How to handle ENV variables for CI? about react-native-template-obytes HOT 5 OPEN

You just need to add them as global environment variables in your repository, and the script should read them from the system. please try it and let me know in case it's not working as expected

I just read this guide - https://starter.obytes.com/ci-cd/app-releasing-process/

It says for a QA release I have to run prebuild:staging and then build:staging:__ commands. (Similar flow for production).

It further says:

The above commands will generate the required credentials for the build and store them in EAS servers so that we can use them later to trigger the build from GitHub actions.

Does this mean that for every QA/production release I have to run the build locally -- So that the env variables for a particular environment are updated on the eas servers?

I understand that clientEnv is being added to app.config.ts as follows but how is this made available to the eas servers for different environments?

extra: {
    ...ClientEnv,
    eas: {
      projectId: Env.EAS_PROJECT_ID,
    },
  },

How does eas handle env variables for different environments? I am a little confused with the release flow.

Thank you for this amazing starter! Its a life saver 💟
