ENVFILE must be set

[xgenem]

When I first setup the package in my RN project it was working fine. But somehow along the way the values I am reading from Config become undefined even though I have .env file.

Setting ENVFILE=.env fixed it for me.

$ ENVFILE=.env react-native run-android
$ ENVFILE=.env react-native run-ios

Think this should be added in DOCS?

Where should i set ENVFILE=.env? its working fine in android debug mode but in release its not reading .env values

Hi @Lakshmi254 you wanna make sure that when it build it's getting the values inside the .env file.

Make sure you did the EXTRA STEP for Android.
Edit android/app/build.gradle

// 2nd line, add a new apply:
apply from: project(':react-native-config').projectDir.getPath() + "/dotenv.gradle"

@xgenem even with the extra steps my env is wrong. Happens just in android. My issue here

The reason is because

ReactConfig: Could not find BuildConfig class

Have lib check for default config with different name than '.env'

This is what the command line is doing when you set ENVFILE=".env.renamed", Android Studio gets it though app/build.gradle.

# in app/build.gradle, above project.ext.envConfigFiles

project.ext.defaultEnvFile = "../__scripts__/.env.dev"

Add if you're using proguard and noticing not seeing things in release builds:

-keep class com.ea.gp.brooklyn.BuildConfig { *; }
