Is there a way to nest vars with setEnvironment?

[RichardFlanagan]

If we want to add a variable an env, we can do this
altair.helpers.setEnvironment('token', token)

and if we want to pull a nested field from the env we can do
altair.helpers.getEnvironment('auth.token');

is there any way to set a nested var similar to the nested get?
altair.helpers.setEnvironment('auth.token', token)

right now I can achieve it doing something like the below, but a supported helper func would be nice
const auth = altair.helpers.getEnvironment('auth') || {} auth.token = token altair.helpers.setEnvironment('auth', auth)

It's actually not possible to get a nested environment variable with altair.helpers.getEnvironment('auth.token') either it should be possible to support that by using get in getEnvironment helper like we do here.

We can also add support for setting the nested environment variable in the same way. However, there's currently no restriction from using a top level environment variable with a . in the name. We can try checking if the top level variable exists first before falling back to set it in the nested environment variable.

This should be resolved now in the latest version
