I am trying to set a Heroku config variable that contains the special character $
but I do not know how to properly escape it. I tried encapsulating it in quotes but got the same result.
Example:
heroku config:set EMAIL_PASSWORD=xxxxx$xxxxxxxx
=> EMAIL_PASSWORD: xxxxx
heroku config:set EMAIL_PASSWORD="xxxxx$xxxxxxxx"
=> EMAIL_PASSWORD: xxxxx
Assuming you are using Bash (which is likely if you are on Mac or Linux) you can use single quotes to escape strings with $
, or use \
:
$ echo $FOO
$ echo "$FOO"
$ echo '$FOO'
$FOO
$ echo \$FOO
$FOO
