Expand description

Fetches the environment variable key from the current process, returning None if the variable isn’t set or there’s another error.

Errors

This function returns an error if the environment variable isn’t set.

This function may return an error if the environment variable’s name contains the equal sign character (=) or the NUL character.

This function may return an error if the environment variable’s value contains the NUL character.

Examples

use std::env;

let key = "HOME";
match env::var_os(key) {
    Some(val) => println!("{}: {:?}", key, val),
    None => println!("{} is not defined in the environment.", key)
}
