Allows `parse_dotenv(stream=StringIO())` by alanjds · Pull Request #78 · theskumar/python-dotenv
This looks good. parse_dotenv is not considered a public api as of yet, but I think it's high time we do so.
Some tests are failing due to installation flake8 issues on travis for python 3.4, that I'll fix up.
Would it be possible for you to add some test cases and related documentation as well, for this so others can followup and use this functionality.
