Google App Engine Flexible - environment variables

Question

if I have my circle-ci deplying to google with e.g. \'gcloud app deploy app.yaml\' is there a simple way I can pass a dev / prod variable and have it replaced in my app.yml

Answer 1

Sadly there really isn't a good way to do this. I'd actually suggest not using app.yaml for this purpose, and instead using a json file and nconf. That's how we do it in all of our nodejs samples.

Hope this helps!
