Pass PERCY_TOKEN from .env file

The problem

PERCY_TOKEN value is not being passed if it is provided within the project .env file. Right now it is required to pass the env variable on the OS level. It would be great if one could also pass this variable from .env file while using dotenv package.

PERCY_TOKEN within .env file:

Same token with export statement:

Since both those values are reachable from within the project via process.env.PERCY_TOKEN, it should be possible to implement such a feature.

Environment

• Node version: v16.16.0
• @percy/cli version: 1.8.0
• Version of Percy SDK you’re using: 1.8.0
• If needed, a build or snapshot ID:
• OS version: MacOS Monterey 12.5
• Type of shell command-line [interface]:

Hey @viktorNedelko! This is supported. I would verify you have the the token set correctly in the .env file. I see a space in there, so it might be that.

# .env file
PERCY_TOKEN="abc123"
