Welcome to the react-native-dotenv wiki!

Docs TODOs

• make sure to add metro (I dont remember why)

module.exports = {
  "presets": ["module:metro-react-native-babel-preset"],
  "plugins": [
    ["module:react-native-dotenv"]
  ]
}

• for typescript, set moduleName to react-native-dotenv, clear cache
• jest --no-cache
• encourage people to use NODE_ENV instead of APP_ENV
• add windows instructions for APP_ENV=
• is there a way to automatically install as babel plugin not preset?
• is there a way to automatically install as devDependency not regular dependency?
• --env-file=.env
• react-native clean
• don't use APP_ENV unless you've first tried NODE_ENV
• this won't work when you do react-native run-android or react-native run-ios, but it's okay because you just need to run the command once to do the initial build. After that point, you should be able to build changes using react-native start where this will work
• api.cache(false) resets babel cache and --reset-cache resets all caches. the latter is slower, but doesn't fully clear the caches so reset-cache is needed
• NODE_ENV=custom works for npm start, NODE_ENV=custom doesn't work for run-android, APP_ENV=custom works for run-android, you must run npm start between each time you run npm run-android

module.exports = function(api) {
api.cache(false)
}
