How reference env within dopper run -- [command]

Need Help
1

I’m currently trying to integrate it with netlify.

doppler run – netlify deploy --auth $NETLIFY_AUTH_TOKEN
› Error: Flag --auth expects a value

The $NETLIFY_AUTH_TOKEN is already set up

doppler run – printenv NETLIFY_AUTH_TOKEN (this shows)
doppler run – echo $NETLIFY_AUTH_TOKEN (doesn’t show anything) how to reference it?

Hey Mario, it looks like bash is executing on the variable before doppler run executes. Try this instead:

doppler run – netlify deploy --auth \$NETLIFY_AUTH_TOKEN

I have tried it but it doesn’t seem to work.

Apparently, I can’t doppler run -- echo $anything it doesn’t return anything back.

Hi @Mario_Fantastic,

Can you try using the --command flag instead:

doppler run --command='netlify deploy --auth $NETLIFY_AUTH_TOKEN'

Ah thank you very much! That works!

Any plans for Doppler team to integrate it in the normal dopper run --

In case anyone attempts to access the $ENV from the shell command like mine.

I couldn’t find a proper reference. For that --command flag, I only saw in doc for using multiple commands.

Best regards

Great idea @Mario_Fantastic and I’ve added a new example in our CLI Accessing Secrets Guide that uses the --command flag.
