Type definitions and documentation for Bun, an incredibly fast JavaScript runtime

---
name: Read environment variables
---

The current environment variables can be accessed via `process.env`.

```ts
process.env.API_TOKEN; // => "secret"
```

---

Bun also exposes these variables via `Bun.env`, which is a simple alias of `process.env`.

```ts
Bun.env.API_TOKEN; // => "secret"
```

---

To print all currently-set environment variables to the command line, run `bun --print process.env`. This is useful for debugging.

```sh
$ bun --print process.env
BAZ=stuff
FOOBAR=aaaaaa
<lots more lines>
```
