The app loads environment variables and behaves accordingly. It uses dotenv to loads values from files (e.g. .env, .env.development.local, .env.production). Platforms like heroku also allow you to set env variables in the configuration panel.

authentication

The app loads password from ENV['PASSWORD'], which is password by default, as defined in .env.

available services

To enable performance analytics by skylight, set environment vars SKYLIGHT_ENABLED=true and SKYLIGHT_AUTHENTICATION=YOUR_TOKEN.

To enable sentry for error tracking, set an environment var SENTRY_DSN=YOUR_SENTRY_DSN.
