Add comments to secrets

Open vmatsiiako opened this issue 2 years ago • 5 comments

Feature description

In traditional .env files, it is possible to add comments that explain certain things about environment variables. It would be amazing if Infisical had something like 'comments/notes' that can be attached to every environment variable.

Why would it be useful?

Sometime people want to add reminders or explanations to certain environment variables.

Additional context

This would require both frontend and backend work

@naorpeled Go for it 🙂

Also do join our Slack community!

We'd be happy to chat more about Infisical and contributions there; we also do initial pairing sessions to get more familiar with the codebase if you want 🙂

Btw, we have a branch (dashboard-sidebar) where I'm changing how Dashboard looks like a little bit. Yesterday, I have created a quick potential design for comments. Let me know what you think :)

Feel free to work from this branch if you want
