Env Файл Validator
Validate .env file format and compare against .env.example to find missing, extra, and duplicate keys. Color-coded results highlight issues instantly.
Можливості
- Parse `.env` files and flag duplicate keys, missing values, unquoted spaces
- Compare against a `.env.example` template to find missing or extra keys
- Comments (lines starting with `#`) are handled
- Multi-line values and escape sequences (\n, line-continuation) are NOT supported — single-line KEY=value only
- Runs entirely in your browser; pasted env values never leave your machine
Як використовувати
- Вставте ваш .env файл вміст в the left panel.
- Optionally вставте ваш .env.приклад файл в the right panel до порівняти keys.
- Натисніть Validate до see формат warnings та key comparison результати.
Поради та найкращі практики
- Single-line `KEY=value` is the supported shape. Multi-line values or escaped newlines parse incorrectly — use \n in your code if you need actual newlines.
- Quotes (single or double) around values are preserved as data — the validator doesn't strip them or re-interpret escapes.
- Compare mode helps catch the classic "I added a new env var locally but forgot to update .env.example" issue.
- For production env validation, use your framework's schema validator (e.g. zod, valibot) at startup.
- Comment patterns: full-line `# comment`, trailing `KEY=value # comment` is NOT split — the comment becomes part of the value.
Запитання та відповіді
What format issues does it detect?
The validator checks for missing equals signs, invalid key names (keys must start with a letter or underscore), unquoted values containing spaces, empty values, and duplicate keys. Each issue includes the line number and a clear description.
How does the key comparison work?
When you provide both .env and .env.example content, the tool compares their keys. Missing keys are in .env.example but not in your .env, extra keys are in your .env but not in .env.example, and matching keys appear in both files.
Is the .env.example panel required?
No. You can validate just the .env file format without providing an .env.example. The comparison section will only appear when both files are provided.
Does it check the values of environment variables?
The tool validates the format of values (quoting, empty values) but does not evaluate or validate the actual content of values. It focuses on structural correctness and key consistency.
Is my .env data secure?
Absolutely. All validation happens entirely in your browser. No data is sent to any server. Your environment variables, secrets, and API keys never leave your device.
Can I use this for Docker .env files?
Yes. The KEY=VALUE format is the same for Docker .env files, docker-compose environment files, and standard dotenv files. The validator works for all of these formats.
