Hi, thanks for the great project!
I'd like to request support for loading environment variable values from files, following a common pattern used in Docker environments—especially with secrets mounted at /run/secrets/.
The idea is to allow specifying variables like this:
AUTOKUMA__KUMA__PASSWORD_FILE=/run/secrets/kuma_password
Instead of directly setting the value in an environment variable:
AUTOKUMA__KUMA__PASSWORD_FILE=@kuma_password
Many applications (e.g., Docker official images) support this *_FILE convention by checking if a variable like VARIABLE_FILE exists, and if so, reading the contents of the specified file and using that as the value for VARIABLE.
This makes it easier and safer to handle sensitive data like API keys, credentials, etc., when deploying in containerized environments.
Would you consider adding support for this pattern?
Thanks again!
