  A shim to load environment variables from .env into ENV in development. Based on the original [bkeepers](https://github.com/bkeepers/dotenv) module written in Ruby.
  And from this one <https://pypi.org/project/python-dotenv/>
  
  ## Synopsis
  
  In your application or scripts root directory, create a `.env` file and place some variables in it.
  
  ```
  MY_SECRET_INFO="some value"
  MY_API_KEY=123123oiashdam,hwejk1h23kbaamn
  
  ```
  
  Then inside of your script...
  
  ```
  use v6;
  use Env::Dotenv :ALL;
  
  dotenv_load();
  
  for %*ENV.kv -> $key, $value {
      "$key: $value".say;
  }
  
  my %dotenv = dotenv_values();
  
  say %dotenv{"MY_SECRET_INFO"};
  
  for dotenv_values().kv -> $key, $value {
      "$key: $value".say;
  }
  
  
  
  ```
  
  ## Installation
  
  ```
  zef install -v https://github.com/ispyhumanfly/raku-dotenv.git
  
  ```
