Loading env vars in `astro-config.mjs`

[regal cargo]

I followed what the docs say about this topic

https://docs.astro.build/en/guides/configuring-astro/#environment-variables

Hey @regal cargo, did you solve your issue? You followed the docs but it didn't work?

[regal cargo]

i figured something else

thanks tho

but I didn't resolve my issue like docs stated using the loadEnv helper function

for some reason the vite package cannot be found

when you import the loadEnv

[latent falcon]

That's probably saying that you need to install vite

But either way, that snippet of code doesn't look right to me

[regal cargo]

yep

i was thinking that vite is a peer dependency and somehow injected within astro package

but it turns out

that it isn't

[latent falcon]

import.meta.env doesn't mean anything outside of vite, so accessing should always return undefined

[regal cargo]

this only works ont he client side

not for server side

i'm playing around with the TigrisDB integration that they build for Astro

that's why i wanted to inject the env vars within the config file

until i found about this

[latent falcon]

Ah ok, it looks very cool btw

[regal cargo]

this snippet doesn't work

if you try to import that loadEnv helper

you will not receive it

[latent falcon]

Yup it doesn't seem it would

If you have a minute to file an issue it would be very appreciated!

[regal cargo]

I will open an issue about it
