A while back I set up a heroku app for my express.js API. I set this up so that when I push to GitHub it automatically deploys to heroku. All works fine except for one thing, my secrets. I store them I a .env file and all works fine. Only problem is because they are in my .gitignore they are not pushed to the repo which causes my heroku app to malfunction. This might be a duplicate but I can't find my answer. I would appreciate your help. Thanks in advance!
