This is a simple note to show how to access GitHub Secrets with Python.
First, to add a new secret, go to GitHub repository > Settings > Secrets > New Repository Secret.
Second, define a Name ('SEC_NAME') and put in the Value.
Next, map them as environment variables in GitHub Actions Workflow.
....
- name: Run tests
env:
API_KEY: ${{ secrets.SEC_NAME }}
run: |
....
Finally, refer to the env variable in Python script.
import os
API_KEY = os.environ['API_KEY']
