Launch a subprocess with environment variables using data from AWS S3 or AWS parameter store.
Envaws provides a convenient way to launch a subprocess with environment variables populated from AWS services S3 and SSM. The tool is inspired by envconsul.
Envaws supports 12-factor applications which get their configuration via the environment. Environment variables are dynamically populated from S3 or SSM, but the application is unaware; applications just read environment variables. This enables extreme flexibility and portability for applications across systems.
