JavaScript Kite

JavaScript/TypeScript CLI tool that reports project metadata to the Kite monitoring API.

Installation

npm install --save-dev @concept7/kite

Requirements

• A .env file with an ENV or ENVIRONMENT variable (with or without a framework prefix)
• A .nvmrc file and/or a node version in package.json:

{
    "engines": {
        "node": ">=18"
    }
}

Configuration

Add the KITE_TOKEN to your .env file (generated from the Kite Dashboard):

KITE_TOKEN=your-kite-token

NOTE: Do not prefix this variable with EXPO_PUBLIC_, VITE_, NG_APP_, etc. This variable is only used by the CLI tool, not by your framework.
