dotenv configuration

See original GitHub issue

I am using the latest version of Flask which supports .env files when python-dotenv package is installed. It conflicts with dotenv package vendored within pipenv.

It would be nice to have dont_load_env (default false) at pipenv section within Pipfile so there will be no need to provide PIPENV_DONT_LOAD_ENV=1 every time running pipenv. It would be useful not only in case of Flask usage but in case I want to use python-dotenv on my own.

Pipenv loads .env file using override=True argument so I cannot overwrite environment from CLI: VAR=1 pipenv run ....

It would be great to have dont_override_env (default false) at pipenv section within Pipfile (and PIPENV_DONT_OVERRIDE_ENV environment variable also).

Hmm… So if I want to override some environment variable once for a single command run then I should replace its value within my .env and after that return it back?

I am definitely not accepting a PR that adds a project setting to the pipfile without Kenneth signing off on it, you need to submit a PEEP if you want that.
