or just pretty json:

# yields...

{
  "foo": {
    "bar": {
      "baz": [
        0,
        1,
        2,
        3,
        {
          "bar": [
            "okay",
            "that",
            "is",
            "enough"
          ]
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

whatever you want, really.

λ : here-json -p < .env | sed 's,_,-,' | tr 'A-Z' 'a-z'

# yields...

{
  "node-env": "development",
  "api-url": "https://api.walkthrough.com",
  "oauth-client_id": "walkthrough",
  "oauth-client_secret": "this-is-a-secret"
}

you can even output yaml.

λ : here-json -y < .env | sed 's,_,-,' | tr 'A-Z' 'a-z'

# yields...

  node-env: "development"
  api-url: "https://api.walkthrough.com"
