mise set

• Usage: mise set [FLAGS] [ENV_VAR]…
• Source code: src/cli/set.rs

Set environment variables in mise.toml

By default, this command modifies mise.toml in the current directory. If multiple config files exist (e.g., both mise.toml and mise.local.toml), the lowest precedence file (mise.toml) will be used. See https://mise.jdx.dev/configuration.html#target-file-for-write-operations

Use -E <env> to create/modify environment-specific config files like mise.<env>.toml.

Arguments

[ENV_VAR]…

Environment variable(s) to set e.g.: NODE_ENV=production

Flags

-E --env <ENV>

Create/modify an environment-specific config file like .mise.<env>.toml

-g --global

Set the environment variable in the global config file

--age-encrypt

--age-key-file <PATH>

Defaults to ~/.config/mise/age.txt if it exists

--age-recipient… <RECIPIENT>

--age-ssh-recipient… <PATH_OR_PUBKEY>

[experimental] SSH recipient (public key or path) for age encryption

Can be used multiple times. Requires --age-encrypt.

--file <FILE>

The TOML file to update

Can be a file path or directory. If a directory is provided, will create/use mise.toml in that directory. Defaults to MISE_DEFAULT_CONFIG_FILENAME environment variable, or mise.toml.

--prompt

--stdin

$ mise set NODE_ENV=production

$ mise set NODE_ENV
production

$ mise set -E staging NODE_ENV=staging
# creates or modifies mise.staging.toml

$ mise set
key       value       source
NODE_ENV  production  ~/.config/mise/config.toml

$ mise set --prompt PASSWORD
Enter value for PASSWORD: [hidden input]

Multiline Values (--stdin):

$ cat private.key | mise set --stdin MY_KEY

$ printf "line1\nline2" | mise set --stdin MY_KEY

$ mise set --age-encrypt API_KEY=secret

$ mise set --age-encrypt --prompt API_KEY
Enter value for API_KEY: [hidden input]
