The ngenv tool streamlines the process of using ngrok to expose local services to the internet, enabling secure HTTPS connections for local development environments. By automating ngrok tunnel creation and seamlessly integrating the public URLs into project .env files, it facilitates easy and secure testing of webhooks, APIs, and services directly from a developer's machine.

ngrok-to-dotenv

This is a ngrok start-up wrapper that uses a dotenv file to get the authtoken and save the https address; it's a node cli tool that you can use with projects that need ngrok. You clone it into your project's folder, and setup a package.json script to call "cd ngrok-to-dotenv && node ngrok". Be sure to add the folder to your .gitignore and and install the one package which is ngrok, with 'npm -i' or 'yarn'.
