react-native-envs-poc

Create staging & production environments for a react-native app, using react-native-config.

config

// .env
IS_PRODUCTION=false
API_HOST=https://api.staging.foobar.com

// .env.staging
IS_PRODUCTION=false
API_HOST=api_host

// .env.production
IS_PRODUCTION=true
API_HOST=api_host

.env is used for the local environment, while the other two for staging and production. The setup uses schemes on iOS and buildTypes on Android.

fastlane

I'm using fastlane to automate builds & reduce the app release to a one-liner script:

cd fastlane
fastlane ios beta --env=production

Also, I wrote an article that describes the whole process here.
