eva

Eva is a fork of Sean Brant's virtualenvwrapper.configvar project. The main difference is eva looks for the .env file in your project's folder as specified by the -a flag. It also has the eva command that will show you a table of the variables from the .env file and what is actually set in the environment.

Usage

File Format

CACHE_ENGINE=redis

Create a virtualenv with a project folder using the -a flag.
