Meteor: How to pass a value to a Meteor.settings variable from terminal?

Here is a code I have in my serveur directory in a file called main.js:

if (Meteor.isServer) {
    Meteor.startup(function() {
        return Meteor.Mandrill.config({
            username: Meteor.settings.username_mail,
            key: Meteor.settings.key_mail
        });
    });

    }

I am using Mandrill to send e-mail and I would like to know how can I set the following 

username: Meteor.settings.username_mail,
key: Meteor.settings.key_mail

I tried to run export METEOR_SETTINGS='{"username_mail":"user@mail.com", "key_mail":"fjbvbfvbfbvfjvf”}’ in my terminal but is does not work. I just can not figure out a way to configure it form the terminal.

Thanks.

Solution

  • meteor --settings yoursettings.json

    If only there were some official docs which explained such basic things.
