To create an Gitpod development environment, first create the workspace:
Then create a Service Token for the dev config and copy the token value and configure the Gitpod workspace by running:
npm run gitpod-config
Then start the application in development mode:
npm run gitpod
To populate the terminal with the $DOPPLER_TOKEN
environment variable without restarting the workspace, run:
source <(echo 'export DOPPLER_TOKEN="$(gp env | grep DOPPLER_TOKEN | cut -d '=' -f 2)"')
