How to include environment variable in a snippet?

[jimcornmell]

Is it possible to include any environment variable in a snippet definition json file eg $HOME:

Not sure what the syntax would be $HOME or maybe $ENV['HOME'] or even $somefunc("HOME") ?

{
  "A Description": {
    "prefix": "home",
    "body": [
         "$HOME",
         "$ENV['HOME']"
    ],
....
}

Not if the snippet is defined in lsp-syntax, you'll have to use lua for that.
But this seems like a nice addition, could you open an issue to track it?
(extending the lsp-variables is already almost possible, see #464, but I think just adding environment variables to "core"-luasnip (eg not via some user-defined function) would be a nicer approach)

Thanks for the quick response, I've created #476 for you.
