storing gmail_token and client_secret in .env

[YoYo-Russ]

Hey all,

I've been trying to store the contents of my gmail token and client secret files in a .env.

Has anyone had any success doing this because my current plan was to import dotenv to simplegmail.gmail and inside the Gmail() class change the current client_secret_file: and creds_file: str from their current values to those from the .env but I'm having no luck and think it might be down to the fact that they're json and not strings.

Can anyone point me in the direction of fixing this? (Or indeed to a better method if one exists).
