5 years ago[26] Dotenv from file broke in 2.0x
I've tried following this exactly on a few builds in 2.0x but it seems it's broke:
https://developer.1password.com/docs/cli/guides/environment-variables/#option-2-env-dotenv-file
[ERROR] 2021/12/10 17:20:40 Can't separate key from value
I've tried various ways and confirmed it's meeting the syntax rules.
$ op --version 2.0.0-beta.7
Could someone else verify as well?
1Password Version: 2.0.0-beta.7
Extension Version: Not Provided

I was able to reproduce this issue, after running your steps. I still got the error and suspected it must somehow be tied to my bash environment. Long and behold it was after unsetting certain vars. The one in question was
PROMPT_COMMANDPROMPT_COMMAND=_direnv_hook;_kube_ps1_update_cache;history -a; history -n; history -a; history -n;Looks like when
optraverses the environment variables, thats what it was getting caught on. I suspect this is the bug that should be looked into. - Former Member
@chrisgoffinet Hello 👋 - the CLI 2.0 beta is still in closed access right now so we've moved your thread over to this private forum and given you access. Justin replied here so I just wanted to make sure you saw his reply!

Hey @chrisgoffinet
I would be happy to offer some assistance.
I've just tested using the .env file as per the examples:
```
pre-req: a Database item titled "mysql" in a vault called "prod" with the database, username, and password fields filled out
create .env file and add the 3 secrets to it from the example
touch .env
echo "MYSQL_DATABASE = op://prod/mysql/database" >> .env
echo "MYSQL_USERNAME = op://prod/mysql/username" >> .env
echo "MYSQL_PASSWORD = op://prod/mysql/password" >> .envrun
op runto see if it can print the secretsop run --dotenv --no-masking -- printenv MYSQL_DATABASE
```And it is working correctly for me on the beta-7 version.
Could you provide an example similar to one of the lines in your .env file?
