tools

If you work with Terraform you might know the struggle setting the right environment variables. Especially if you work with different Terraform configurations on a daily basis. I found 2 tools (or a tool and a script) to make this much easier. The first is direnv which automagically sources env variables stored in a .envrc file if you change in a managed directory. $ mkdir direnv-test $ echo "export mykey=wasd" >> ....

With every installation of a new system I struggle setting up an ssh-agent. Although it only requires 4 simple steps I somehow manage to always miss at least one of them. I use a systemd user unit to start the ssh-agent as I don’t want to manage services with shell scripts or in my sway config, if avoidable. This is more or less exactly what can be found in the Arch wiki....
