Undocumented variable in .env.template

[lopesra]

When setting up the .env configuration, its template contains the parameter NUXT_PRIVATE_REMOTES={ "media": {"id": "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxx", "locale": "en_GB"} }. Unfortunately the documentation doesn't tell how this parameter is supposed to be setup.

Bump!

@lopesra did you figure this out already?

Hey Rafael and Kevin
I hope you're both fine.
I don't know why this issue hasn't been answered for almost a year, but I hope it hasn't been blocking you since!

This line suggests, that the example projects runtime configuration can handle values for remotes as string and as object:
https://github.com/e-Spirit/crownpeak-pwa-template/blob/main/utils/fsxa.ts#L313

runtimeConfig.private.remotes
      ? typeof runtimeConfig.private.remotes === 'string'
        ? JSON.parse(runtimeConfig.private.remotes)
        : runtimeConfig.private.remotes
      : {}

So without further verification I'd say, both examples should work.
NUXT_PRIVATE_REMOTES={ "media": {"id": "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxx", "locale": "en_GB"} }
NUXT_PRIVATE_REMOTES="{ \"media\": {\"id\": \"xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxx\", \"locale\": \"en_GB\"} }"

Please note:

• This project is just an example and is meant to be customized.
• There is no general answer here, as your project might use a different solution for parsing runtime configuration.
• All remote projects are using the FSXARemoteApiConfig.apikey, so the key needs to have read permissions for those projects.

Please let us know, when you could solve the issue and how you did it.
Thank you
