Travis-ci decryption of encrypted files

Question

I encrypted my .env file, and I now have a .env.enc file. How does my team decrypt this? I got this response when I encrypted the file, and it is stored in my .

Answer 1

Check the output of travis encrypt-file !

Especially the first line:

encrypting <filename> for <repository name>
[..]

You need to be in the correct repo (and use --com if needed) to be sure that Travis will find the generated values it later needs.

Answer 2

Your file is probably decrypted somewhere during the build on Travis. It might be easiest to add a deploy step to the build, so the .env file is uploaded to a place where you can download it yourself.

For details on how to deploy files, check this link or this one specifically for github

Here's a short sample of what I did ;)

in .travis.yml

before_install:
  // Somewhere your files are being decrypted 
  openssl aes-256-cbc -K $encrypted_cf94abc85bdc_key -iv $encrypted_cf94abc85bdc_iv -in .env.enc -out .env -d

// Add a deploy step, which allows you which files to upload
deploy:
  file: 
  - .env  /* add the file here, so it will be pushed to github */
  api_key: $apikey
  on:
    repo: <your github repo>
