Environment Variables

Grafbase supports the use of environment variables inside of the file schema.graphql.

Inside of your local grafbase folder you can create the file .env that contains the key/value pairs that match those used inside of your schema.

Here we can have a schema with the OIDC issuer URL set as an environment variable:

import { auth, config, g } from '@grafbase/sdk'

const provider = auth.OpenIDConnect({
  issuer: '{{ env.ISSUER_URL }}'
})

export default config({
  schema: g,
  auth: {
    providers: [provider]
  }
})

In production these will read from your Grafbase project settings, but locally you'll want to set these to read from your local grafbase/.env file:

ISSUER_URL=https://...
