Dynamic .env file

[g5becks]

This may be possible already and I am unaware of it, but what I would like to be able to do is set the dotenv file based on an environment variable.
E.G.

version: "3"

env:
  NODE_ENV: echo $($NODE_ENV)

dotenv: ["./packages/server/.env.{{.NODE_ENV}}"]

This would enable more dynamic variables for my tasks as opposed to writing separate taskfiles and including them.

Thanks.

In the meantime, you can use this workaround

# I assume that NODE_ENV is in shell variable 
set -o allexport; source ./packages/server/.env.${NODE_ENV}; set +o allexport
task target

The best feature would be have a taskfile to be able to use variables on any yaml section (from vars, env or minima environment vars)
