std::env

Macro std::env

macro_rules! env {
    ($name:expr) => { ... };
}

Inspect an environment variable at compile time.

This macro will expand to the value of the named environment variable at compile time, yielding an expression of type &'static str.

If the environment variable is not defined, then a compilation error will be emitted. To not emit a compile error, use the option_env! macro instead.

Examples

let path: &'static str = env!("PATH");
println!("the $PATH variable at the time of compiling was: {}", path);
