Export settings to guest using environment variables

[pcriv]

I'm having a hard time understanding how to do this automatically, is this posible?

You are talking about this section right?

What do you mean by automatically? What platform are you on? This will help me tailor the answer for your particular setup :)

Sorry, i should be more explicit, i use vagrant on windows, and by automatically i mean that when i provision the vm, my nugrant config parameters get created or updated as ENV on the vm.
Does this need and extra step to any of the methods described in the docs?

The current ENV support written in the documentation is for environment population in the host system. This means they would not be available in the guest system, i.e. the VM. You can check issue-13 for the issue for which this feature was implemented.

For the ENV export to the guest system, if it's something you would use, I will happily check how could I support this. I'm pretty sure they is something in Vagrant I could leverage to implement this. I will change the title of this issue to reflect that.

I will ping you when I have something.
