Google App Engine Flexible Environent - how to use env variables from app.yml when running locally

when i run the app locally, obviously the variables from app.yml are not injected into process.env , whats the correct way to get around this ?

runtime: nodejs env: flex service: email

 env_variables:
   PUBSUB_TOPIC: dev-xxx

   PUBSUB_VERIFICATION_TOKEN: <your-verification-token>

The best way to do this is to not use app.yaml for environment variables. Instead, I suggest using nconf and a json file like we do in the samples.
