 Lily Foster | one sec, i'll come up with an adjustment to include that | 22:44:13 |
| Lily Foster | In reply to @peter-lustig:matrix.org
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh why are deployments always so complicated because projects like sveltekit are apparently really interested in making it that way 🫠| 22:44:27 |
 Cobalt | You can get around it by producing a wrapper that sets the relevant vars, https://gitlab.cobalt.rocks/nix/proofbuddy.nix/-/blob/main/flake.nix?ref_type=heads#L121. It's not pretty but has been proven to work for our vite+turbopack and (previously) CRA setup | 22:47:45 |
| Lily Foster | Yeah just don't use .env in production tbh | 22:48:40 |
| Lily Foster | If you're running by like a systemd service, then you can set env vars there | 22:48:48 |
| Lily Foster | In reply to @lily:lily.flowers
Yeah just don't use .env in production tbh (possible hot take, sorry 😅) | 22:49:12 |
 peter-lustig | that probably complicates stuff even more | 22:50:20 |
| Lily Foster | i mean how are you running it now? | 22:51:17 |
| peter-lustig | all these build scripts are so user unfriendly | 22:51:18 |
| peter-lustig | only experts can know how to do stuff | 22:51:24 |
| peter-lustig | like you | 22:51:26 |
 daniel | https://nodejs.org/en/blog/release/v20.6.0
There is built-in support for env files. No need for dotenv | 22:54:10 |

| Lily Foster | so yeah i guess you could just change the makeWrapper to this:
makeWrapper ${pkgs.nodejs-slim_20}/bin/node $out/bin/sveltepackage \
--add-flags --env-file=.env \
--add-flags $out/lib/node_modules/sveltepackage
| 22:55:53 |
| Lily Foster | if you reallyyy need to do complicated .env file stuff from the current dir | 22:56:08 |
| daniel | I'm successfully deploying a SvelteKit project without issues using buildNpmPackage, can be seen here: https://github.com/danielalvsaaker/tf-viewer-net/blob/main/frontend/default.nix | 22:56:11 |
| daniel | * I'm successfully deploying a SvelteKit project without issues using buildNpmPackage, can be seen here for reference: https://github.com/danielalvsaaker/tf-viewer-net/blob/main/frontend/default.nix | 22:56:55 |

do I need that wrapper? | 22:57:43 |
| Lily Foster | i guess you don't need it | 22:58:10 |

| Lily Foster | i assumed you wanted something to run it like the sveltekit docs were suggesting | 22:58:20 |
| peter-lustig | In reply to @lily:lily.flowers
i assumed you wanted something to run it like the sveltekit docs were suggesting basically, my goal is to just get it with inputs.sveltekit-package.${pkgs.system}.default; and it does all the stuff. I run it on nginx | 22:59:51 |
| peter-lustig | then I would just set the proxypass and it communicates with the db and done | 23:00:20 |
| peter-lustig | that is the plan at least | 23:00:29 |
| Lily Foster | What's it there? Like do you want a script to run it? (like the wrapper makes?) | 23:01:44 |
| peter-lustig | In reply to @lily:lily.flowers
What's it there? Like do you want a script to run it? (like the wrapper makes?) yes, I guess it needs to somehow run permanently. SvelteKit docs say: You can then start your app with this command: node build | 23:03:25 |
| Lily Foster | yeah the wrapper would replace that | 23:03:57 |
| Lily Foster | and do that for you | 23:04:00 |
| Lily Foster | but like, you'd still have to start the wrapper somehow | 23:04:16 |
| Lily Foster | If it's nixos, just making it a systemd service would be easiest, but otherwise you could come up with something else | 23:04:42 |
