Unable to load .env in cwd

[Dog2657]

I'm unable to access my .env file which is placed in the cwd. Only in docker compose with the env_file set can I access my env vars.

My project layout

.
├── .env
├── app/
│   ├── src/
│   ├── build.rs
│   ├── Cargo.lock
│   ├── Cargo.toml
│   └── Dockerfile
└── docker-compose.yml

My code

#[macro_use] extern crate rocket;

mod lib { 
    pub mod templator;
}

mod signup;

use dotenv;

use std::env;

#[launch]
fn rocket() -> _ {
    dotenv::dotenv().ok();

    let my_var = env::var("Discord-Client-Id").expect("MY_VAR not found");

    println!("\n\nMY_VAR: {}\n\n", my_var);

    rocket::build()
        .mount("/", signup::get_routes())
}

Output

MY_VAR not found: NotPresent
