NAME

envsubst − substitutes environment variables in shell format strings

SYNOPSIS

envsubst [OPTION] [SHELL-FORMAT]

DESCRIPTION

Substitutes the values of environment variables.

Operation mode:

**
−v**, −−variables

output the variables occurring in SHELL−FORMAT

Informative output:

−h, −−help

display this help and exit

−V, −−version

output version information and exit

In normal operation mode, standard input is copied to standard output, with references to environment variables of the form $VARIABLE or ${VARIABLE} being replaced with the corresponding values. If a SHELL−FORMAT is given, only those environment variables that are referenced in SHELL−FORMAT are substituted; otherwise all environment variables references occurring in standard input are substituted.

When −−variables is used, standard input is ignored, and the output consists of the environment variables that are referenced in SHELL−FORMAT, one per line.
