load?

for example, if we have the config file

# mise.toml
[env]
DATABASE_URL = "dev-db-url"
API_KEY = "dev-api-key"

[env.production]
DATABASE_URL = "production-db-url"
API_KEY = "prod-api-key"

by default mise will load the values, "dev-db-url" and "dev-api-key"

but running mise env production will load the environment variables from the production table

export DATABASE_URL = "production-db-url"
export API_KEY = "prod-api-key"

this is what MISE_ENV is for. You put your tools and tasks in mise.toml and then overrides in env files.

thanks for the response. MISE_ENV does solve my use case. but it can get tedious if i would require to create and manage many mise.{env}.toml files for the many different environments. having a centralised config for storing it would be in my opinion a nice to have
