It took me a bit to understand your request, but I think I got it:

The sqlx README has a hyperlink to dotenv-rs/dotenv. This repo does not have an example of the .env file (or environment variable). You would like that included in the README of this repo.

Is that correct?

If so, I could add an example to dotenvy's README like so:

FOO=bar
MEANING_OF_LIFE=42

And then you could open a PR for sqlx.

I'd also suggest linking to the repo page itself (https://github.com/allan2/dotenvy) rather than a section, since the README is rather short (and will stay that way).

This is the exact same place I came from. I was using sqlx, and I saw the dotenv deprecation. I found this repository, and at the time I wanted to make an issue for this. I didn't end up having the time to find whether an issue for it already existed, but now I have.

@allan2 what you're stating is exactly what chmorgan means, and is the issue that prevents sqlx from using this repository for the documentation.

What, if anything, is preventing #98 from being merged? That will close both this issue and the allow merge of the corresponding PR on sqlx.
