Topic: Hiding the Gitlab Access Token
Expected behavior I am trying to hide the gitlab access token in my package json but am unclear how to accomplish this with environment variables. Unforunately, I cannot install via SSH as there are errors that are unresolvable.
Actual behavior I am struggling to access .env variables within my package.json... I have dotenv installed but not sure where to require it given I need to access the environment variables from within package.json .. How is this accomplished?
Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.) *.env file*
MDB_TOKEN="someSecret"
MDB_URL="git.mdbootstrap.com/mdb/react/mdb5/prd/mdb5-react-ui-kit-pro-essential"
** package.json scripts **

"start": "webpack serve --config config/webpack.dev.js",
"build": "webpack --config config/webpack.prod.js",
"postinstall": "npm install git+https://${MDB_TOKEN}@${MDB_URL}"
},

Hi!
Can you try correcting the script from
npm install git+https://${MDB_TOKEN}@${MDB_URL}tonpm install git+https://oauth2:${MDB_TOKEN}@${MDB_URL}?
