Environment variables?

[adambedford]

Is it possible to access environment variables somehow within the Ember app, particularly environment.js?

@adambedford Yes, you can access them in the environment.js. Every ENV variable is accessible in your environment.js.

Ex. You can access your RAILS env variables using the process env.

module.exports = function(environment) {
  ...
   // could be any of the env variables you set in your rails app 
  // when running inside the Rails process.
   var ENV = {
       randomEnvVariable: process.env.RAILS_ENV 
       ...
   }
  ...
   return ENV;
};

Best regards,
Daniel

Docs do state that RAILS_ENV is removed in the production build.

Hey @darylalexjohnson,

But the rest of the ENV VARIABLES are available, don't they?
