Linear Multi-Environment Setup

Linear Multi-Environment Setup

Overview

Configure Linear integrations across dev, staging, and production with isolated API keys, secret management, environment guards, and per-environment webhook routing. Use separate Linear workspaces or at minimum separate API keys per environment.

Prerequisites

• Separate Linear API keys per environment (dev, staging, prod)
• Secret management (Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, GCP Secret Manager)
• CI/CD pipeline with environment support
• Node.js 18+

Instructions

Step 1: Environment Configuration

// src/config/linear.ts
import { LinearClient } from "@linear/sdk";

interface LinearEnvConfig {
  apiKey: string;
  webhookSecret: string;
  defaultTeamKey: string;
  enableWebhooks: boolean;
  enableDebugLogging: boolean;
  cacheEnabled: boolean;
}

type Environment = "development" | "staging" | "production" | "test";

function getEnvironment(): Environment {
  const env = process.env.NODE_ENV ?? "development";
  if (!["development", "staging", "production", "test"].includes(env)) {
    throw new Error(`Unknown NODE_ENV: ${env}`);
  }
  return env as Environment;
}
