Special handling for process.env? about rewire

[dhensby]

I hadn't read the caveats, so hadn't seen that recommendation 🤦‍♂️

That is essentially how I modify the env object now, so if that's the right approach, then we can just close this. Cheers.

Damn, that sucks. Didn't know Node does this :)

Assignments to properties using the dot notation are discouraged (as noted in the caveats section) as they mutate the actual process object (you could alternatively just override process.env in your test).

Does it work for you if you call __set__ like this?

const revert = rewiredModule.__set__({
  process: {
    ...process,
    env: {
      ...process.env,
     MY_ENV: "my value"
    }
  }
});
