Angular

1. Install the Onboardbase CLI

npm i -g @onboardbase/cli@latest

2. In development: login

In your project folder, run the login command:

`onboardbase login`

Open the authorization page in your browser and enter your email. A confirmation link will be sent to the email. Click the link, and your CLI should be authorized. Check your terminal to confirm.

3. In production: use a service token

Running the onboardbase login command creates an access token to Onboardbase. This is useful to quickly get developers started and monitor secret usage, but not suitable for a production environment. Instead, you need to create a Service Token for machine-to-machine authentication.

1. Create a service token from the web dashboard

1. Login to your Onboardbase account as an admin
2. Click the profile icon in the navbar
3. Scroll to the Service Token section
4. Click Generate token button
5. Enter the name of the service
6. Click on Generate to finalize

2. Add the service token to your Angular project

🚧

A service token contains sensitive information.

Leaking your service token gives access to your other secrets, so make sure to use it wisely and never store it in your git history or server logs.

This method persists the service token in the configuration settings, so it's useful in server and VM environments to prevent re-authenticating the CLI on every restart.

1. Prevent the service token from being leaked in the bash log history:

export HISTIGNORE='onboardbase*'

2. Define the service token in the configuration settings:

onboardbase config:set --token "Service.****.****.*****" --scope /usr/src/app

4. Setup

Run the setup command to create a configuration file containing your project name and your desired environment:

onboardbase setup

5. Run your project

You can use the CLI to output your secrets as environment variables:

onboardbase secrets -p "my project" -e "development" -
-json

You can then paste them in your environment.ts file:

export const environment = <onboardbase secrets output>

You can then simply start your development server as usual:

npm run dev
