It manages projects, environments, secrets, audit data, and process execution with injected environment variables. ### Project history The public DopplerHQ/cli repository was created in October 2019. The README presents it as the official CLI for the Doppler service, and the docs describe it as an open-source lightweight binary available across major operating systems, package managers, and Docker. The CLI matured into a broad distribution surface: Homebrew for macOS, winget and Scoop for Windows, apk, apt, yum, Docker, shell script installation, standalone binaries, and a GitHub Action. GitHub release metadata shows the 3.x line continuing through at least 3.76.0 in April 2026. ### Adoption history Doppler CLI adoption follows the growth of secrets management in local development and CI/CD. Its README explicitly targets local setup, CI jobs, package-manager installs, and applications launched with secrets injected into their environment. ### How it is used Typical usage begins with `doppler login` to create auth credentials and `doppler setup` to select a project and config for the current directory. Users then run commands or applications through the CLI so secrets are supplied as environment variables. ### Why package nerds care Doppler CLI is package-nerd significant because it is a security-sensitive vendor CLI with unusually broad install paths and signature-aware packaging. It is the kind of package where update channels, shell installers, OS package repositories, and CI friendliness all matter. ### Timeline - 2019: The public DopplerHQ/cli repository is created. - 2020s: The CLI gains package-manager, shell-script, Docker, standalone binary, and GitHub Action install paths. - 2025: Release metadata shows active 3.75.x releases. - 2026: Release metadata shows 3.76.0 published in April. ### Related projects - Related projects include Doppler, Doppler CLI Action, Doppler package repositories, Docker images, shell-script installers, winget, Scoop, Homebrew, apk, apt, and yum. ### Sources - - - - - - ## Security Notes narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger risk:** green / low - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
