Self Hosted App with Convex on cloud

I have a web app that I self-host using docker and I am able to get things into the convex DB that is on the cloud but I was wondering if there was a better way that I should be doing it. This is my current workflow: code > github actions > deploy code to server > build Dockerfile with 
docker compose build --build-arg CONVEX_DEPLOY_KEY=${{ secrets.CONVEX_DEPLOY_KEY }}
docker compose build --build-arg CONVEX_DEPLOY_KEY=${{ secrets.CONVEX_DEPLOY_KEY }}
. and the 
CONVEX_DEPLOY_KEY
CONVEX_DEPLOY_KEY
 is in my Dockerfile like this:
ARG CONVEX_DEPLOY_KEY
ENV CONVEX_DEPLOY_KEY=${CONVEX_DEPLOY_KEY}
ARG CONVEX_DEPLOY_KEY
ENV CONVEX_DEPLOY_KEY=${CONVEX_DEPLOY_KEY}


Are there other ways that I should be doing this to follow best practices?

Hi @everyone with everything going on today I forgot to post on discord about our EU launch! We have a region in Dublin now! You can start using it immediately, even for folks on the free plan. https://news.convex.dev/we-finally-got-our-eu-visa/ Stay tuned for more regions but also stay tuned for more infra improvements where we improve latency for teams no matter where their servers are located. Just at the tip of the iceberg re all the optimizations we have lined up.
