Access the current environment variables with `process.env` or `Bun.env`.
```ts index.ts icon="/icons/typescript.svg"
Bun.env.API_TOKEN; // => "secret"
process.env.API_TOKEN; // => "secret"
```
---
Set these variables in a `.env` file.
Bun reads the following files automatically (listed in order of increasing precedence).
- `.env`
- `.env.production`, `.env.development`, `.env.test` (depending on value of `NODE_ENV`)
- `.env.local` (not loaded when `NODE_ENV=test`)
- `.env.production.local`, `.env.development.local`, `.env.test.local` (depending on value of `NODE_ENV`)
```ini .env icon="settings"
FOO=hello
BAR=world
```
---
You can also set variables on the command line.
<CodeGroup>
```sh Linux/macOS icon="terminal"
FOO=helloworld bun run dev
```
```sh Windows icon="windows"
# Using CMD
set FOO=helloworld && bun run dev
# Using PowerShell
$env:FOO="helloworld"; bun run dev
```
</CodeGroup>
