Introduction

This project collects both raw and parsed environment variables available during a runtime execution and presents them in a developer-friendly structure. It solves the problem of opaque runtime configuration by making environment data visible, traceable, and easy to analyze. It is ideal for developers, DevOps engineers, and QA teams who need clarity around execution environments.

Runtime Environment Visibility

  • Captures all available environment variables at execution time
  • Separates raw values from parsed, normalized values
  • Outputs data in structured formats for inspection and logging
  • Designed for quick debugging and configuration validation

Features

Feature Description
Raw environment capture Collects all runtime environment variables exactly as provided.
Parsed environment output Normalizes and parses environment values into structured fields.
Structured storage Saves environment data in consistent, machine-readable formats.
Logging support Outputs key environment details directly to logs for quick access.
Debug-friendly design Makes configuration issues easy to detect and trace.

What Data This Scraper Extracts

Field Name Field Description
rawEnv Complete key-value map of raw environment variables.
parsedEnv Parsed and normalized environment values.
runtimeMetadata Execution timing and runtime-related metadata.
systemConfig Memory, CPU, and execution configuration values.

Example Output

Use Cases

  • Backend developers use it to inspect runtime variables, so they can debug configuration issues faster.
  • DevOps engineers use it to validate deployment environments, ensuring correct resource and system settings.
  • QA teams use it to verify test environment consistency, reducing configuration-related test failures.
  • Platform engineers use it to audit runtime context, improving reliability across environments.

FAQs

Q: Does this tool modify environment variables? No. It is strictly read-only and only captures existing runtime values for inspection.

Q: Can sensitive values be masked? Yes. Sensitive fields such as tokens or passwords can be masked before storage or logging.

Q: Is this suitable for production environments? Yes. It is lightweight and designed to run safely in production for diagnostics and auditing.
