[improvement] Pulling AWS credentials from ENV variables instead of hardcoding it in aws.yml file

[ghost]

I changed my config/initializers/s3_multipart.rb to look like this:

S3Multipart.configure do |config|
config.bucket_name = ENV['AWS_S3_BUCKET'],
config.s3_access_key = ENV['AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID'],
config.s3_secret_key = ENV['AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'],
config.revision = "0.0.10.6"
end

I like to have a hardcode version for development, so I modified it to take both. This way you don't need to set env variables on local dev environment. Just make sure to add aws.yml to your .gitignore

if Rails.env == "development"
  AWS_Config = YAML.load_file("config/aws.yml")[Rails.env]

  S3Multipart.configure do |config|
    config.bucket_name   = AWS_Config['bucket']
    config.s3_access_key = AWS_Config['access_key_id']
    config.s3_secret_key = AWS_Config['secret_access_key']
    config.revision      = AWS_Config['revision']
  end
else
  S3Multipart.configure do |config|
    config.bucket_name = ENV['AWS_S3_BUCKET'],
    config.s3_access_key = ENV['AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID'],
    config.s3_secret_key = ENV['AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'],
    config.revision = "0.0.10.6"
  end
end
