Mina: How to ENV variables

I agree, an environment_variables should be available to provide variables shared across commands while deploying.

Maybe you can set the bundle_bin variable to add the environment variables:

set :bundle_bin, 'GUSER=xxx GPASS=yyy bundle'

set :bundle_bin, 'GUSER=xxx GPASS=yyy bundle'

this is OK !!!! Thanks

Try:

task :env do
queue %[NAME="hello"]
end

As stated earlier, this should work:

task :env do
   queue %[NAME="hello"]
end

Also, if you want to put it in .bashrc instead (IMHO a much better idea!), you should export the variables:

# .bashrc
export NAME="hello"

Can you believe there is still no environment variable option? Goodness grief! Well, I think we may fork this thang and add an env-var option but until then we are using a big time hack.

We store our variables locally in an .env file

under the settings we put:

# Non-cowboys, don't try this in production.
set :ssh_options, %{export #{File.open(".env").readlines.map(&:chomp).join(" ")}}

You get the gist and can make it pretty yourself. This is one way to Heroku-tize our deploy.

Happy hacking,
Best.

I use Figaro

require 'yaml'

set :var_from_env, -> { YAML.load_file("./config/application.yml")["ENV_VAR"] }

@rstacruz

May I ask is there a doc for task :env do? It does not append ENV setting in the command.

I used set :bundle_prefix to achieve this.

@lulalala thanks, it worked for me!

I set bundle_prefix like this:

set :bundle_prefix, 'env $(cat .env | xargs) bundle exec '
