envstore

store for environment variables across shell processes

envstore allows you to save environment variables into a separate store, list them, and reload them into the (other) shell again. It therefore provides a way to share them in cases where exporting to child processes is not feasible. Included is envify, a shell script which loads the environment saved with envstore and then executes the command given to it. A classic use case is MPD_HOST for clients of the Music Player Daemon. Commands to control the MPD would be wrapped with envify. If the MPD_HOST were then changed in envstore, it would automatically be used.

Install the latest version of envstore in Debian, Ubuntu, Kali and Raspbian from terminal. To install the envstore just copy the above command for your OS and run into terminal. After you run the command it will grab the latest version of envstore from the respository and install it in your computer/server.
