# Runtime Config
|
|
|
|
Nuxt provides a runtime config API to expose config within your application and server routes with the ability to update them at runtime using environment variables.
|
|
|
|
## Exposing runtime config
|
|
|
|
To expose config and environment variables to the rest of your app, you will need to define runtime configuration in your `nuxt.config` file, using the [`runtimeConfig` option](/guide/directory-structure/nuxt.config#runtimeconfig).
|
|
|
|
**Example:**
|
|
|
|
```ts [nuxt.config.ts]
|
|
export default defineNuxtConfig({
|
|
runtimeConfig: {
|
|
// The private keys which are only available within server-side
|
|
apiSecret: '123',
|
|
// Keys within public, will be also exposed to the client-side
|
|
public: {
|
|
apiBase: '/api'
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
When adding `apiBase` to the `runtimeConfig.public`, Nuxt adds it to each page payload. We can universally access `apiBase` in both server and browser.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const runtimeConfig = useRuntimeConfig()
|
|
|
|
console.log(runtimeConfig.apiSecret)
|
|
console.log(runtimeConfig.public.apiBase)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Environment Variables
|
|
|
|
The most common way to provide configuration is by using [Environment Variables](https://medium.com/chingu/an-introduction-to-environment-variables-and-how-to-use-them-f602f66d15fa).
|
|
Nuxt CLI has built-in [dotenv](https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv) support.
|
|
|
|
In addition to any process environment variables, if you have a `.env` file in your project root directory, it will be automatically loaded into `process.env` and accessible within your `nuxt.config` file and modules.
|
|
|
|
Runtime config values are automatically replaced by matching environment variables at runtime.
|
|
|
|
**Example:**
|
|
|
|
```sh [.env]
|
|
NUXT_API_SECRET=api_secret_token
|
|
NUXT_PUBLIC_BASE_URL=https://nuxtjs.org
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```ts [nuxt.config.ts]
|
|
export default defineNuxtConfig({
|
|
runtimeConfig: {
|
|
apiSecret: '',
|
|
public: {
|
|
apiBase: '', // Or a default value
|
|
}
|
|
},
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Accessing runtime config
|
|
|
|
### Vue app
|
|
|
|
Within the Vue part of your Nuxt app, you will need to call `useRuntimeConfig()` to access the runtime config.
|
|
|
|
**Note:** Behavior is different between the client-side and server-side:
|
|
|
|
- On the client-side, only keys in `public` are available, and the object is both writable and reactive.
|
|
The entire runtime config is available on the server-side, but it is read-only to avoid context sharing.
|
|
|
|
```vue
|
|
<template>
|
|
<div>
|
|
<div>Check developer console!</div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
</template>
|
|
|
|
<script setup>
|
|
const config = useRuntimeConfig()
|
|
console.log('Runtime config:', config)
|
|
if (process.server) {
|
|
console.log('API secret:', config.apiSecret)
|
|
}
|
|
</script>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**🛑 Security note:** Be careful not to expose runtime config keys to the client-side by either rendering them or passing them to `useState`.
|
|
|
|
::alert{icon=👉}
|
|
**`useRuntimeConfig` only works during `setup` or `Lifecycle Hooks`**.
|
|

|
|
|
### Plugins
|
|
|
|
If you want to use the runtime config within any (custom) plugin, you can use `useRuntimeConfig()` inside of your `defineNuxtPlugin` function.
|
|
|
|
For Example:
|
|
|
|
```ts
|
|
export default defineNuxtPlugin((nuxtApp) => {
|
|
const config = useRuntimeConfig()
|
|
console.log('API base URL:', config.public.apiBase)
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Server Routes
|
|
|
|
You can access runtime config within the server routes as well using `useRuntimeConfig`.
|
|
|
|
```ts
|
|
export default async () => {
|
|
const result = await $fetch('https://my.api.com/test', {
|
|
headers: {
|
|
Authorization: `Bearer ${useRuntimeConfig().apiSecret}`
|
|
}
|
|
})
|
|
return result
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Manually Typing Runtime Config
|
|
|
|
Nuxt tries to automatically generate a typescript interface from provided runtime config using [unjs/untyped](https://github.com/unjs/untyped)
|
|
|
|
It is also possible to type your runtime config manually:
|
|
|
|
```ts [index.d.ts]
|
|
declare module '@nuxt/schema' {
|
|
interface RuntimeConfig {
|
|
apiSecret: string
|
|
public: {
|
|
apiBase: string
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
// It is always important to ensure you import/export something when augmenting a type
|
|
export {}
|
|
```
