I personally use self hosted infisical instances for both work and personal projects and it has been the best tech I’ve integrated. The cli, sdk and api works all the way from dev env till kubernetes in production

Same here. I like it more than Hashicorp Vault but have to use Vault at work so I just use Infisical for personal projects

Prefer mise for these purposes Yeah, it still doesn’t load just .env on cd, but the other functions good enough

@ristomatti 2 ай бұрын

But it does. Or at it least from it's own config format. Better yet, it supports multiple environments you can easily switch between with. In my experience, it even handles the environment variable loading better then direnv (I used it in the past).

nix-env installation is pretty much going agains everything that nix stands for by bringing back the imperativeness they aimed to get rid. it's discouraged even in the docs.

@@devopstoolbox that's what nix shells are for. Polluting your profile is non maintainable long term. You of course can do it but by doing it you forfit all the benefits that come with declarative approach. I just don't want you to make a video in few weeks that "nix is not solving anything" based on your misuse of it. Especially when I saw in your other videos that you know better and yet you still promote bad practices. Remember that you have a lot of influence and therefore should be held to higher standards.

@@EmiNNsoNify maybe wording was not too great but my point is: nix guarantees X only if you follow A,B and C. While you can skip any of those it's not recommended. And I have seen too many times people ignoring e.g. A and claiming that they didn't get the X.

@@snieguzary maybe my wording wasn't the best. I know what nix offers, my point is you should get off your high horse. It doesn't matter which nix style he uses to install the tool. Using nix in the video is the biggest promo for nix and for people that are after "A and B and C must be done fox X" will find that for themselves. RTFM. Though to be honest Nix manual is not really friendly.

mise does this as well and in my experience does it better. Not only that, it can replace pyenv, nvm, etc. among other things. The only thing that annoys me with it, is the fact I watch the repo for new releases of which it can have several in a single day!

you know i have seen people using direnv etc but we use Makefiles where we declare everything within it and we run them only on the context of the executable the makefile might call there's other ways but eg `ENV=prod ./binary` , i never really found the need for direnv yet

@devopstoolbox 4 ай бұрын

@@garciajero valid point 👌 Most people don’t use makefiles tho, not sure why, maybe because of how many JS devs out there loving env files and don’t share the love for makefiles 🤷‍♂️ BTW I recently started working with Just and Task (the Rust / Go alternatives to make) and they’re awesome if you don’t need them to run on random remote machine you don’t control

if you enjoy make you should check out just/justfile. just uses the recipe idiom of make, while adding features and removing things like phony. I’ve been using it for a while as a script runner that’s independent of any build tool and i think it’s really nice

Dont save secrets in dot envelopes, instead encrypt? And where is that encryption key getting stored? Must be somewhere in the app or another file adding complexity for nothing. Just store stuff in dot envelopes without fear, if someone has access to that file encrypted or not you are in big trouble already coz if they can access that they can definitely access the decryption key. Just dont push it online and give necessary file permission that’s it, if u push it online simply change the secrets and u r good to go.

@devopstoolbox 3 ай бұрын

@@BarakaAndrew so it comes down to use case and process. Saying “just don’t push the key” is practical but GitHub is FILLED with leaked keys… I prefer secret stores within my CI system or a 3rd party. For small projects I’d either encrypt them or use the deployment platform to store them. Whatever I chose, I always try to avoid a situation where I have to remember to not push them or hide them in an ignore file. To me, this is calling for trouble
