What to Do in This Phase

1. Prepare Deployment Environment: Infrastructure setup
2. Build: Create production build
3. Execute Deployment: Actual deployment
4. Verification: Post-deployment operation check

CI/CD Environment Variable Configuration

GitHub Actions

# .github/workflows/deploy.yml

  push:
    branches: [main, staging]

jobs:
  deploy:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:

        run: |
          if [ "${{ github.ref }}" == "refs/heads/main" ]; then
            echo "DEPLOY_ENV=production" >> $GITHUB_ENV
          else
            echo "DEPLOY_ENV=staging" >> $GITHUB_ENV

          # General environment variables (can be exposed)
          NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL: ${{ vars.APP_URL }}
          NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL: ${{ vars.API_URL }}

          # Secrets (sensitive info)
          DATABASE_URL: ${{ secrets.DATABASE_URL }}
          AUTH_SECRET: ${{ secrets.AUTH_SECRET }}
          API_STRIPE_SECRET: ${{ secrets.API_STRIPE_SECRET }}
        run: npm  

          
        
             
         

GitHub Secrets Configuration Guide

Repository Settings → Secrets and variables → Actions

1. Repository secrets (sensitive info)
   ├── DATABASE_URL
   ├── AUTH_SECRET
   ├── API_STRIPE_SECRET
   └── VERCEL_TOKEN

2. Repository variables (general settings)
   ├── APP_URL
   ├── API_URL
   └── NODE_ENV

3. Environment-specific secrets
   ├── production/
   │   ├── DATABASE_URL (production DB)
   │   └── API_STRIPE_SECRET (live key)
   └── staging/
       ├── DATABASE_URL (staging DB)
       └── API_STRIPE_SECRET (test key)

Vercel Environment Variable Configuration

Project Settings → Environment Variables

┌─────────────────┬─────────────┬─────────────┬─────────────┐
│ Variable Name   │ Development │ Preview     │ Production  │
├─────────────────┼─────────────┼─────────────┼─────────────┤
│ DATABASE_URL    │ dev-db      │ staging-db  │ prod-db     │
│ AUTH_SECRET     │ dev-secret  │ stg-secret  │ prod-secret │

└─────────────────┴─────────────┴─────────────┴─────────────┘

Configuration steps:
1. Project Settings → Environment Variables
2. Add New Variable
3. Select environment (Development / Preview / Production)
4. Check Sensitive (if sensitive info)

Secrets Management Strategy

Level-wise Secrets Management

Level	Secrets Management Method	Tools
Starter	CI/CD platform Secrets	GitHub Secrets, Vercel
Dynamic	CI/CD + environment separation	GitHub Environments
Enterprise	Dedicated Secrets Manager	Vault, AWS Secrets Manager

Starter/Dynamic: CI/CD Secrets

# Usage in GitHub Actions
- name: Deploy
  env:
    DB_PASSWORD: ${{ secrets.DB_PASSWORD }}

Enterprise: HashiCorp Vault

# Fetch Secrets from Vault
- name: Import Secrets from Vault
  uses: hashicorp/vault-action@v2
  with:
    url: https://vault.company.com
    token: ${{ secrets.VAULT_TOKEN }}
    secrets: |
      secret/data/myapp/production db_password | DB_PASSWORD ;
      secret/data/myapp/production api_key | API_KEY

Enterprise: AWS Secrets Manager

// lib/secrets.ts
import { SecretsManagerClient, GetSecretValueCommand } from "@aws-sdk/client-secrets-manager";

const client = new SecretsManagerClient({ region: "ap-northeast-2" });

export async function getSecret(secretName: string): Promise<Record<string, string>> {
  const command = new GetSecretValueCommand({ SecretId: secretName });
  const response = await client.send(command);

  if (response.SecretString) {
    return JSON.parse(response.SecretString);
  }
  throw new Error(`Secret ${secretName} not found`);
}

// Usage
const dbSecrets = await getSecret("myapp/production/database");
// { host: "...", password: "...", ... }

---

Environment-specific Build Configuration

Next.js Environment Configuration

// next.config.js
/** @type {import('next').NextConfig} */
const nextConfig = {
  // Environment-specific settings
  env: {
    NEXT_PUBLIC_ENV: process.env.NODE_ENV,
  },

  // Environment-specific redirects
  async redirects() {
    if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production') {
      return [
        { source: '/debug', destination: '/', permanent: false },
      ];
    }
    return [];
  },
};

module.exports = nextConfig;

Environment-specific API Endpoints

// lib/config.ts
const config = {
  development: {
    apiUrl: 'http://localhost:3001',
    debug: true,
  },
  staging: {
    apiUrl: 'https://api-staging.myapp.com',
    debug: true,
  },
  production: {
    apiUrl: 'https://api.myapp.com',
    debug: false,
  },
} as const;

type Environment = keyof typeof config;

const env = (process.env.NODE_ENV || 'development') as Environment;
export const appConfig = config[env];

Environment Variable Validation (Pre-deployment)

Required Variable Check Script

#!/usr/bin/env node
// scripts/check-env.js

const REQUIRED_VARS = [
  'DATABASE_URL',
  'AUTH_SECRET',
  'NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL'
];

const missing = REQUIRED_VARS.filter(v => !process.env[v]);

if (missing.length > 0) {
  console.error('❌ Missing required environment variables:');
  missing.forEach(v => console.error(`  - ${v}`));
  process.exit(1);
}

console.log('✅ All required environment variables are set');

Validation in CI/CD

# GitHub Actions
- name: Validate Environment
  run: node scripts/check-env.js
  env:
    DATABASE_URL: ${{ secrets.DATABASE_URL }}
    AUTH_SECRET: ${{ secrets.AUTH_SECRET }}
    NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL: ${{ vars.APP_URL }}

---

Environment Variable Management Checklist

Pre-deployment

• Secrets Registration

  • DATABASE_URL (per environment)
  • AUTH_SECRET (per environment)
  • External API keys (per environment)

• Environment Separation

  • Development / Staging / Production distinction
  • Per-environment database separation
  • Per-environment external service key separation (test/live)

• Validation

  • Run required variable check script
  • Build test

Post-deployment

• Operation Check

  • Verify environment variables are injected correctly
  • External service integration test

• Security Check

  • Verify no sensitive info in logs
  • Verify no server-only variables exposed to client

---
