[FIXED] How to access environment variables located in .env - React Native

Issue

I currently have .env file in which I am saving api keys and such (not actual keys in the example below):

API_URL=https://www.example.si/3000
IOS_API_KEY=738d7hfu3hffsjfsd
STRIPE_KEY=pk_fh843f483ff3f43f34
APP_ID=pk_fh843f483ff3f43f34

I need to access these keys in my AppDelegate.m file.

I've tried the following:

NSString *AppID = @(getenv("APP_ID"));

But it didn't work.I get an error : "***+[NSString stringWithUTF8String:] NULL cString" .

I cannot use variable as @"AppID" where I want to pass it in. Any ideas on how to solve this issue would be helpful.

Solution

I ended up using a library for this, called react-native-config:

https://github.com/luggit/react-native-config

and it works really well. It also has a system in place to avoid delayed (state based) caching so as soon as you save .env file there is no chance of remembering the previous state of .env file.

[FIXED] Can't get variables to work in Wordpress for Intercom Javascript

Issue

Intercom provide the following snippet to be injected before the body tag:

<script>
  window.intercomSettings = {
    app_id: "",
    name: "<?php echo json_encode($current_user->name) ?>", // Full name
    email: "<?php echo json_encode($current_user->email) ?>", // Email address
    created_at: "<?php echo strtotime($current_user->created_at) ?>" // Signup date as a Unix timestamp
  };
</script>

However, it creates the launcher with an error; stating to check the email variable. What should the variable be for Wordpress?

Solution

It's not meant to be injected before body, it has to be before the body close tag .

<script>
  window.intercomSettings = {
    app_id: "",
    name: "<?=wp_get_current_user()->user_login?>", // Full name
    email: "<?=wp_get_current_user()->user_email?>", // Email address
    created_at: "<?=strtotime(wp_get_current_user()->created_at)?>" // Signup date as a Unix timestamp
  };
</script>
</body>
