Environment configuration variables
The following configuration variables can be set to control the Starter App behaviour. Most of them have defaults that work for development environment. For production deploys most should be set.
| Variable | Description |
|---|---|
| REACT_APP_GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY | See: Google Maps API key |
| REACT_APP_SHARETRIBE_SDK_CLIENT_ID | Client ID (API key). You will get this from the Sharetribe team. |
| REACT_APP_STRIPE_PUBLISHABLE_KEY | Stripe publishable API key for generating tokens with Stripe API. Use test key (prefix pktest) for development. |
| REACT_APP_SHARETRIBE_SDK_BASE_URL | The base url to access the Sharetribe Flex Marketplace API. |
| REACT_APP_SHARETRIBE_MARKETPLACE_CURRENCY | The currency used in the Marketplace as ISO 4217 currency code. For example: USD, EUR, CAD, AUD, etc. |
| REACT_APP_CANONICAL_ROOT_URL | Canonical root url of the marketplace. Needed for social media sharing and SEO optimization. |
| NODE_ENV | Node env. Use 'development' for development and 'production' for production. |
| PORT | Port for server to accept connections. |
| REACT_APP_ENV | Env for client side. Use the same value as with NODE_ENV. |
| REACT_APP_SHARETRIBE_USING_SSL | Redirect HTTP to HTTPS? |
| SERVER_SHARETRIBE_TRUST_PROXY | Set when running the app behind a reverse proxy, e.g. in Heroku. |

Defining configuration
When the Starter App is started locally with yarn run dev or yarn run dev-server, you can set
environment variables by using the (gitignored) .env file. The repository contains a template file
.env-template with default configuration. Just copy that as .env and edit as necessary.
In production, it's recommended that you set the configuration via env variables and do not deploy an .env file. The client application will only be packaged with env variables that start with REACT_APP. This way server secrets don't end up in client bundles.
With deploys note that the configuration options are bundled in the client package at build time. The configuration of the build environment must match run environment for things to work consistently. To apply changes to configuration values client bundle must be rebuilt. Just restarting the server is not enough.
