Cant load settings file in chalice application

Hi, I am trying to use dynaconf to load config file in a chalice application

I have this folder structure:

chalice_app
└── .env
└── app.py
└── chalicelib
    ├── config
    ├── main.py
    └── settings.toml

in app.py:

#app.py
from dynaconf import settings

print(settings["APP_NAME"])

and settings.toml:

#settings.toml
[default]
APP_NAME="chalice_app"

I tried defining SETTINGS_FILE_FOR_DYNACONF and APP_NAME in .env

SETTINGS_FILE_FOR_DYNACONF=chalicelib/settings.toml

But its not able to find APP_NAME Also its not able lo load .env from root directory or from chalicelib

Hello, I was able to make it work with this setup: https://github.com/dcifuen/chalice-dynaconf-helloworld

That is great @dcifuen we need to add this to the docs, I will include a new section in the docs for those kind of examples.
