Monorepo Setup

lazyenv detects monorepo structure from .env.example files.

Folder Structure

lazyenv scans for .env.example files and creates corresponding secret paths:

my-monorepo/
├── apps/
│   ├── web/
│   │   └── .env.example      # → secret path: /apps/web
│   ├── api/
│   │   └── .env.example      # → secret path: /apps/api
│   └── admin/
│       └── .env.example      # → secret path: /apps/admin
├── packages/
│   └── shared/
│       └── .env.example      # → secret path: /packages/shared
└── .env.example              # → secret path: / (root)

Auto‑detection

When you run lazyenv init, it scans .env.example files, builds folder mappings, and writes .lazyenv/config.json.
