If you’re a software developer and have never heard of Doppler? This may just make your day.
Secrets and environment variables.
As a developer, you are likely going to use these at some point in your career. And if you have only a few code repos, managing your secrets may not be such a big deal. But what happens when you have hundreds if not thousands of software secrets and you need to completely change them all very quickly?
Sounds like a nightmare to me.
But I found something to save the day and replace ENVs! So in today’s Prosperous Heart Training, I am going to show what this golden tool is and a quick start on how to integrate it with your GitHub repositories (like mine) and CodeSpaces.
What Is Doppler?
Look to learn more about Doppler? They are a company built by developers for developers.
“Securing your secrets shouldn’t be complicated” is what they tout – and what they have is beautiful! As of April 2023, they now support over 6.5 BILLION secrets served monthly of the 1.2+ million stored. They even landed $20M to help companies manage their app secrets.
Their values HIGHLY resonate with my own, in that they:
- Build for Developers
- Own Their Impact
- Don’t Settle
- No Jerks
Given these points, I would already be sold on a company.
But to top everything off?
They also donate 1% of subscriptions to removing CO2 from the atmosphere!
As a result, for this and a growing number of reasons I am excited to use this product.
But be sure to check out their about page here for more great info about this company.
Quick Start With GitHub CodeSpaces
Below is a a video walking through the steps for a quick start to Doppler with GitHub CodeSpaces.
For the cheatsheet, check out this Jupyter notebook I added to my cheatsheets repo.
Another option? Check out their documentation!
You can also review my Doppler testing code repo (from the video) here. As of 20230501, it’s just a very simple python script that integrates with Doppler’s secrets as well as a UnitTest testing file.
