Getting Data from .env File

I created a new Sapphire app using the CLI. I am using swc. And, I want to ask how do access env variables in my bot? The project contains a

src/.env

src/.env

file . So, naturally, I thought to put my discord token there and access it in my

src/index.ts

src/index.ts

file as follows.

const main = async () => {
    try {
        client.logger.info('Logging in');
        await client.login(process.env.DISCORD_TOKEN);
        client.logger.info('logged in');
    } catch (error) {
        client.logger.fatal(error);
        await client.destroy();
        process.exit(1);
    }
};

const main = async () => {
    try {
        client.logger.info('Logging in');
        await client.login(process.env.DISCORD_TOKEN);
        client.logger.info('logged in');
    } catch (error) {
        client.logger.fatal(error);
        await client.destroy();
        process.exit(1);
    }
};

However, running this throws an error :

Error [TokenInvalid]: An invalid token was provided.

Error [TokenInvalid]: An invalid token was provided.

. However, it runs if I pass the discord token as a string literal to the

client.login()

client.login()

method. So, this tells me the

src/.env

src/.env

file isn't getting included in the compiled source code. And, upon reviewing the outputted

'dist

'dist

folder, it appears this is the case.

How would I fix this? Or, is there a different way I am supposed to access environment variables?

Solution

which is why i was saying to try

export const rootDir = join(__dirname, '..', '..', '..');

export const rootDir = join(__dirname, '..', '..', '..');
