SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

ArkEnv provides reliable validation and typing for environment variables across modern runtimes, helping developers catch configuration errors before runtime.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Type-safe schemas using ArkType or any Standard Schema validator (such as Zod or Valibot).
  • Framework integrations for Next.js, Vite, Bun, and Node.js to enable build-time validation and type augmentation.
  • CLI tooling to scaffold schemas, detect framework configurations, and optionally generate codegen files for Next.js workflows.

Quick Start

Install ArkEnv and run the CLI to scaffold your env schema and wire it into your framework.

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate environment variables in a Next.js or Vite project?

Type-safe environment variable validation is achieved by defining schemas with ArkType or Standard Schema and wiring them into framework integrations for Next.js, Vite, Bun, or Node.js to catch configuration errors before runtime.

Can I use Zod or Valibot for environment variable schemas instead of ArkType?

Yes, environment variable schemas can be defined using ArkType or any Standard Schema validator like Zod or Valibot to ensure type-safe configuration across modern runtimes.

What is the best way to scaffold environment schemas for modern runtimes?

The best way to scaffold environment schemas is using the CLI tool, which detects framework configurations, generates codegen files for Next.js, and wires schemas into build-time and runtime validation workflows.

How does build-time type augmentation work for environment variables?

Build-time type augmentation applies schema validation during the build process to generate type definitions, delivering end-to-end type safety for environment variables before application runtime.

Do I need a specific framework to catch configuration errors before runtime?

No specific framework is required, but ArkEnv provides tailored integrations for Next.js, Vite, Bun, and Node.js to reliably validate environment variables and catch configuration errors before runtime.
