A .NET project located at: ~/projects/my-project

Targeting the default output: secrets.env (in the current working directory)

The command would be:

dotnet user-secrets list --project ~/projects/my-project | dockenv

---

Generating base64-encoded values

A .NET project located at: ~/projects/my-project

Targeting an output located at: ~/projects/my-project/secrets.env

The command would be:

dotnet user-secrets list --project ~/projects/my-project | dockenv -o ~/projects/my-project/secrets.env -b64

---

Overwriting an existing .env file

A .NET project located at: ~/projects/my-project

Targeting an (already existing) output located at: ~/projects/my-project/secrets.env

The command would be:
