Unable to set default value for a JSON env variable about envalid HOT 5 CLOSED

Do JSON.stringify around your object

from envalid.

Try a JSON string for your default values (not an object). I think that should fix the error.

For example:

default: `{
  "product_name": "ACME Software v1.0",
  ...(rest of json string here)
}`

from envalid.

@af unfortunately, it does not work. I'm getting the same error message: Invalid json.

from envalid.

@SimenB it worked, thanks!

P.S. I think maybe we should add an example to the README.md.

Sure, PR welcome 🙂
