Expo Deploy

Bash script to deploy to different Expo environments.

It switches the relevant json file to be app.json before running the correct commands.

Setup

• npm install exp -g
• Place the deploy script in your root directory
• Add the relevant config files as shown in this example repository
• Add /app.json to your .gitignore.

Usage

• Publish: ./deploy publish [environment]
• Build: ./deploy build [environment] (builds both IPA + APK files)
• Development: You'll want to copy the correct app file manually. E.g: cp ./config/staging.json ./app.json && react-native-scripts start. I haven't thought of a better way to do this yet.

Local Exp

It's also possible to have exp installed locally. To do this:

• npm install exp --save-dev
• In your package.json, call the shell script through npm scripts. This is how I do it:

  •   "publish": "chmod +x ./deploy.sh && ./deploy.sh publish $ENVIRONMENT",
      "build": "chmod +x ./deploy.sh && ./deploy.sh build $ENVIRONMENT"
    

  • Run withENVIRONMENT=staging npm run publish or ENVIRONMENT=staging npm run build
