Ruby on Rails Sunday, June 9, 2019

In some apps I've worked on Rails 5.1 and prior, environment variables, saved directly into the source code.

In rails 5.2 Custom credentials encourages us to check-in only the encrypted version of our configuration, and keep our master.key keyfile outside of our repository. 

My question is this: Is there a way to segregate by environment? (i.e., development, staging, production?)

seems like the instructions for setting up AWS keys, for example, would have the dev, staging + production all pointing to & using the same AWS bucket, access key, and secret. But it seems like for many services I'd want to have different credentials for different environments. 

I found this SO post that discusses this question, but unfortunately it doesn't present a very good answer IMHO because the there are only two answers: 1) I don't quite understand and 2) a suggestion to basically check all your ENV variables against each of your environments, which seems like it could encourage a messy setup. I much like answer #1 from this SO post, but I don't understand how to implement it practically. 


any tip appreciated. 
Thanks,
Jason
