如何在Rails 5中更改默认的secrets.yml文件

Question

I accidentally uploaded my secrets.yml file to Github. I changed my credentials and moved it to a new secrets_final.yml file that I've property setup in gitignore. Problem now is unless I hardcode credentials, the environment variables don't seem to pull from this new file.

How do I change default secrets location?

Answer 1

I figured out how to get gitignore to stop tracking a file as when I added it to gitignore file, it still tracked file because it was cached. No need to change defaults secrets.yml - just remove cache and use same file. Answer is here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/11451731/5551783
