Of course, this file should not be tracked by git (put it in your `.gitignore`).
Then you can invoke dotdrop with the help of an alias like that:
Then you can invoke dotdrop with the help of an alias when using dotdrop as a submodule:
```
## when using dotdrop as a submodule
alias dotdrop='eval $(grep -v "^#" ~/dotfiles/.env) ~/dotfiles/dotdrop.sh'
## when using dotdrop from pypi
alias dotdrop='eval $(grep -v "^#" ~/dotfiles/.env) dotdrop --cfg=~/dotfiles/config.yaml'
```
This loads all the variables from `.env` (while omitting lines starting with `#`) before calling dotdrop.
When using dotdrop from pypi or aur, the absolute path to the binary should be used in the alias to avoid recursion issues
```
alias dotdrop='eval $(grep -v "^#" ~/dotfiles/.env) /usr/bin/dotdrop --cfg=~/dotfiles/config.yaml'
```
The above aliases load all the variables from `~/dotfiles/.env` (while omitting lines starting with `#`) before calling dotdrop.
