Determine whether deployment is prod or dev
Is there a way to determine, in the context of a Convex function, whether or not the deployment environment of that function is prod or dev? I know that I can facilitate this by manually setting env vars in each context, but it would be convenient if I were able to instead just reach for something like
process.env.CONVEX_DEPLOYMENT: "production" | "development".2 Replies
Yup, we're thinking about adding this!
Tactically I'd recommend setting just one env variable:
PROD=true in production, then new dev deployments can just check !process.env.PROD. Doing this once per project doesn't seem like a huge lift. I agree that setting things once per deployment would be a bigger hassle.
