Title: Upload .env.example
, Remove .env
, and Update .gitignore
for Smoother Development
Description:
To ensure smoother collaboration and deployment, we need to make the following changes:
-
Upload a
.env.example
file:
This file should include all the necessary environment variables without any sensitive information (e.g., API keys, database credentials). It will serve as a reference for other developers to create their own.env
files. -
Remove the
.env
file from the repository:
Sensitive information should not be committed to version control. We'll remove the existing.env
file from the repository to ensure it isn't exposed. -
Update
.gitignore
:
Add the.env
file to.gitignore
to prevent it from being accidentally committed in the future.
Tasks:
- Create a
.env.example
file with placeholder values. - Remove the
.env
file from the repository. - Update
.gitignore
to exclude.env
.
