Parse your .env using Zod

Zod is a type-safety schema validator with super great DX and makes life easier in various way.

npm install zod       # npm
yarn add zod          # yarn

With Zod we can define schemas, like we used to do with Yup, and parse them to make sure that schema is met. Let's take a look at the simplest way to use it:

import { z } from 'zod'

const myStringSchema = z.string()

// let's try to parse some values
myStringSchema.parse('ilher') // this will return our 'ilher' since it's a valid value
myStringSchema.parse(0) // this will throw

We can even define and parse objects:

import { z } from 'zod'

const CoolObjectSchema = z.object({
  hello: z.string(),
})

CoolObjectSchema.parse({ hello: 'world' })
