Issue
Segment Analytics provides a snippet with a secret API key in it. In my Nuxt.js
project I created a plugin called segment.js
which I registered in my nuxt.config.js
:
nuxt.config.js
plugins: [
{
src: "~/plugins/segment.js",
mode: 'client'
}
]
In my plugins/segment.js
file I have my snippet:
!function(){var analytics=window.analytics=...analytics.SNIPPET_VERSION="4.13.2";
analytics.load(process.env.SEGMENT_API_SECRET);
analytics.page();
}}();
Obviously I don't want to have my secret API key exposed there so I have it stored in my .env
file instead:
.env
SEGMENT_API_SECRET=FR4....GSDF3S
Problem: process.env.SEGMENT_API_SECRET
in plugins/segment.js
is undefined
so the snippet doesn't work. How can I access my .env
variable SEGMENT_API_SECRET
from my plugin plugins/segment.js
?
Solution
Set your env variable into nuxt.config.js
export default {
publicRuntimeConfig: {
segmentApiSecret: process.env.SEGMENT_API_SECRET,
}
}
And then, this one should do the trick
// segment.js
export default ({ $config: { segmentApiSecret } }) => {
!function(){var analytics=window.analytics=...analytics.SNIPPET_VERSION="4.13.2";
analytics.load(segmentApiSecret);
analytics.page();
}}();
}
