How to automatically set DART_FLAGS=' ' on every Chromium startup

I use Ubuntu 14 and I want to run Chromium(which is called Dartium) from the Launcher and it automatically set DART_FLAGS='--enable_type_checks --enable_asserts' on every startup. At the moment I run Chromium using:

cd dartium
DART_FLAGS='--enable_type_checks --enable_asserts' ./chrome

But it's really annoying(

Solution

  • You can set environment variables in each supported operating system. In windows you can configure them using the control panel. In Linux using for example the ~/.bashrc file by adding export DART_FLAGS='--enable_type_checks --enable_asserts'. OSX probably similar. Changes might require a reboot (or just . ~/.bashrc in Linux).
