EnvHelper

TODO: Add description

Installation

If available in Hex, the package can be installed as:

1. Add env_helper to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

   def deps do [{:env_helper, "~> 0.0.1"}] end

Usage

Create a module to keep your settings in, and then call the system_env/2 macro with the name of the environment variable you want to use as a lowercase atom, and the value you want to be the default as a string. For example:

defmodule Settings
  import EnvHelper
  system_env(:base_url, "localhost:9000")
end

This maps the method Settings.base_url to the system environment variable BASE_URL, or to the default value if the environment variable is not set.
