How do I set the value of process.env.SOME_KEY=some value
in the operating system and then read it in my node application? I am running on Windows.
I tried these steps:
SET SOME_KEY=abc
npm start
But when I try to read process.env.SOME_KEY
, I am getting "undefined".
How do I set a env value and how do i read that in my code?
Try this: https://www.npmjs.com/package/dotenv
All you need to do is add a .env with your environment variables, and require('dotenv').config()
as soon as you can in your application (the script called by npm start would be a good place)
