    "deploy-production": "client-publish deploy --target-env production"
  }
}

Set up deployment for master and production branch.

# master branch
export REDIRECTOR_API_SECRET=REDIRECTOR_API_SECRET_STAGING
export FIREBASE_DEPLOY=true # enables deploying to Firebase
export FIREBASE_PROJECT=FIREBASE_PROJECT_STAGING
export FIREBASE_SITE=FIREBASE_SITE_STAGING
export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS_JSON=GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS_JSON_STAGING
npm run build
npm run deploy-staging

# production branch
export REDIRECTOR_API_SECRET=REDIRECTOR_API_SECRET_STAGING
export FIREBASE_DEPLOY=true # enables deploying to Firebase
export FIREBASE_PROJECT=FIREBASE_PROJECT_STAGING
export FIREBASE_SITE=FIREBASE_SITE_STAGING
export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS_JSON=GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS_JSON_STAGING
npm run build
npm run deploy-production

Legacy Usage

For compatibility with older versions this package also exposes four other commands:

• client-deploy: deploy application
• client-deploy-staging: sets defaults for staging and deploy application
• client-deploy-production: sets defaults for production and deploy application
• client-merge: merge and push to production from master

To use these commands the environment variables in the Deployment Configuration section must be present. You can also use these commands npm scripts.

{
  "scripts": {
    "deploy-staging": "client-deploy-staging",
    "deploy-production": "client-deploy-production",
    "merge-production": "client-merge"
  }
}
