How to read Environment variables on virtual host in Nodejs app?

[mazinger]

Hello everyone, how can I read an environment variable, (Virtual Host - External App) in a NodeJS application?

I have tried process.env.TESTVAR but it is undefined

Thank you!

Hi,
If you set up the NodeJS with the App Context method, then you could add env variable from there.

Hi Cold-Egg, yes I configured the App with nodejs correctly, App run ok, but cannot access to environment variables, for example:

In Environment have this variable:
TESTVAR='Hello'

In Node App:
const testVar = process.env.TESTVAR
console.log(TESTVAR). ->result undefined

What's wrong?
Thanks

From my test, it works.

The attached file is the OLS configuration.

app.js

const http = require('http');

const hostname = '127.0.0.1';
const port = 3000;

const testVar = process.env.TESTVAR

const server = http.createServer((req, res) => {
  res.statusCode = 200;
  res.setHeader('Content-Type', 'text/plain');
  res.end(`${testVar}`);
});

server.listen(port, hostname, () => {
  console.log(`Server running at http://:/`);
});

And page returns a "Hello" correctly.

Please make sure to restart the lsnode process with kill -9 PID command if you have any changes to the code.
