Discussion on: How to structure your Express and Node.Js project

[Adhir Kirtikar]

Thanks for the reply and link.
I used docker to containerize the node.js express app and used GitHub action to add the .env file in the container. I googled this method when I was doing the DEV project. But I think that if someone gets the docker image then they can easily find out the .env file. :D
So I wanted to know what’s the industry standard used to deploy this .env file.

docker-build.yml:

        name: Make envfile
        uses: SpicyPizza/create-envfile@v1
        with:
          envkey_DB_USER: ${{ secrets.DB_USER }}
          envkey_DB_PASS: ${{ secrets.DB_PASS }}
          envkey_DB_NAME: ${{ secrets.DB_NAME }}
          directory: /home/runner/work/IMDb-MongoDb/IMDb-MongoDb
          file_name: .env    ```
